I used a my_training.txt file that includes a list of training images instead of a path to the folder of images and annotations, but it always returns AssertionError: No images found in /path_to_my_txt_file/my_training.txt. Could anyone kindly give some pointers to where it went wrong? Thanks |
|
I get the same error @shenglih |
|
hey @glenn-jocher can i train a model on images with size 450x600?? |
|
@justAyaan sure, just use --img 600, it will automatically use the nearest correct stride multiple. |

x_center is the center of your object in the x dimension |

I used Yolov5 training on Kaggel kernel, and this error occurred. I am a novice. How can I solve this problem Apex recommended for faster mixed precision training: https://github.com/NVIDIA/apex Namespace(batch_size=4, bucket='', cache_images=False, cfg='/kaggle/input/yolov5aconfig/yolov5x.yaml', data='/kaggle/input/yolov5aconfig/wheat0.yaml', device='', epochs=15, evolve=False, hyp='', img_size=[1024, 1024], local_rank=-1, multi_scale=False, name='yolov5x_fold0', noautoanchor=False, nosave=False, notest=False, rect=False, resume=False, single_cls=False, sync_bn=False, total_batch_size=4, weights='', world_size=1) 0 -1 1 8800 models.common.Focus [3, 80, 3] |
|
This is old code. Suggest you git clone the latest. PyTorch 1.6 is a requirement now. |
|
@glenn-jocher yolov5 is really flexible for training on custom datasets! could you please share the script for processing and converting coco to the train2017.txt file? I already have this file but would like to regenerate it with some modifications. |
|
Hi, I have a newbie question...
Should I expect better results if I use yolov5s.pt as pretrained weights? |
|
@rwin94 for small datasets or for quick results yes always start from the pretrained weights: You can see a comparison of pretrained vs from scratch in the custom data training turorial: |
|
I want to ask a question: it showes But everything is ok in my own laptop, so it cannot train with .png? |
|
Hello, I'd like to ask you something. "If no objects in image.no *. txt file is required". For images without labels in the training data (there is no target inthe image), how does it participate in the training as a negative sample? |
|
@liumingjune all images are treated equally during training, irrespective of the labels they may or may not have. |
|
Thanks your reply. I have a question after looking at the code. I would like to ask if you only keep the latest and best models which under runs file when you save the training model? Can't you save the model under the specified epoch? Is it ok to choose the latest model directly after the training? How to select other models under the epoch if this optimal detection does not work well? |
|
@liumingjune best.pt and last.pt are saved, which are the best performing model across all epochs and the most recent epoch's model. You can customize checkpointing logic here: Lines 333 to 348 in 9ae8683 |
|
Hello, thank you for your reply. I want to know if Yolov5 has done any work on small target detection. |
|
@liumingjune yes, of course. All models will work well with small objects without any changes. My only recommendation is to train at the largest --img-size you can, up to native resolution. We do have custom small object models with extra ops targeted to higher resolution layers (P2 and P3) which we have not open sourced. These custom models outperform our official models on COCO, in particular in the small object class, but also come with a speed penalty, so we decided not to release them to the community at the present time. |
Hello, I have a question. My test results showed a high false alarm rate. If I want to add some large images with no target and only background as negative samples to participate in the training. Obviously, in the format you requested, these images are not labled with *.txt. I have lots of big images with no targets here. so do you have any suggestions for the number of large images with no targets? I am concerned that the imbalance in the number of positive and negative samples will affect the effectiveness of training.Wish your reply.Thanks! |

|
@liumingjune I can't advise you on custom dataset training. |
Thanks. I understand. I just want to find out if the ratio of positive and negative samples(number of image has label and has no label) has any effect on training. |
delete *.cache file, again run python3 train.py |
|
@Minxiangliu in general I would first train with all default settings to establish a baseline before attempting to improve anything. |

Hello, I'm doing object detection using yolov5 with a custom dataset. There are only 2 classes but the images are around 5k. So, my issue is while training, it is not detecting the labels automatically. I'm getting an error "AssertionError: train: No labels Can not train without labels" PLEASE do not reply with the link of "Train custom data". That is the one which I'm using. I'm asking help here because it doesn't work even if I'm using the same way that page suggests. I'm providing all the details below. I would really appreciate if you could take a look and tell me where I'm doing wrong. My Dataset folders are organized in below way: Dataset--> Below is the screenshot of the format of my labels: Below is the .yaml file: And I'm saving the .yaml file in yolov5 folder. I also saving the file in yolov5>data folder but still the same error. Please kindly review the above details and let me know where am I doing wrong. |

@PonyPC this is user error, your custom dataset is structured incorrectly. Follow the tutorial and use COCO128 as an example: |

Say something !

