Examples

The tiny_yolov3_inference example automatically downloads the YOLOv3 tiny weights, and produces inference results in output directory.

cargo run --release --example tiny_yolov3_inference

The run_inference example is an utility program that you can test a combination of model configs and weights on image files. For example, you can test the YOLOv4 mode.

cargo run --release --example run_inference -- \
    --label-file darknet/data/coco.names \
    --model-cfg darknet/cfg/yolov4.cfg \
    --weights yolov4.weights \
    darknet/data/*.jpg

Read the example code in examples/ to understand the actual usage. More model configs and weights can be found here: (https://pjreddie.com/darknet/yolo/).
