This repository represents Ultralytics open-source research into future object detection methods, and incorporates our lessons learned and best practices evolved over training thousands of models on custom client datasets with our previous YOLO repository https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov3. **All code and models are under active development, and are subject to modification or deletion without notice.** Use at your own risk.
** GPU Speed measures end-to-end time per image averaged over 5000 COCO val2017 images using a V100 GPU with batch size 8, and includes image preprocessing, PyTorch FP16 inference, postprocessing and NMS.
- **June 22, 2020**: [PANet](https://arxiv.org/abs/1803.01534) updates: increased layers, reduced parameters, faster inference and improved mAP [364fcfd](https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5/commit/364fcfd7dba53f46edd4f04c037a039c0a287972).
- **June 19, 2020**: [FP16](https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/nn.html#torch.nn.Module.half) as new default for smaller checkpoints and faster inference [d4c6674](https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5/commit/d4c6674c98e19df4c40e33a777610a18d1961145).
- **June 9, 2020**: [CSP](https://github.com/WongKinYiu/CrossStagePartialNetworks) updates: improved speed, size, and accuracy. Credit to @WongKinYiu for excellent CSP work.
- **May 27, 2020**: Public release of repo. YOLOv5 models are SOTA among all known YOLO implementations, YOLOv5 family will be undergoing architecture research and development over Q2/Q3 2020 to increase performance. Updates may include [CSP](https://github.com/WongKinYiu/CrossStagePartialNetworks) bottlenecks, [YOLOv4](https://github.com/AlexeyAB/darknet) features, as well as PANet or BiFPN heads.
- **April 1, 2020**: Begin development of a 100% PyTorch, scaleable YOLOv3/4-based group of future models, in a range of compound-scaled sizes. Models will be defined by new user-friendly `*.yaml` files. New training methods will be simpler to start, faster to finish, and more robust to training a wider variety of custom dataset.

** APtest denotes COCO [test-dev2017](http://cocodataset.org/#upload) server results, all other AP results in the table denote val2017 accuracy.
** All AP numbers are for single-model single-scale without ensemble or test-time augmentation. Reproduce by `python test.py --img 736 --conf 0.001`
** SpeedGPU measures end-to-end time per image averaged over 5000 COCO val2017 images using a GCP [n1-standard-16](https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/machine-types#n1_standard_machine_types) instance with one V100 GPU, and includes image preprocessing, PyTorch FP16 image inference at --batch-size 32 --img-size 640, postprocessing and NMS. Average NMS time included in this chart is 1-2ms/img. Reproduce by `python test.py --img 640 --conf 0.1`
** All checkpoints are trained to 300 epochs with default settings and hyperparameters (no autoaugmentation).

## Inference
Inference can be run on most common media formats. Model [checkpoints](https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Drs_Aiu7xx6S-ix95f9kNsA6ueKRpN2J) are downloaded automatically if available. Results are saved to `./inference/output`.
```bash
$ python detect.py --source file.jpg # image
file.mp4 # video
./dir # directory
