TPU models

[Hellmanx]

How do you install the Custom Models for TPU? The Coral Model doesn't have a custom model folder and I don't think it uses YOLO as far as I'm aware at least.

I would be interested to know how to install the custom model please. any advise is welcome

I'm also interested
I see the custom yolov8 model for Coral in the code. It's already been released?

[jeremeyi]

I still don't see where we are supposed to put the files for this

I have not had any free time to work on a new module that will use my custom models, hopefully next month I will find some time

[rohitksharma]

I saw that the from CodeProject it supports Yolov5 and Yolov8, would using the Yolov8 models in this case work for the Coral TPU?

[jairbj]

Does anyone find a way to use these models?

Duplicate of #5 I think.

Thanks for the work @MikeLud This is great stuff, I think, if I could get it loaded. I've copied the Coral models to the codeproject assets directory, and I think I can get the YoloV5 and Yolov8 models running. But for the life of me I cannot get the custom_models directory or the ipcam-general model loaded. Any clue or instructions?

Its been a while has this been implemented yet? Trying to just use the combined model to detect animals.

[Thormus]

Anyone figure out how to add the custom models yet?

Another interested party here.
How do we use the custom yolov8 models?

@MikeLud sry for tagging, any way we could use your custom-models in cpai with coral?

I have been using the ipcam-combined and dark YOLOv5 .NET models for a couple years now and have been very happy with the accuracy.

I recently began testing out the Coral TPU to offload the detection and reduce CPU usage on my BlueIris VM. I've been running the YOLOv8 Large model but the accuracy isn't as good as before.

Besides the issues listed above from others about custom-models, it would appear you only have the "general" model compiled. This would only recognize people or vehicles.

Is it possible to get a YOLOv8 "combined" and "dark" models for the TPU to match the YOLOv5 .NET that I was using previously?
