## Darknet Object Detection on the COCO dataset



This model uses a pretrained YOLO Darknet model to perform object detection on an input image. The model is able to identify 80 classes from the COCO dataset. The classes are listed here `config/coco.names`.

### Usage
Clone the repository using
```
repo = Repository("/local_repo_name", clone_from="danieladejumo/darknet-coco-object_detection")
```

Run a detection by using the function `detect(path_to_image)` in the notebook `darknet-coco-object_detection.ipynb`. The output image with the detection rectangle and classes will be saved to `images/image_file_name-det.jpg`
