How to Train a Scaled-YOLOv4 Object Detection Model In this blog, we will show an example of how to train and generalize Scaled-YOLOv4 on your custom dataset to detect custom objects. Jacob Solawetz 14 Jan 2021 • 9 min read Object detection technology recently took a step forward with the publication of Scaled-YOLOv4 – a new state-of-the-art machine learning model for object detection. In this blogpost we'll look at the breakthroughs involved in the creation of the Scaled-YOLOv4 model and then we'll work through an example of how to generalize and train the model on a custom dataset to detect custom objects.
