Improving precision

[lirilkumar]

i want to improve precision, with little less recall.
i am looking for setting where we cans setup confidence level which will be used to classify whether the identified box is matching with any object or not.
Can someone help me how can we increase that threshold?
And what it will change in training and in production?

@lirilkumar confidence threshold is an inference parameter, i.e.:

python detect.py --weights yolov5s.pt --conf 0.25

@glenn-jocher aah!
any way to get high precision over recall in training?

@lirilkumar no. You decide your own precision at inference time via the --conf threshold.
