Overview
Learn to implement object detection for ships using YOLOv8 and Python in this 30-minute video tutorial. Convert XML annotations to YOLO format, import the Ultralytics YOLOv8 model, load YAML annotation data, train a custom model on a ships dataset, and make predictions with bounding box visualizations. Follow along to gain practical skills in computer vision, including data preparation, model training, and inference for maritime object detection applications.