Hi there, |
|
@00kar 👋 Hello! Thanks for asking about handling inference results. YOLOv5 🚀 PyTorch Hub models allow for simple model loading and inference in a pure python environment without using Simple Inference ExampleThis example loads a pretrained YOLOv5s model from PyTorch Hub as import torch
# Model
model = torch.hub.load('ultralytics/yolov5', 'yolov5s') # yolov5n - yolov5x6 official model
# 'custom', 'path/to/best.pt') # custom model
# Images
im = 'https://ultralytics.com/images/zidane.jpg' # or file, Path, URL, PIL, OpenCV, numpy, list
# Inference
results = model(im)
# Results
results.print() # or .show(), .save(), .crop(), .pandas(), etc.
results.xyxy[0] # im predictions (tensor)
results.pandas().xyxy[0] # im predictions (pandas)
# xmin ymin xmax ymax confidence class name
# 0 749.50 43.50 1148.0 704.5 0.874023 0 person
# 2 114.75 195.75 1095.0 708.0 0.624512 0 person
# 3 986.00 304.00 1028.0 420.0 0.286865 27 tieSee YOLOv5 PyTorch Hub Tutorial for details. Good luck 🍀 and let us know if you have any other questions! |

Hello, @glenn-jocher! Suppose I would want to train a model based on YOLOv5 that could detect face mask wearing condition. The classes are
Any help is appreciated. Thank you! 🙏 |
|
@myt-sheila yes you could train a mask detector with only YOLOv5, though you need a labelled dataset :) Yes face labelling would work well for full/partial/none, or mask labelling for partial/full would also work. |
ultralytics#12 lead to overfitting. We attempt to address this in the added segmentation path

