We should stop calling it YOLO after the creator quit machine learning.

Especially hilarious considering some other people ALSO jumped on the "we made an object detector so let's call it YOLOvX" wagon and released...

Something called YOLOv7.

Yikes. It's not clear to me if that's the upper limit on accuracy or a limit imposed by requiring that it run at 30 FPS, but still...yikes.

In YOLOv7, YOLO and v7 don't go well together. No, not at all. YOLO normally means "You Only Live Once", and v7 means it's lived at least six times before this.

While the author likely didn't have that intention, that's what came across.

Even for YOLO meaning "You Only Look Once" YOLO and v7 do not go together well.

It's clearly the latter and I don't see why it would be "yikes". Real time detectors are useless if "real time" means 1fps.

YOLO in this case stands for "You Only Look One".

Yes.

The point I was making is that YOLO and v7 don't go well together, and that is true for either meaning of YOLO.

Github repo mentions "teaser: Yolov7-mask" showing segmentation as well. Highly relevant to my interests. Sadly I can't easily discern any other info on this topic. Anyone knows any more, maybe?

What are you using it for if can share? I’ve thought about training some of these and releasing the weights but I’ve never found a reason they’d really be useful personally so it never really happened
