🥳 🚀 What's New 🔝

💎 v0.6.0 was released on 15/8/2023:

• Support YOLOv5 instance segmentation
• Support YOLOX-Pose based on MMPose
• Add 15 minutes instance segmentation tutorial.
• YOLOv5 supports using mask annotation to optimize bbox
• Add Multi-scale training and testing docs

For release history and update details, please refer to changelog.

✨ Highlight 🔝

We are excited to announce our latest work on real-time object recognition tasks, RTMDet, a family of fully convolutional single-stage detectors. RTMDet not only achieves the best parameter-accuracy trade-off on object detection from tiny to extra-large model sizes but also obtains new state-of-the-art performance on instance segmentation and rotated object detection tasks. Details can be found in the technical report. Pre-trained models are here.

MMYOLO currently implements the object detection and rotated object detection algorithm, but it has a significant training acceleration compared to the MMDeteciton version. The training speed is 2.6 times faster than the previous version.

📖 Introduction 🔝

MMYOLO is an open source toolbox for YOLO series algorithms based on PyTorch and MMDetection. It is a part of the OpenMMLab project.

The master branch works with PyTorch 1.6+. <img src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/45811724/190993591-bd3f1f11-1c30-4b93-b5f4-05c9ff64ff7f.gif"/>

• 🕹️ Unified and convenient benchmark

  MMYOLO unifies the implementation of modules in various YOLO algorithms and provides a unified benchmark. Users can compare and analyze in a fair and convenient way.

• 📚 Rich and detailed documentation

  MMYOLO provides rich documentation for getting started, model deployment, advanced usages, and algorithm analysis, making it easy for users at different levels to get started and make extensions quickly.

• 🧩 Modular Design

  MMYOLO decomposes the framework into different components where users can easily customize a model by combining different modules with various training and testing strategies.

And the figure of P6 model is in model_design.md.

🛠️ Installation 🔝

MMYOLO relies on PyTorch, MMCV, MMEngine, and MMDetection. Below are quick steps for installation. Please refer to the Install Guide for more detailed instructions.

conda create -n mmyolo python=3.8 pytorch==1.10.1 torchvision==0.11.2 cudatoolkit=11.3 -c pytorch -y
conda activate mmyolo
pip install openmim
mim install "mmengine>=0.6.0"
mim install "mmcv>=2.0.0rc4,<2.1.0"
mim install "mmdet>=3.0.0,<4.0.0"
git clone https://github.com/open-mmlab/mmyolo.git

👨‍🏫 Tutorial 🔝

MMYOLO is based on MMDetection and adopts the same code structure and design approach. To get better use of this, please read MMDetection Overview for the first understanding of MMDetection.

The usage of MMYOLO is almost identical to MMDetection and all tutorials are straightforward to use, you can also learn about MMDetection User Guide and Advanced Guide.

For different parts from MMDetection, we have also prepared user guides and advanced guides, please read our documentation.
