packaged ultralytics/yolov5

pip install yolov5

Overview

You can finally install YOLOv5 object detector using pip and integrate into your project easily.

Install

Install yolov5 using pip (for Python >=3.7)

pip install yolov5

Install yolov5 using pip `(for Python 3.6)`

pip install "numpy>=1.18.5,<1.20" "matplotlib>=3.2.2,<4"
pip install yolov5

Use from Python

Basic

import yolov5

# load model
model = yolov5.load('yolov5s')

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

# perform inference
results = model(img)

# inference with larger input size
results = model(img, size=1280)

# inference with test time augmentation
results = model(img, augment=True)

# parse results
predictions = results.pred[0]
boxes = predictions[:, :4] # x1, y1, x2, y2
scores = predictions[:, 4]
categories = predictions[:, 5]

# show detection bounding boxes on image
results.show()

# save results into "results/" folder
results.save(save_dir='results/')

Alternative

from yolov5 import YOLOv5

# set model params
model_path = "yolov5/weights/yolov5s.pt"
device = "cuda:0" # or "cpu"

# init yolov5 model
yolov5 = YOLOv5(model_path, device)

# load images
image1 = 'https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5/raw/master/data/images/zidane.jpg'
image2 = 'https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5/blob/master/data/images/bus.jpg'

# perform inference
results = yolov5.predict(image1)

# perform inference with larger input size
results = yolov5.predict(image1, size=1280)

# perform inference with test time augmentation
results = yolov5.predict(image1, augment=True)

# perform inference on multiple images
results = yolov5.predict([image1, image2], size=1280, augment=True)

# parse results
predictions = results.pred[0]
boxes = predictions[:, :4] # x1, y1, x2, y2
scores = predictions[:, 4]
categories = predictions[:, 5]

# show detection bounding boxes on image
results.show()

# save results into "results/" folder
results.save(save_dir='results/')

Train/Detect/Test/Export

You can directly use these functions by importing them:

from yolov5 import train, val, detect, export

train.run(imgsz=640, data='coco128.yaml')
val.run(imgsz=640, data='coco128.yaml', weights='yolov5s.pt')
detect.run(imgsz=640)
export.run(imgsz=640, weights='yolov5s.pt')

You can pass any argument as input:

from yolov5 import detect

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

detect.run(source=img_url, weights="yolov5s6.pt", conf_thres=0.25, imgsz=640)

Use from CLI

You can call yolov5 train, yolov5 detect, yolov5 val and yolov5 export commands after installing the package via pip:

Training

Finetune one of the pretrained YOLOv5 models using your custom data.yaml:

$ yolov5 train --data data.yaml --weights yolov5s.pt --batch-size 16 --img 640
                                          yolov5m.pt              8
                                          yolov5l.pt              4
                                          yolov5x.pt              2

Start a training using a COCO formatted dataset:

# data.yml
train_json_path: "train.json"
train_image_dir: "train_image_dir/"
val_json_path: "val.json"
val_image_dir: "val_image_dir/"

$ yolov5 train --data data.yaml --weights yolov5s.pt

Visualize your experiments via Neptune.AI (neptune-client>=0.10.10 required):

$ yolov5 train --data data.yaml --weights yolov5s.pt --neptune_project NAMESPACE/PROJECT_NAME --neptune_token YOUR_NEPTUNE_TOKEN

Automatically upload weights and datasets to AWS S3 (with Neptune.AI artifact tracking integration):

export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=YOUR_KEY
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=YOUR_KEY

$ yolov5 train --data data.yaml --weights yolov5s.pt --s3_upload_dir YOUR_S3_FOLDER_DIRECTORY --upload_dataset

Add yolo_s3_data_dir into data.yaml to match Neptune dataset with a present dataset in S3.

# data.yml
train_json_path: "train.json"
train_image_dir: "train_image_dir/"
val_json_path: "val.json"
val_image_dir: "val_image_dir/"
yolo_s3_data_dir: s3://bucket_name/data_dir/

Inference

yolov5 detect command runs inference on a variety of sources, downloading models automatically from the latest YOLOv5 release and saving results to runs/detect.

$ yolov5 detect --source 0  # webcam
                         file.jpg  # image
                         file.mp4  # video
                         path/  # directory
                         path/*.jpg  # glob
                         rtsp://170.93.143.139/rtplive/470011e600ef003a004ee33696235daa  # rtsp stream
                         rtmp://192.168.1.105/live/test  # rtmp stream
                         http://112.50.243.8/PLTV/88888888/224/3221225900/1.m3u8  # http stream

Export

You can export your fine-tuned YOLOv5 weights to any format such as torchscript, onnx, coreml, pb, tflite, tfjs:

$ yolov5 export --weights yolov5s.pt --include 'torchscript,onnx,coreml,pb,tfjs'
