Ultralytics creates cutting-edge, state-of-the-art (SOTA) YOLO models built on years of foundational research in computer vision and AI. Constantly updated for performance and flexibility, our models are fast, accurate, and easy to use. They excel at object detection, tracking, instance segmentation, image classification, and pose estimation tasks.

πŸ“„ Documentation

See below for quickstart installation and usage examples. For comprehensive guidance on training, validation, prediction, and deployment, refer to our full Ultralytics Docs.

Install

Install the ultralytics package, including all requirements, in a Python>=3.8 environment with PyTorch>=1.8.

PyPI - Version Ultralytics Downloads PyPI - Python Version

pip install ultralytics

For alternative installation methods, including Conda, Docker, and building from source via Git, please consult the Quickstart Guide.

Usage

CLI

You can use Ultralytics YOLO directly from the Command Line Interface (CLI) with the yolo command:

# Predict using a pretrained YOLO model (e.g., YOLO11n) on an image
yolo predict model=yolo11n.pt source='https://ultralytics.com/images/bus.jpg'

The yolo command supports various tasks and modes, accepting additional arguments like imgsz=640. Explore the YOLO CLI Docs for more examples.

Python

Ultralytics YOLO can also be integrated directly into your Python projects. It accepts the same configuration arguments as the CLI:

from ultralytics import YOLO

# Load a pretrained YOLO11n model
model = YOLO("yolo11n.pt")

# Train the model on the COCO8 dataset for 100 epochs
train_results = model.train(
    data="coco8.yaml",  # Path to dataset configuration file
    epochs=100,  # Number of training epochs
    imgsz=640,  # Image size for training
    device="cpu",  # Device to run on (e.g., 'cpu', 0, [0,1,2,3])
)

# Evaluate the model's performance on the validation set
metrics = model.val()

# Perform object detection on an image
results = model("path/to/image.jpg")  # Predict on an image
results[0].show()  # Display results

# Export the model to ONNX format for deployment
path = model.export(format="onnx")  # Returns the path to the exported model

✨ Models

Ultralytics supports a wide range of YOLO models, from early versions like YOLOv3 to the latest YOLO11. The tables below showcase YOLO11 models pretrained on the COCO dataset for Detection, Segmentation, and Pose Estimation. Additionally, Classification models pretrained on the ImageNet dataset are available. Tracking mode is compatible with all Detection, Segmentation, and Pose models. All Models are automatically downloaded from the latest Ultralytics release upon first use.
