Get Started

1.Installation

Step1. Install YOLOX.

git clone git@github.com:Megvii-BaseDetection/YOLOX.git
cd YOLOX
pip3 install -U pip && pip3 install -r requirements.txt
pip3 install -v -e .  # or  python3 setup.py develop

Step2. Install pycocotools.

pip3 install cython; pip3 install 'git+https://github.com/cocodataset/cocoapi.git#subdirectory=PythonAPI'

2.Demo

Step1. Download a pretrained model from the benchmark table.

Step2. Use either -n or -f to specify your detector's config. For example:

python tools/demo.py image -n yolox-s -c /path/to/your/yolox_s.pth --path assets/dog.jpg --conf 0.25 --nms 0.45 --tsize 640 --save_result --device [cpu/gpu]

or

python tools/demo.py image -f exps/default/yolox_s.py -c /path/to/your/yolox_s.pth --path assets/dog.jpg --conf 0.25 --nms 0.45 --tsize 640 --save_result --device [cpu/gpu]

Demo for video:

python tools/demo.py video -n yolox-s -c /path/to/your/yolox_s.pth --path /path/to/your/video --conf 0.25 --nms 0.45 --tsize 640 --save_result --device [cpu/gpu]

3.Reproduce our results on COCO

Step1. Prepare COCO dataset

cd <YOLOX_HOME>
ln -s /path/to/your/COCO ./datasets/COCO

Step2. Reproduce our results on COCO by specifying -n:

python tools/train.py -n yolox-s -d 8 -b 64 --fp16 -o [--cache]
                         yolox-m
                         yolox-l
                         yolox-x
  • -d: number of gpu devices
  • -b: total batch size, the recommended number for -b is num-gpu * 8
  • --fp16: mixed precision training
  • --cache: caching imgs into RAM to accelarate training, which need large system RAM.

Multi Machine Training

We also support multi-nodes training. Just add the following args:

  • --num_machines: num of your total training nodes
  • --machine_rank: specify the rank of each node

When using -f, the above commands are equivalent to:

python tools/train.py -f exps/default/yolox-s.py -d 8 -b 64 --fp16 -o [--cache]
                         exps/default/yolox-m.py
                         exps/default/yolox-l.py
                         exps/default/yolox-x.py

4.Evaluation

We support batch testing for fast evaluation:

python tools/eval.py -n  yolox-s -c yolox_s.pth -b 64 -d 8 --conf 0.001 [--fp16] [--fuse]
                         yolox-m
                         yolox-l
                         yolox-x
  • --fuse: fuse conv and bn
  • -d: number of GPUs used for evaluation. DEFAULT: All GPUs available will be used.
  • -b: total batch size across on all GPUs

To reproduce speed test, we use the following command:

python tools/eval.py -n  yolox-s -c yolox_s.pth -b 1 -d 1 --conf 0.001 --fp16 --fuse
                         yolox-m
                         yolox-l
                         yolox-x
