Creating a Real-Time Object Detection System with YOLO: A Step-by-Step Guide
What is YOLO? Before we dive into the nitty-gritty of creating a real-time object detection system, let’s start with the basics. YOLO, which stands for “You Only Look Once,” is a revolutionary object detection algorithm developed by Joseph Redmon and Ali Farhadi in 2015. Unlike its predecessors, YOLO processes the entire image in one pass, making it incredibly fast and efficient. This single-stage detector uses a convolutional neural network (CNN) to predict both the class and location of objects in an image[3]....
