We provide: (1) more high-resolution pre-trained models (e.g., S, M, X) (#142); (2) pre-trained models with CLIP-Large text encoders. Most importantly, we preliminarily fix the fine-tuning without mask-refine
and explore a new fine-tuning setting (#160,#76). In addition, fine-tuning YOLO-World with mask-refine
also obtains significant improvements, check more details in configs/finetune_coco.
[2024-3-16]:
We fix the bugs about the demo (#110,#94,#129, #125) with visualizations of segmentation masks, and release YOLO-World with Embeddings, which supports prompt tuning, text prompts and image prompts.

This repo contains the PyTorch implementation, pre-trained weights, and pre-training/fine-tuning code for YOLO-World.
-
YOLO-World is pre-trained on large-scale datasets, including detection, grounding, and image-text datasets.
-
YOLO-World is the next-generation YOLO detector, with a strong open-vocabulary detection capability and grounding ability.
-
YOLO-World presents a prompt-then-detect paradigm for efficient user-vocabulary inference, which re-parameterizes vocabulary embeddings as parameters into the model and achieve superior inference speed. You can try to export your own detection model without extra training or fine-tuning in our online demo!
We've pre-trained YOLO-World-S/M/L from scratch and evaluate on the LVIS val-1.0
and LVIS minival
. We provide the pre-trained model weights and training logs for applications/research or re-producing the results.

YOLO-World is developed based on torch==1.11.0
mmyolo==0.6.0
and mmdetection==3.0.0
.
git clone --recursive https://github.com/AILab-CVC/YOLO-World.git
pip install torch wheel -q
pip install -e .
We provide the details about the pre-training data in docs/data.
We adopt the default training or evaluation scripts of mmyolo.
We provide the configs for pre-training and fine-tuning in configs/pretrain
and configs/finetune_coco
.
Training YOLO-World is easy:
chmod +x tools/dist_train.sh
# sample command for pre-training, use AMP for mixed-precision training
./tools/dist_train.sh configs/pretrain/yolo_world_l_t2i_bn_2e-4_100e_4x8gpus_obj365v1_goldg_train_lvis_minival.py 8 --amp
NOTE: YOLO-World is pre-trained on 4 nodes with 8 GPUs per node (32 GPUs in total). For pre-training, the node_rank
and nnodes
for multi-node training should be specified.
Evaluating YOLO-World is also easy:
chmod +x tools/dist_test.sh
./tools/dist_test.sh path/to/config path/to/weights 8
NOTE: We mainly evaluate the performance on LVIS-minival for pre-training.
We provide the details about fine-tuning YOLO-World in docs/fine-tuning.
We provide the details about deployment for downstream applications in docs/deployment. You can directly download the ONNX model through the online demo in Huggingface Spaces 🤗.
We provide the Gradio demo for local devices:
pip install gradio==4.16.0
python demo.py path/to/config path/to/weights
Additionaly, you can use a Dockerfile to build an image with gradio. As a prerequisite, make sure you have respective drivers installed alongside nvidia-container-runtime. Replace MODEL_NAME and WEIGHT_NAME with the respective values or ommit this and use default values from the Dockerfile
docker build --build-arg="MODEL=MODEL_NAME" --build-arg="WEIGHT=WEIGHT_NAME" -t yolo_demo .
docker run --runtime nvidia -p 8080:8080
We provide a simple image demo for inference on images with visualization outputs.
python image_demo.py path/to/config path/to/weights image/path/directory 'person,dog,cat' --topk 100 --threshold 0.005 --output-dir demo_outputs
Notes:
- The
image
can be a directory or a single image. - The
texts
can be a string of categories (noun phrases) which is separated by a comma. We also supporttxt
file in which each line contains a category ( noun phrases). - The
topk
andthreshold
control the number of predictions and the confidence threshold.
We sincerely thank Onuralp for sharing the Colab Demo, you can have a try 😊!
We sincerely thank mmyolo, mmdetection, GLIP, and transformers for providing their wonderful code to the community!
