# YOLOv5 Sunspot Hunter
This repository contains a YOLOv5 model trained to detect and identify sunspots in solar images. The model is designed to facilitate the monitoring and study of solar activity.
## Model Information
- **Model:** YOLOv5
- **Task:** Object Detection
- **Classes:** Sunspots
- **File:** `best.pt`
## How to Use
To use the YOLOv5 Sunspot Hunter model, follow these steps:
### 1. Loading the Model
You can load the model using the `torch` library and the `ultralytics/yolov5` repository. Here's an example in Python:
```python
import torch
# Load the model
model = torch.hub.load('ultralytics/yolov5', 'custom', path='best.pt')
# Load an image
img = 'path/to/your/image.jpg'
# Perform inference
results = model(img)
# Display results
results.show()
```
### 2. Running Inference
After loading the model, you can perform inference on your images to detect and identify sunspots. The model will output the image with bounding boxes around detected sunspots and other relevant details.
### 3. Example Usage
Here's an example of how to use the model to detect sunspots in an image:
```python
import torch
from PIL import Image
# Load the model
model = torch.hub.load('ultralytics/yolov5', 'custom', path='best.pt')
# Load an image
img = Image.open('path/to/your/solar_image.jpg')
# Perform inference
results = model(img)
# Print results
results.print() # Print results to console
results.show() # Display results
# Save results
results.save('path/to/save/results/') # Save results to a directory
```
## Model Training
The model was trained using a custom dataset of solar images. The dataset was annotated with bounding boxes around sunspots using MakeSense, and the YOLOv5 model was trained using these annotations. The training process involved:
1. Collecting and annotating the data.
2. Training the YOLOv5 model with the annotated data.
3. Fine-tuning the model to improve accuracy.
### Training Configuration
