Circuit Component Detector (YOLO26M-OBB, 16 classes)

Oriented-bounding-box detector for hand-drawn electronic circuit components. It is Stage 1 of the pipeline in "From Hand-Drawn Schematics to SPICE Netlists" — it localizes and orients components so a downstream occlusion + graph-join stage can recover electrical connectivity.

  • Architecture: YOLO26M-OBB (Ultralytics), fine-tuned.
  • Task: oriented bounding-box detection.
  • Classes: 16, merged down from CGHD-1152's 61 (variants the netlist does not distinguish are collapsed; 30 rare device types fold into a single other class).
  • Reported performance: mAP@0.5 = 89.0% on 468 held-out scans.

Intended use

Detecting and orienting components in scanned/photographed hand-drawn schematics as the first stage of schematic-to-netlist digitization. The model recovers component location, orientation, and coarse class — not device values. It is trained on a single hand-drawn corpus; generalization to printed schematics or other drawing styles is unvalidated.

Training data & attribution

Trained on CGHD-1152, A Public Ground-Truth Dataset for Handwritten Circuit Diagram Images by Felix Thoma, Johannes Bayer, Yakun Li, and Andreas Dengel (DFKI), licensed CC BY 4.0 and archived at Zenodo: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.6385814.

License

The base weights are Ultralytics YOLO26, released under AGPL-3.0. This fine-tuned derivative is therefore distributed under AGPL-3.0. If you need a non-AGPL license for the weights, obtain an Ultralytics Enterprise License. (The surrounding pipeline code is MIT and the CGHD-derived annotations are CC BY 4.0 — see the repository — but those licenses do not extend to these weights.)
