Love the simplicity of the way you teach, it's training right now I hope it works. One question, after training the model how can we test on Colab like giving it other images and see if they detect the object ?
Thank you! This is a script you can take as a reference on how to make inferences github.com/computervisioneng/train-yolov8-custom-dataset-step-by-step-guide/blob/master/local_env/predict_video.py 🙌
if i want to train object detection for multiple object classes, then if i just dump all the images into the images/train and all the labels under labels/train will that do? Or do i have to have seperate folders for each and every object class?
Thanks for this tutorial. I didn't see how you normalized the images before training. Could you please explain more about image normalization for YOLOv8 training?
Sir, I have followed the form of folder structure that you suggested to upload to google drive. However, the dataset that I use is a regular photo that I collected myself, so I don't have a labels folder that contains annotations files for training photos and validation photos. My question is, do I still have to create the main labels folder in which there are 2 other folders, namely the train folder and the val folder?
Hi. I downloaded a dataset from roboflow with three folders: train, valid, and test. 1. First question: Do I need to transfer my test images and labels to the valid folder? 2. The code of "model.train" is not working. It's probably because of the yaml file. The error says, "Dataset '/content/gdrive/My Drive/Object Detection project/data.yaml' images not found ⚠, missing path '/content/datasets/content/gdrive/My Drive/Object Detection project/valid/images' Note dataset download directory is '/content/datasets'. You can update this in '/root/.config/Ultralytics/settings.yaml' ". What should I do now?
How do i feed test data into this model? Like if I want to put random images from the internet that the model has never seen before for it to identify objects in the image?
Take a look here docs.ultralytics.com/hub/inference_api/#detect-model-format. Basically, you need to do: model = YOLO(model_path) results = model(image_url)
Permission to ask sir, how do you label data automatically?, because if the amount of data is labeled manually, for example 80 thousand, it will take a long time.
There are different strategies; one of them is to annotate only a subset of your data (1% for example) and train a model with that data, then use the model you trained to make predictions on 10% of the data, and then manually fix those annotations (it will take you less time fixing them than annotating them from scratch). Then do the same increasing the size of the curated annotated dataset incrementally until it reaches 100%. 🙌
@@SalwaZiada Technically, yes, you would need to check the performance of your model on a test set. In practice, I just check the accuracy by looking how it performs on the validation set, I consider this is enough for most projects.
Thanx for the tutorial. As far as i know on your example you have results for training and validation data. what if we want to test it on another test dataset and get the results (f1 score, recall etc. l) from it? I mean if we have test dataset as a whole and we want to get performance results on that dataset? What do we do?
If not mistaken I think you can specify a test set in the yaml config file. If that is not possible, you would need to inference the entire test directory and compute your desired metrics yourself. 😃🙌
Very good video, but I have a question how can I make it predict or detect with a video that I have in google drive and show me the result with the tags in it?
Try with this script from my github repository github.com/computervisioneng/train-yolov8-custom-dataset-step-by-step-guide/blob/master/local_env/predict_video.py Edit video_path and video_path_out to the locations in your google drive. 🙌
Can you tell me or point to a resource that will explain how to train a custom model that can detect two different objects using separate images of one thing (say one set of images of cats and one set of dogs ) . Please and thank you.
How can we download images from Open Image Datasets? There is no download option. And also how can we train our custom dataset without using Google Collab. I want to use pycharm ide. By the way, thank you
Hi, take a look at my other video on how to train a model with yolov8, I explain how to do it without using a Google colab. The instructions on how to download images from the open images dataset are available in my Patreon. 🙌
Hi are you able to use cuda cores of the tesla t4 gpu while training. It should automatically detect a gpu if it is present...as given in the ultralytics documentation...thats not happening for me and by default a cpu is being selected which are increasing the training time...do yo have any solution for the same?
Hi, I dont have a problem when using a Google colab, but if I train in an ec2 instance with gpu I need to install the cuda drivers first and also need to install a specific version of pytorch. I explain it in my video on training yolov8 in the cloud. 🙌
Thanks for the prompt reply....I was somehow able to circumvent the problem....thanks for the info regarding ec2 instance too... that was very helpful...will check the video...@@ComputerVisionEngineer
Permission to ask sir, I caught a problem with my training session, I tried to train the module with "epoches=300"( I was told that its the ideal value), but when I run that training session, It just reaches into epoches 189/300 and then it stopped automatically. Is there a way to fix it sir? Thank you for the really helpful tutorial.
Hi, there are some limitations with google colab, after a few hours the session is interrupted. Maybe that is what is going on. You could train the model using a cloud server, for example an EC2 instance in AWS.
Hi! We are creating a system that classifies tomato ripeness levels using image processing in CNN architecture with the YOLOv8 model. We are using Raspberry Pi 4 OS with 4GB RAM and we have encountered a problem - the system has 2-3 minute delay/lag in classifying the ripeness level. Would you happen to have any recommendation/suggestion sir on this problem?
computing in the cloud maybe. you can have an external server wich is going to classify the tomato. the Raspberry only have to send the image to the server. how did you solved the issue ?
Hello guys, there is a BIG MISTAKE IN VIDEO - this guy made incorect link to the yaml file. here is the correct linking an yaml: results = model.train(data=os.path.join(ROOT_DIR, "/content/gdrive/My Drive/Datadata/config.yaml"), epochs=20) instead of linking like he - without writing a directory to yaml file, typing only the name of yaml.
I guess that the "ROOT_DIR" is already the direcory. The yaml file should be on the same paste as the 'data' one. Like: data config.yaml So, there is no need to put the directory again.
Vscode you mean the ide? Take a look at my other video on object detection + tracking using yolov8, I used Pycharm in that video but it s pretty much the same.
Thank you so much for the tutorial. I have trained the model and it gives satisfied results on images that I now give it. Please tell me (or please make a video about this) the process that how do i save that model and use it in a mobile application in Python that uses this model to detect the ingredients and then processes that list of those ingredients to generate further results. Also which platforms should I use for the coding and stuff. Please let me know, I have a project to complete, by the end of this week.
really helpful video! I just ran onto one problem. When I run the 5th cell, there's an error saying "NotImplementedError: A UTF-8 locale is required. Got ANSI_X3.4-1968". Please help mee
I am a student from Sri Lanka. can you please let me know how to download the data from open images. but I don't have money. sir can you please help me 🙄

