š Excited to open-source the GWHD Wheat Head Detection Model Zoo on Hugging Face.
This release includes:
- š¤ YOLOv8, YOLOv11, YOLOv26 and RF-DETR object detection models trained on GWHD (Global Wheat Head Dataset), spanning nano through x-large variants across both architecture families.
- š¾ Benchmarked on GWHD's dense, single-class wheat-head detection task ā ~45 annotated heads per image on average, captured across multiple countries, genotypes, and growth stages, a genuinely hard small/dense-object setting.
- š Detailed model cards with mAP/precision/recall, per-class breakdowns, PR/F1 curves and confusion matrices (YOLO), qualitative detection showcases, and full training configurations for reproducibility.
Headline numbers:
- š Best mAP@50: 74.25% (YOLOv11x), 34.92% mAP@50:95, 83.37% precision.
- ā” Best efficiency tradeoff: YOLOv26s hits 70.49% mAP@50 at just 22.8 GFLOPs (10.0M params) ā within ~4 points of the top YOewer FLOPs (196.0 GFLOPs).
The goal is to make benchmarking and experimenting with agricultural computer vision easier by providing ready-to-use pretrained checkpoints, all trained and evaluated under one shared pipeline (DetectionBench: https://github.com/dronefreak/DetectionBench).
Full credit for the underlying dataset goes to Etienne David, Mario Serouart, Simon Madec, and the Global Wheat Head Detection 2020/2021) ā this release is anunofficial, YOLO-ready reformatting of their work, not a new dataset.
If you're working on precision at detection, or just want areproducible detector benchmark, I hope these resources are useful.
