**Train mode** is used for training a YOLOv8 model on a custom dataset. In this mode, the model is trained using the |
|
specified dataset and hyperparameters. The training process involves optimizing the model's parameters so that it can |
|
accurately predict the classes and locations of objects in an image. |
|
|
|
!!! tip "Tip" |
|
|
|
* YOLOv8 datasets like COCO, VOC, ImageNet and many others automatically download on first use, i.e. `yolo train data=coco.yaml` |
|
|
|
## Usage Examples |
|
|
|
Train YOLOv8n on the COCO128 dataset for 100 epochs at image size 640. See Arguments section below for a full list of |
|
training arguments. |

|
|
|
=== "Python" |
|
|
|
```python |
|
from ultralytics import YOLO |
|
|
|
# Load a model |
|
model = YOLO('yolov8n.yaml') # build a new model from YAML |
|
model = YOLO('yolov8n.pt') # load a pretrained model (recommended for training) |
|
model = YOLO('yolov8n.yaml').load('yolov8n.pt') # build from YAML and transfer weights |
|
|
|
# Train the model |
|
model.train(data='coco128.yaml', epochs=100, imgsz=640) |
|
``` |
|
=== "CLI" |
|
|
|
```bash |
|
# Build a new model from YAML and start training from scratch |
|
yolo detect train data=coco128.yaml model=yolov8n.yaml epochs=100 imgsz=640 |
|
|
|
# Start training from a pretrained *.pt model |
|
yolo detect train data=coco128.yaml model=yolov8n.pt epochs=100 imgsz=640 |
|
|
|
# Build a new model from YAML, transfer pretrained weights to it and start training |
|
yolo detect train data=coco128.yaml model=yolov8n.yaml pretrained=yolov8n.pt epochs=100 imgsz=640 |
|
``` |
|
|
|
## Arguments |
|
|
|
Training settings for YOLO models refer to the various hyperparameters and configurations used to train the model on a |
|
dataset. These settings can affect the model's performance, speed, and accuracy. Some common YOLO training settings |
|
include the batch size, learning rate, momentum, and weight decay. Other factors that may affect the training process |
|
include the choice of optimizer, the choice of loss function, and the size and composition of the training dataset. It |
|
is important to carefully tune and experiment with these settings to achieve the best possible performance for a given |
|
task. |