having problem opening 'Step by step tutorial on how to download data' video link.
"It's very very important that the folders must be named "train" and "val"" That just saved my entire career
very very very very very very very very very importance
Just this 4 words enough to summerize the video "bery bery bery amaizing" :)
😂😂 Glad you enjoyed it. 🙌
Your explanation was excellent! It would be even better if you could demonstrate it through testing
Always the most exciting notifications 😂
totally right xD
Thank you guys 😄🙌
Thankyou for giving ideas how to train in different platforms ❤
You are welcome! 😃🙌

Make sure the path to data is absolute, and also try removing the white spaces in your directories.

@@ComputerVisionEngineer thanks!!
Anytime i train i get ‘filenotfounderror’ and i have followed all the steps multiple times
Hello, what file is not being found?
Permission to ask sir, how do you label data automatically?, because if the amount of data is labeled manually, for example 80 thousand, it will take a long time.
Good question.
It takes me 20 hours to annotate 150 images with 10 objects per image. 20 different classes.
There are different strategies; one of them is to annotate only a subset of your data (1% for example) and train a model with that data, then use the model you trained to make predictions on 10% of the data, and then manually fix those annotations (it will take you less time fixing them than annotating them from scratch).

I dont know what you took before the video but I wanted too.
Please how can I build a streamlit app for the custom model I have created?
This guy is trained on a "very very very" dataset. 😂
😂😂
after training model, if i want to do real time detection using my webcam how to do
thank you so muchhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
You are welcome!! 😃🙌
Hi! Many thanks for the tutorial.. How about the testing? Is a testing having a different image and label as well as training and validation?
You are welcome! 🙌 Not sure if I understand, do you mean if its possible to specify a test set, besides the train and validation sets?
