img = "https://ultralytics.com/images/zidane.jpg" # Example image

Perform inference (handles batching, resizing, normalization automatically)


results = model(img)

Process the results (options: .print(), .show(), .save(), .crop(), .pandas())


results.print() # Print results to console
results.show() # Display results in a window
results.save() # Save results to runs/detect/exp

<summary>Training</summary>

The commands below demonstrate how to reproduce YOLOv5 COCO dataset results. Both models and datasets are downloaded automatically from the latest YOLOv5 release. Training times for YOLOv5n/s/m/l/x are approximately 1/2/4/6/8 days on a single NVIDIA V100 GPU. Using Multi-GPU training can significantly reduce training time. Use the largest --batch-size your hardware allows, or use --batch-size -1 for YOLOv5 AutoBatch. The batch sizes shown below are for V100-16GB GPUs.

bash

- All checkpoints were trained for 90 epochs using the SGD optimizer with lr0=0.001 and weight_decay=5e-5 at an image size of 224 pixels, using default settings.<br>Training runs are logged at https://wandb.ai/glenn-jocher/YOLOv5-Classifier-v6-2.
- Accuracy values (top-1 and top-5) represent single-model, single-scale performance on the ImageNet-1k dataset.<br>Reproduce using: python classify/val.py --data ../datasets/imagenet --img 224
- Speed metrics are averaged over 100 inference images using a Google Colab Pro V100 High-RAM instance.<br>Reproduce using: python classify/val.py --data ../datasets/imagenet --img 224 --batch 1
- Export to ONNX (FP32) and TensorRT (FP16) was performed using export.py.<br>Reproduce using: python export.py --weights yolov5s-cls.pt --include engine onnx --imgsz 224

Train

YOLOv5 classification training supports automatic download for datasets like MNIST, Fashion-MNIST, CIFAR10, CIFAR100, Imagenette, Imagewoof, and ImageNet using the --data argument. For example, start training on MNIST with --data mnist.

bash

Train on a single GPU using CIFAR-100 dataset


python classify/train.py --model yolov5s-cls.pt --data cifar100 --epochs 5 --img 224 --batch 128

Train using Multi-GPU DDP on ImageNet dataset


python -m torch.distributed.run --nproc_per_node 4 --master_port 1 classify/train.py --model yolov5s-cls.pt --data imagenet --epochs 5 --img 224 --device 0,1,2,3

Val

Validate the accuracy of the YOLOv5m-cls model on the ImageNet-1k validation dataset:

bash

Download ImageNet validation split (6.3GB, 50,000 images)


bash data/scripts/get_imagenet.sh --val

Validate the model


python classify/val.py --weights yolov5m-cls.pt --data ../datasets/imagenet --img 224

Predict

Use the pretrained YOLOv5s-cls.pt model to classify the image bus.jpg:

bash

Run prediction


python classify/predict.py --weights yolov5s-cls.pt --source data/images/bus.jpg

python

Load model from PyTorch Hub


model = torch.hub.load("ultralytics/yolov5", "custom", "yolov5s-cls.pt")

Export

Export trained YOLOv5s-cls, ResNet50, and EfficientNet_b0 models to ONNX and TensorRT formats:

bash

Export models


python export.py --weights yolov5s-cls.pt resnet50.pt efficientnet_b0.pt --include onnx engine --img 224
