Would be nice to have examples for tracking, too ...

[glenn-jocher]

@hrbjoern thank you for your suggestion! We currently have tracking examples in our documentation. You can explore them for more insights on implementing tracking with YOLOv8.

OK, thanks. I just figured that since it's mentioned in the beginning of the page (photo), it should also be explained ...

[glenn-jocher]

Yes sorry for the confusion. We've placed the Tracking docs under Modes rather than Tasks here: https://docs.ultralytics.com/modes/track/

Hi there! Could anyone point me to the papers for YOLOv8 and YOLOv11 Instance Segmentation? Thank you!

[glenn-jocher]

@NasserAlqeifi hello! The YOLOv8 and YOLOv11 models don't have specific papers yet. For detailed information, please refer to the Ultralytics documentation. If you have further questions, feel free to ask!

Hi @glenn-jocher ,

Thank you for the information! I'm a master's student currently using the YOLOv8 Instance Segmentation model for my thesis. I've also tried using YOLOv11 and noticed that the documentation mentions it utilizes a variant of the U-Net architecture for segmentation.

I would love to know more about how segmentation and object detection work in YOLOv11, as well as the key differences between YOLOv8 and YOLOv11 in these tasks. Any additional insights would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!

[glenn-jocher]

Thank you for your interest! YOLOv11 uses a variant of the U-Net architecture for segmentation, enhancing accuracy and speed. The key difference from YOLOv8 is the architectural improvements for better performance across tasks. For more details, please refer to the Ultralytics documentation.

Good, Afternoon, does Yolo work for Human Action Detection in realtime?

[glenn-jocher]

@DukeZacharia good afternoon! YOLO can be used for real-time human action detection through pose estimation. For more details, please explore the pose estimation section in the Ultralytics documentation.
