from ultralytics import YOLO import cv2 model = YOLO('yolov8n.pt') Run inference on a sample image results = model('https://ultralytics.com/images/bus.jpg') Display results for r in results: r.show() # Opens image window https://github
pip install ultralytics Verification: This command downloads the core library and its dependencies (Torch, NumPy, OpenCV). No model weights are downloaded at this stage. For users who need to modify the source code or contribute to the project. For users who need to modify the source
Example for Large model: https://github.com/ultralytics/assets/releases/download/v0.0.0/yolov8l.pt To confirm the installation and weights are functioning, run a test inference:
| Model Type | File Name | Size (MB) | Use Case | | :--------- | :----------- | :-------- | :-------------------------------- | | Nano | yolov8n.pt | 6.2 | Mobile/Edge devices, speed first | | Small | yolov8s.pt | 21.4 | Balanced speed/accuracy | | Medium | yolov8m.pt | 49.6 | General purpose | | Large | yolov8l.pt | 83.7 | High accuracy, slower | | Extra-Large| yolov8x.pt | 130.5 | Maximum accuracy |
