.. _sec_object_detection_quick: Object Detection - Quick Start ============================== **Note**: AutoGluon ObjectDetector will be deprecated in v0.7. Please try our `AutoGluon MultiModalPredictor `__ for more functionalities and better support for your object detection need. Object detection is the process of identifying and localizing objects in an image and is an important task in computer vision. Follow this tutorial to learn how to use AutoGluon for object detection. **Tip**: If you are new to AutoGluon, review :ref:`sec_imgquick` first to learn the basics of the AutoGluon API. Our goal is to detect motorbike in images by `YOLOv3 model `__. A tiny dataset is collected from VOC dataset, which only contains the motorbike category. The model pretrained on the COCO dataset is used to fine-tune our small dataset. With the help of AutoGluon, we are able to try many models with different hyperparameters automatically, and return the best one as our final model.

From the VOC dataset, images are randomly selected for training, validation, and testing - 120 images for training, 50 images for validation, and 50 for testing. This tiny dataset follows the same format as VOC. Using the commands below, we can download this dataset, which is only 23M. The name of unzipped folder is called ``tiny_motorbike``. Anyway, the task dataset helper can perform the download and extraction automatically, and load the dataset according to the detection formats. .. code:: python url = 'https://autogluon.s3.amazonaws.com/datasets/tiny_motorbike.zip' dataset_train = ObjectDetector.Dataset.from_voc(url, splits='trainval') .. parsed-literal:: :class: output Downloading /home/ci/.gluoncv/archive/tiny_motorbike.zip from https://autogluon.s3.amazonaws.com/datasets/tiny_motorbike.zip... .. parsed-literal:: :class: output 21273KB [00:01, 17169.42KB/s] .. parsed-literal:: :class: output tiny_motorbike/ ├── Annotations/ ├── ImageSets/ └── JPEGImages/ Fit Models by AutoGluon ----------------------- In this section, we demonstrate how to apply AutoGluon to fit our detection models. We use mobilenet as the backbone for the YOLOv3 model. Two different learning rates are used to fine-tune the network. The best model is the one that obtains the best performance on the validation dataset. You can also try using more networks and hyperparameters to create a larger searching space. We ``fit`` a classifier using AutoGluon as follows. In each experiment (one trial in our searching space), we train the model for 5 epochs to avoid bursting our tutorial runtime. .. code:: python time_limit = 60*30 # at most 0.5 hour detector = ObjectDetector() hyperparameters = {'epochs': 5, 'batch_size': 8} hyperparameter_tune_kwargs={'num_trials': 2} detector.fit(dataset_train, time_limit=time_limit, hyperparameters=hyperparameters, hyperparameter_tune_kwargs=hyperparameter_tune_kwargs) .. parsed-literal:: :class: output ============================================================================= WARNING: ObjectDetector is deprecated as of v0.4.0 and may contain various bugs and issues! In a future release ObjectDetector may be entirely reworked to use Torch as a backend. This future change will likely be API breaking.Users should ensure they update their code that depends on ObjectDetector when upgrading to future AutoGluon releases.
