## Model Description
This **DAMO-YOLO-M** model is a medium-size object detection model with fast inference speed and high accuracy, trained by **DAMO-YOLO**. 
DAMO-YOLO is a fast and accurate object detection method, which is developed by TinyML Team from Alibaba DAMO Data Analytics and Intelligence Lab. And it achieves a higher performance than state-of-the-art YOLO series. DAMO-YOLO is extend from YOLO but with some new techs, including Neural Architecture Search (NAS) backbones, efficient Reparameterized Generalized-FPN (RepGFPN), a lightweight head with AlignedOTA label assignment, and distillation enhancement. For more details, please refer to our [Arxiv Report](https://arxiv.org/abs/2211.15444) and [Github Code](https://github.com/tinyvision/DAMO-YOLO). Moreover, here you can find not only powerful models, but also highly efficient training strategies and complete tools from training to deployment.

## Chinese Web Demo
- We also provide Chinese Web Demo on ModelScope, including [DAMO-YOLO-T](https://www.modelscope.cn/models/damo/cv_tinynas_object-detection_damoyolo-t/summary), [DAMO-YOLO-S](https://modelscope.cn/models/damo/cv_tinynas_object-detection_damoyolo/summary), [DAMO-YOLO-M](https://www.modelscope.cn/models/damo/cv_tinynas_object-detection_damoyolo-m/summary).

## Datasets
The model is trained on COCO2017.

## Model Usage
The usage guideline can be found in our [Quick Start Tutorial](https://github.com/tinyvision/DAMO-YOLO).
