Usage examples for running YOLOv8:
1. Install the ultralytics package:
pip install ultralytics
2. Use the Python SDK:
from ultralytics import YOLO
# Load a model
model = YOLO('yolov8n.yaml') # build a new model from scratch
model = YOLO("yolov8n.pt") # load a pretrained model (recommended for training)
# Use the model
results = model.train(data="coco128.yaml", epochs=3) # train the model
results = model.val() # evaluate model performance on the validation set
results = model('https://ultralytics.com/images/bus.jpg') # predict on an image
success = model.export(format='onnx') # export the model to ONNX format
3. Use the command line interface (CLI):
YOLOv8 'yolo' CLI commands use the following syntax:
yolo TASK MODE ARGS
Where TASK (optional) is one of [detect, segment, classify]
MODE (required) is one of [train, val, predict, export]
ARGS (optional) are any number of custom 'arg=value' pairs like 'imgsz=320' that override defaults.
See all ARGS at https://docs.ultralytics.com/usage/cfg or with 'yolo cfg'
- Train a detection model for 10 epochs with an initial learning_rate of 0.01
yolo detect train data=coco128.yaml model=yolov8n.pt epochs=10 lr0=0.01
- Predict a YouTube video using a pretrained segmentation model at image size 320:
yolo segment predict model=yolov8n-seg.pt source='https://youtu.be/Zgi9g1ksQHc' imgsz=320
- Val a pretrained detection model at batch-size 1 and image size 640:
yolo detect val model=yolov8n.pt data=coco128.yaml batch=1 imgsz=640
- Export a YOLOv8n classification model to ONNX format at image size 224 by 128 (no TASK required)
yolo export model=yolov8n-cls.pt format=onnx imgsz=224,128
- Run special commands:
yolo help
yolo checks
yolo version
yolo settings
yolo copy-cfg
yolo cfg
