About Yolov3

Yolov3 is a PyTorch implementation of YOLOv3, YOLOv3-SPP, and YOLOv3-tiny for object detection. It predicts bounding boxes and class probabilities directly from full images in one forward pass, and includes tooling for training, validation, inference, and export.

It supports inference through PyTorch Hub and a detect.py script on images, video, webcam, screenshots, directories, and network streams, with results saved to runs/detect. It supports training on COCO and custom data, validation with val.py, and export to TorchScript, ONNX, OpenVINO, TensorRT, CoreML, and PaddlePaddle. Installation requires Python >=3.8.0 with PyTorch >=1.8, and commercial use requires an Enterprise License.
