### (neural network for object detection) - Tensor Cores can be used on [Linux](https://github.com/AlexeyAB/darknet#how-to-compile-on-linux) and [Windows](https://github.com/AlexeyAB/darknet#how-to-compile-on-windows-using-vcpkg)
A Yolo cross-platform Windows and Linux version (for object detection). Contributors: https://github.com/AlexeyAB/darknet/graphs/contributors
This repository is forked from Linux-version: https://github.com/pjreddie/darknet
More details: http://pjreddie.com/darknet/yolo/
This repository supports:
* both Windows and Linux
* both OpenCV 2.x.x and OpenCV <= 4.0
* both cuDNN >= v7
* CUDA >= 7.5
* also create SO-library on Linux and DLL-library on Windows
### Requirements
* Windows or Linux
* **CMake >= 3.8** for modern CUDA support: https://cmake.org/download/
* **CUDA 10.0**: https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-toolkit-archive (on Linux do [Post-installation Actions](https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuda-installation-guide-linux/index.html#post-installation-actions))
* **OpenCV < 4.0**: use your preferred package manager (brew, apt), build from source using [vcpkg](https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg) or [OpenCV Releases](https://opencv.org/releases.html) (on Windows set system variable `OPENCV_DIR` = `C:\opencv\build` where are `include` and `x64` folders [image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/4096485/53249516-5130f480-36c9-11e9-8238-a6e82e48c6f2.png))
* **cuDNN >= 7.0 for CUDA 10.0** https://developer.nvidia.com/rdp/cudnn-archive (set system variable `CUDNN` = `C:\cudnn` where did you unpack cuDNN. On Linux in `.bashrc`-file, on Windows see the [image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/4096485/53249764-019ef880-36ca-11e9-8ffe-d9cf47e7e462.jpg) )
* **OpenCV < 4.0**: use your preferred package manager (brew, apt), build from source using [vcpkg](https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg) or download from [OpenCV official site](https://opencv.org/releases.html) (on Windows set system variable `OPENCV_DIR` = `C:\opencv\build` - where are the `include` and `x64` folders [image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/4096485/53249516-5130f480-36c9-11e9-8238-a6e82e48c6f2.png))
* **cuDNN >= 7.0 for CUDA 10.0** https://developer.nvidia.com/rdp/cudnn-archive (on **Linux** copy `cudnn.h`,`libcudnn.so`... as desribed here https://docs.nvidia.com/deeplearning/sdk/cudnn-install/index.html#installlinux-tar , on **Windows** copy `cudnn.h`,`cudnn64_7.dll`, `cudnn64_7.lib` as desribed here https://docs.nvidia.com/deeplearning/sdk/cudnn-install/index.html#installwindows )
* **GPU with CC >= 3.0**: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CUDA#GPUs_supported
* on Linux **GCC or Clang**, on Windows **MSVS 2017 (v15)** https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/thank-you-downloading-visual-studio/?sku=Community&rel=15#

* check that each object are mandatory labeled in your dataset - no one object in your data set should not be without label.

* for each object which you want to detect - there must be at least 1 similar object in the Training dataset with about the same: shape, side of object, relative size, angle of rotation, tilt, illumination. So desirable that your training dataset include images with objects at diffrent: scales, rotations, lightings, from different sides, on different backgrounds - you should preferably have 2000 different images for each class or more, and you should train `2000*classes` iterations or more
