Ultralytics YOLOv5 is a PyTorch‑based library for real‑time object detection, instance segmentation, and image classification. It provides training, inference, and model export to multiple deployment formats.

Use cases

  • detect objects in images or video streams
  • perform instance segmentation on photos
  • classify images using pretrained YOLO models
  • train a custom object detection dataset
  • export YOLO models to ONNX, TensorRT, CoreML, or TFLite for edge deployment
  • run inference on GPU‑enabled servers or containers
  • integrate YOLOv5 into Python applications or CI pipelines

When to choose

  • You need fast, real‑time detection with a small model footprint
  • You prefer a PyTorch ecosystem with easy model loading via torch.hub
  • You want built‑in support for exporting to multiple deployment formats
  • You require extensive documentation, community examples, and cloud integration

When to avoid

  • Your project demands higher accuracy than YOLOv5 can provide
  • You need a non‑Python or non‑PyTorch implementation
  • You cannot comply with the AGPL‑3.0 license for commercial use
  • You require specialized detection heads not supported by YOLO architecture
