YOLO Nano: a Highly Compact You Only Look Once Convolutional Neural Network for Object Detection

The network structure of YOLO Nano:

The performance of YOLO Nano:

How to run training code

• Make sure you have powerfull GPU computer and you are good at Python coding.
• git clone git@github.com:ardeal/yolo_nano.git
• Install Pytorch and necessary packages
• Prepare validating images. Training and validating image and label files are all specified in file config/coco.data.
  • in data folder, there are 2 csv files which are examples about how to prepare training and prediction samples.
  • If you prepare corresponding csv file similiar with those 2 csv files in data folder, VOC data could also be used to train the network.
• Customize opt.py file according to your environment
• Run train_yolonano.py

How to run this predicting code

• Prepare validating images and corresponding label files. In this code base, the example image and label files are downloaded from COCO.
• Make sure the pth file path in test_yolonano.py code is correct.
• The evaluate function in test_yolonano.py file is the main code of validating. Uncomment out code in evaluate function in test_yolonano.py file to show the image and corresponding algorithms result.

The performance of the trained model based on my code

the performance at present is not good enough, I will update the code and re-train a better model

About the pre-trained model

The size of the model is too big to be shared on github directly.
If you are interested in the pre-trained model, please join the QQ group.

More information

1. The code will be further optimized.
2. Star the code you like is the best respect to the author.
