YOLO-NAS - A New Best Object Detection Model!

In May 3, 2023 a new best YOLO model was introduced called YOLO-NAS which achieves state of the art performance on object detection tasks.
In this video we will explain how YOLO NAS model has been created by Deci AI.

We will talk about Neural Architecture Search which is a subdomain of AutoML to automatically create model architectures, which Deci has a proprietary implementation of called AutoNAC which stands for Automated Neural Architecture Construction.

Additionally we will discuss about the quantization aware architecture of YOLO-NAS which enabled the model to be optimized to run with very low latencies while preserving very high accuracy.

They also used a hybrid quantization technology to balance between accuracy and latency.

YOLO NAS was trained on large datasets such as Object365 and COCO and it can serve as a foundational model for object detection by fine-tuning it on datasets which are relevant for downstream tasks.

Easily the best video on YOLO-NAS so far!

Awesome video, it's a very easy to follow and understand the core concept of the YOLO NAS.

Is there any activation function used in YOLO NAS. If yes, which one and where can I find that information?

Which is better to run on CPU. Nas or v5, 7, or 8
