# Introduction
|
||
|
||
This directory contains software developed by Ultralytics LLC. For more information on Ultralytics projects please visit:

# Description
|
||
|
||
The https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov3 repo contains code to train YOLOv3 on the COCO dataset: https://cocodataset.org/#home. **Credit to Joseph Redmon for YOLO** (https://pjreddie.com/darknet/yolo/) and to **Erik Lindernoren for the pytorch implementation** this work is based on (https://github.com/eriklindernoren/PyTorch-YOLOv3).
|
||
|
||
# Requirements
|
||
|
||
Python 3.6 or later with the following `pip3 install -U -r requirements.txt` packages:
|
||
|
||
- `numpy`
|
||
- `torch`
|
||
- `opencv-python`
|
||
|
||
# Training
|
||
|
||
Run `train.py` to begin training after downloading COCO data with `data/get_coco_dataset.sh`. Each epoch trains on 120,000 images from the train and validate COCO sets, and tests on 5000 images from the COCO validate set. An Nvidia GTX 1080 Ti will process ~16 epochs per day. Loss plots for the bounding boxes, objectness and class confidence should appear similar to results shown here (coming soon)
|
||
|
||
|
||
# Inference
|
||
|
||
Checkpoints will be saved in `/checkpoints` directory. Run `detect.py` to apply trained weights to an image, such as `zidane.jpg` from the `data/samples` folder, shown here.
|
||
|
||
|
||
# Testing
|
||
|
||
Run `test.py` to test the latest checkpoint on the 5000 validation images. Joseph Redmon's official YOLOv3 weights produce a mAP of .581 using this method, compared to .579 in his paper.
