NexaAI/yolo26m-npu

YOLO26m

Model Description

YOLO26m is the medium-sized variant of the YOLO26 model family, designed to deliver higher detection accuracy while maintaining efficient real-time performance.

Compared to the smaller YOLO26n and YOLO26s models, YOLO26m offers increased model capacity, making it better suited for more complex scenes and dense object detection. It retains the end-to-end, NMS-free architecture, ensuring a streamlined and deployment-friendly inference pipeline.

YOLO26m is pretrained on the COCO dataset and is commonly used in production scenarios where accuracy is prioritized without sacrificing responsiveness.
