Introduction

This directory contains PyTorch YOLOv3 software developed by Ultralytics LLC, and is freely available for redistribution under the GPL-3.0 license. For more information please visit https://www.ultralytics.com.

Description

The https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov3 repo contains inference and training code for YOLOv3 in PyTorch. The code works on Linux, MacOS and Windows. Training is done on the COCO dataset by default: https://cocodataset.org/#home. Credit to Joseph Redmon for YOLO: https://pjreddie.com/darknet/yolo/.

Requirements

Python 3.7 or later with the following pip3 install -U -r requirements.txt packages:

numpy
torch >= 1.3
opencv-python
tqdm

Tutorials

Jupyter Notebook

Our Jupyter notebook provides quick training, inference and testing examples.

Training

Start Training: python3 train.py to begin training after downloading COCO data with data/get_coco_dataset.sh. Each epoch trains on 117,263 images from the train and validate COCO sets, and tests on 5000 images from the COCO validate set.

Resume Training: python3 train.py --resume to resume training from weights/last.pt.

Plot Training: from utils import utils; utils.plot_results() plots training results from coco_16img.data, coco_64img.data, 2 example datasets available in the data/ folder, which train and test on the first 16 and 64 images of the COCO2014-trainval dataset.

Image Augmentation

datasets.py applies random OpenCV-powered (https://opencv.org/) augmentation to the input images in accordance with the following specifications. Augmentation is applied only during training, not during inference. Bounding boxes are automatically tracked and updated with the images. 416 x 416 examples pictured below.

Augmentation	Description
Translation	+/- 10% (vertical and horizontal)
Rotation	+/- 5 degrees
Shear	+/- 2 degrees (vertical and horizontal)
Scale	+/- 10%
Reflection	50% probability (horizontal-only)
HSV Saturation	+/- 50%
HSV Intensity	+/- 50%

Inference

detect.py runs inference on any sources:

python3 detect.py --source ...

Image: --source file.jpg
Video: --source file.mp4
Directory: --source dir/
Webcam: --source 0
RTSP stream: --source rtsp://170.93.143.139/rtplive/470011e600ef003a004ee33696235daa
HTTP stream: --source http://wmccpinetop.axiscam.net/mjpg/video.mjpg

To run a specific models:

YOLOv3: python3 detect.py --cfg cfg/yolov3.cfg --weights yolov3.weights

YOLOv3-tiny: python3 detect.py --cfg cfg/yolov3-tiny.cfg --weights yolov3-tiny.weights

YOLOv3-SPP: python3 detect.py --cfg cfg/yolov3-spp.cfg --weights yolov3-spp.weights

Darknet Conversion

$ git clone https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov3 && cd yolov3

# convert darknet cfg/weights to pytorch model
$ python3  -c "from models import *; convert('cfg/yolov3-spp.cfg', 'weights/yolov3-spp.weights')"
Success: converted 'weights/yolov3-spp.weights' to 'converted.pt'

# convert cfg/pytorch model to darknet weights
$ python3  -c "from models import *; convert('cfg/yolov3-spp.cfg', 'weights/yolov3-spp.pt')"
Success: converted 'weights/yolov3-spp.pt' to 'converted.weights'
