Table Notes (click to expand)

• AP^test denotes COCO test-dev2017 server results, all other AP results denote val2017 accuracy.
• AP values are for single-model single-scale unless otherwise noted. Reproduce mAP by python test.py --data coco.yaml --img 640 --conf 0.001 --iou 0.65
• Speed_GPU averaged over 5000 COCO val2017 images using a GCP n1-standard-16 V100 instance, and includes FP16 inference, postprocessing and NMS. Reproduce speed by python test.py --data coco.yaml --img 640 --conf 0.25 --iou 0.45
• All checkpoints are trained to 300 epochs with default settings and hyperparameters (no autoaugmentation).
• Test Time Augmentation (TTA) includes reflection and scale augmentation. Reproduce TTA by python test.py --data coco.yaml --img 1536 --iou 0.7 --augment

Inference

detect.py runs inference on a variety of sources, downloading models automatically from the latest YOLOv5 release and saving results to runs/detect.

$ python detect.py --source 0  # webcam
                            file.jpg  # image 
                            file.mp4  # video
                            path/  # directory
                            path/*.jpg  # glob
                            'https://youtu.be/NUsoVlDFqZg'  # YouTube video
                            'rtsp://example.com/media.mp4'  # RTSP, RTMP, HTTP stream

To run inference on example images in data/images:

$ python detect.py --source data/images --weights yolov5s.pt --conf 0.25

Namespace(agnostic_nms=False, augment=False, classes=None, conf_thres=0.25, device='', exist_ok=False, img_size=640, iou_thres=0.45, name='exp', project='runs/detect', save_conf=False, save_txt=False, source='data/images/', update=False, view_img=False, weights=['yolov5s.pt'])

PyTorch Hub

Inference with YOLOv5 and PyTorch Hub:

import torch

# Model
model = torch.hub.load('ultralytics/yolov5', 'yolov5s')

# Image
img = 'https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5/raw/master/data/images/zidane.jpg'

# Inference
results = model(img)
results.print()  # or .show(), .save()

Training

Run commands below to reproduce results on COCO dataset (dataset auto-downloads on first use). Training times for YOLOv5s/m/l/x are 2/4/6/8 days on a single V100 (multi-GPU times faster). Use the largest --batch-size your GPU allows (batch sizes shown for 16 GB devices).

$ python train.py --data coco.yaml --cfg yolov5s.yaml --weights '' --batch-size 64
                                         yolov5m                                40
