YoloDetectionNetwork

Yolo detection network node is very similar to NeuralNetwork (in fact it extends it). The only difference is that this node is specifically for the (tiny) Yolo V3/V4 NN and it decodes the result of the NN on device. This means that Out of this node is not a NNData (a byte array) but a ImgDetections that can easily be used in your code.

How to place it

pipeline = dai.Pipeline()
yoloDet = pipeline.create(dai.node.YoloDetectionNetwork)
dai::Pipeline pipeline;
auto yoloDet = pipeline.create<dai::node::YoloDetectionNetwork>();

yoloDet.setBlobPath(nnBlobPath)

# Yolo specific parameters
yoloDet.setConfidenceThreshold(0.5)
yoloDet.setNumClasses(80)
yoloDet.setCoordinateSize(4)
yoloDet.setAnchors(np.array([10,14, 23,27, 37,58, 81,82, 135,169, 344,319]))
yoloDet.setAnchorMasks({"side26": np.array([1, 2, 3]), "side13": np.array([3, 4, 5])})
yoloDet.setIouThreshold(0.5)
dai::Pipeline pipeline;
auto yoloDet = pipeline.create<dai::node::YoloDetectionNetwork>();
yoloDet->setBlobPath(nnBlobPath);

// yolo specific parameters
yoloDet->setConfidenceThreshold(0.5f);
yoloDet->setNumClasses(80);
yoloDet->setCoordinateSize(4);
yoloDet->setAnchors({10, 14, 23, 27, 37, 58, 81, 82, 135, 169, 344, 319});
yoloDet->setAnchorMasks({{"side13", {3, 4, 5}}, {"side26", {1, 2, 3}}});
