pip install -e .

Usage

1. CLI

To simply use the latest Ultralytics YOLO models

yolo task=detect    mode=train    model=yolov8n.yaml      args=...
          classify       predict        yolov8n-cls.yaml  args=...
          segment        val            yolov8n-seg.yaml  args=...
                         export         yolov8n.pt        format=onnx

2. Python SDK

To use pythonic interface of Ultralytics YOLO model

from ultralytics import YOLO

model = YOLO.new('yolov8n.yaml')  # create a new model from scratch
model = YOLO.load('yolov8n.pt')  # load a pretrained model (recommended for best training results)

results = model.train(data='coco128.yaml', epochs=100, imgsz=640, ...)
results = model.val()
results = model.predict(source='bus.jpg')
success = model.export(format='onnx')

If you're looking to modify YOLO for R&D or to build on top of it, refer to Using Trainer Guide on our docs.
