tf2-yolov4

A TensorFlow 2.0 implementation of YOLOv4: Optimal Speed and Accuracy of Object Detection

This implementation runs (for now) inference with the original Darknet weights from AlexeyAB. See the roadmap section to see what's next.

Installation

To install this package, you can run:

pip install https://github.com/sicara/tf2-yolov4/archive/master.zip
pip install tensorflow
# Check that tf2_yolov4 is installed properly
python -c "from tf2_yolov4.model import YOLOv4; print(YOLOv4)"

Check the detect script to run a prediction.

Requirements:

• MacOs >= 10.15 since tensorflow-addons is not available for older release of MacOs
• Python >= 3.6
• Compatible versions between TensorFlow and TensorFlow Addons: check the compatibility matrix

Pretrained weights

To load the Darknet weights trained on COCO, you have to:

• get the weights (yolov4.weights) from AlexeyAB/darknet
• run python tools/weights_convert.py

TF weights should be saved as yolov4.h5.
