Summary

Class ultralytics.solutions.analytics.Analytics#

Analytics(**kwargs: Any)

Bases: BaseSolution

A class for creating and updating various types of charts for visual analytics.

This class extends BaseSolution to provide functionality for generating line, bar, pie, and area charts based on object detection and tracking data.

Method ultralytics.solutions.analytics.Analytics.process#

def process(self, im0: np.ndarray, frame_number: int) -> SolutionResults

Process image data and run object tracking to update analytics charts.

The chart is re-rendered every update_every frames (and on the first call); otherwise the cached chart image is returned.

Args

NameTypeDescriptionDefault
im0np.ndarrayInput image for processing.required

Returns

TypeDescription
SolutionResultsContains the chart image plot_im, 'total_tracks' (int, total number of tracked objects) and 'classwise_count' (dict, per-class object count; empty for line charts).

Examples

>>> analytics = Analytics(analytics_type="line")
>>> frame = np.zeros((480, 640, 3), dtype=np.uint8)
>>> results = analytics.process(frame, frame_number=1)

Raises
