description: Learn about the supported models and architectures, such as YOLOv3, YOLOv5, and YOLOv8, and how to contribute your own model to Ultralytics.
---
# Models
Ultralytics supports many models and architectures with more to come in the future. Want to add your model architecture? [Here's](../help/contributing.md) how you can contribute.
In this documentation, we provide information on four major models:
1. [YOLOv3](./yolov3.md): The third iteration of the YOLO model family, known for its efficient real-time object detection capabilities.
2. [YOLOv5](./yolov5.md): An improved version of the YOLO architecture, offering better performance and speed tradeoffs compared to previous versions.
3. [YOLOv8](./yolov8.md): The latest version of the YOLO family, featuring enhanced capabilities such as instance segmentation, pose/keypoints estimation, and classification.
4. [Segment Anything Model (SAM)](./sam.md): Meta's Segment Anything Model (SAM).
5. [Realtime Detection Transformers (RT-DETR)](./rtdetr.md): Baidu's RT-DETR model.
You can use these models directly in the Command Line Interface (CLI) or in a Python environment. Below are examples of how to use the models with CLI and Python:
## CLI Example
```bash
yolo task=detect mode=train model=yolov8n.yaml data=coco128.yaml epochs=100
```
## Python Example
```python
from ultralytics import YOLO
model = YOLO("model.yaml") # build a YOLOv8n model from scratch
# YOLO("model.pt") use pre-trained model if available
model.info() # display model information
model.train(data="coco128.yaml", epochs=100) # train the model
```