hi, I have test.txt in yaml, But it seems not working. |
|
Hi @glenn-jocher , what's the difference between the probability argument p in copy_paste function and the copy_paste hyperparameter in [hyp.scratch-low.yaml] file? If I want to use copy_paste function to do copy_paste augmentation on some particular types of data, should I set the copy_paste in hyperparameter file to be 0? |
|
I make my custom dataset and put them on right position,when I execute"python train.py",it appears like below but does't have other output information. I execute "nvidia-smi",the result is as the second picture, on GPU 1, it shows it is working but occupy very lov memory. |
📚 This guide explains how to train your own custom dataset with YOLOv5 🚀. See YOLOv5 Docs for additional details. UPDATED 13 April 2023.
Before You Start
Clone repo and install requirements.txt in a Python>=3.7.0 environment, including PyTorch>=1.7. Models and datasets download automatically from the latest YOLOv5 release.
Train On Custom Data
Creating a custom model to detect your objects is an iterative process of collecting and organizing images, labeling your objects of interest, training a model, deploying it into the wild to make predictions, and then using that deployed model to collect examples of edge cases to repeat and improve.
1. Create Dataset
YOLOv5 models must be trained on labelled data in order to learn classes of objects in that data. There are two options for creating your dataset before you start training:
Use Roboflow to create your dataset in YOLO format ⭐
1.1 Collect Images
Your model will learn by example. Training on images similar to the ones it will see in the wild is of the utmost importance. Ideally, you will collect a wide variety of images from the same configuration (camera, angle, lighting, etc.) as you will ultimately deploy your project.
If this is not possible, you can start from a public dataset to train your initial model and then sample images from the wild during inference to improve your dataset and model iteratively.
1.2 Create Labels
Once you have collected images, you will need to annotate the objects of interest to create a ground truth for your model to learn from.
Roboflow Annotate is a simple
web-based tool for managing and labeling your images with your team and exporting
them in YOLOv5's annotation format.
1.3 Prepare Dataset for YOLOv5
Whether you label your images with Roboflow or not, you can use it to convert your dataset into YOLO format, create a YOLOv5 YAML configuration file, and host it for importing into your training script.
Create a free Roboflow account
and upload your dataset to a
Publicworkspace, label any unannotated images,then generate and export a version of your dataset in
YOLOv5 Pytorchformat.Note: YOLOv5 does online augmentation during training, so we do not recommend
applying any augmentation steps in Roboflow for training with YOLOv5. But we
recommend applying the following preprocessing steps:
Generating a version will give you a point in time snapshot of your dataset so
you can always go back and compare your future model training runs against it,
even if you add more images or change its configuration later.
Export in
YOLOv5 Pytorchformat, then copy the snippet into your trainingscript or notebook to download your dataset.
Now continue with
2. Select a Model.Or manually prepare your dataset
1.1 Create dataset.yaml
COCO128 is an example small tutorial dataset composed of the first 128 images in COCO train2017. These same 128 images are used for both training and validation to verify our training pipeline is capable of overfitting. data/coco128.yaml, shown below, is the dataset config file that defines 1) the dataset root directory
pathand relative paths totrain/val/testimage directories (or *.txt files with image paths) and 2) a classnamesdictionary:1.2 Create Labels
After using an annotation tool to label your images, export your labels to YOLO format, with one
*.txtfile per image (if no objects in image, no*.txtfile is required). The*.txtfile specifications are:class x_center y_center width heightformat.x_centerandwidthby image width, andy_centerandheightby image height.The label file corresponding to the above image contains 2 persons (class
0) and a tie (class27):1.3 Organize Directories
Organize your train and val images and labels according to the example below. YOLOv5 assumes
/coco128is inside a/datasetsdirectory next to the/yolov5directory. YOLOv5 locates labels automatically for each image by replacing the last instance of/images/in each image path with/labels/. For example:2. Select a Model
Select a pretrained model to start training from. Here we select YOLOv5s, the second-smallest and fastest model available. See our README table for a full comparison of all models.
3. Train
Train a YOLOv5s model on COCO128 by specifying dataset, batch-size, image size and either pretrained
--weights yolov5s.pt(recommended), or randomly initialized--weights '' --cfg yolov5s.yaml(not recommended). Pretrained weights are auto-downloaded from the latest YOLOv5 release.# Train YOLOv5s on COCO128 for 3 epochs $ python train.py --img 640 --batch 16 --epochs 3 --data coco128.yaml --weights yolov5s.pt💡 ProTip: Add
--cache ramor--cache diskto speed up training (requires significant RAM/disk resources).💡 ProTip: Always train from a local dataset. Mounted or network drives like Google Drive will be very slow.
All training results are saved to
runs/train/with incrementing run directories, i.e.runs/train/exp2,runs/train/exp3etc. For more details see the Training section of our tutorial notebook.4. Visualize
Comet Logging and Visualization 🌟 NEW
Comet is now fully integrated with YOLOv5. Track and visualize model metrics in real time, save your hyperparameters, datasets, and model checkpoints, and visualize your model predictions with Comet Custom Panels! Comet makes sure you never lose track of your work and makes it easy to share results and collaborate across teams of all sizes!
Getting started is easy:
To learn more about all of the supported Comet features for this integration, check out the Comet Tutorial. If you'd like to learn more about Comet, head over to our documentation. Get started by trying out the Comet Colab Notebook:
ClearML Logging and Automation 🌟 NEW
ClearML is completely integrated into YOLOv5 to track your experimentation, manage dataset versions and even remotely execute training runs. To enable ClearML:
pip install clearmlclearml-initto connect to a ClearML server (deploy your own open-source server here, or use our free hosted server here)You'll get all the great expected features from an experiment manager: live updates, model upload, experiment comparison etc. but ClearML also tracks uncommitted changes and installed packages for example. Thanks to that ClearML Tasks (which is what we call experiments) are also reproducible on different machines! With only 1 extra line, we can schedule a YOLOv5 training task on a queue to be executed by any number of ClearML Agents (workers).
You can use ClearML Data to version your dataset and then pass it to YOLOv5 simply using its unique ID. This will help you keep track of your data without adding extra hassle. Explore the ClearML Tutorial for details!
Local Logging
Training results are automatically logged with Tensorboard and CSV loggers to
runs/train, with a new experiment directory created for each new training asruns/train/exp2,runs/train/exp3, etc.This directory contains train and val statistics, mosaics, labels, predictions and augmentated mosaics, as well as metrics and charts including precision-recall (PR) curves and confusion matrices.
Results file
results.csvis updated after each epoch, and then plotted asresults.png(below) after training completes. You can also plot anyresults.csvfile manually:Next Steps
Once your model is trained you can use your best checkpoint
best.ptto:Environments
YOLOv5 may be run in any of the following up-to-date verified environments (with all dependencies including CUDA/CUDNN, Python and PyTorch preinstalled):
