ultralytics.models.yolo.classify.train.ClassificationTrainer

Bases: BaseTrainer

A class extending the BaseTrainer class for training based on a classification model.

Notes
  • Torchvision classification models can also be passed to the 'model' argument, i.e. model='resnet18'.
Example
from ultralytics.models.yolo.classify import ClassificationTrainer

args = dict(model='yolov8n-cls.pt', data='imagenet10', epochs=3)
trainer = ClassificationTrainer(overrides=args)
trainer.train()
