Yolov5 + Deep Sort with PyTorch

Yolov5_DeepSort_Pytorch

Real-time multi-object tracker using YOLO v5 and deep sort

This repository contains a two-stage-tracker. The detections generated by YOLOv5, a family of object detection architectures and models pretrained on the COCO dataset, are passed to a Deep Sort algorithm which tracks the objects. It can track any object that your Yolov5 model was trained to detect.

track_all

Before you run the tracker

Clone the repository recursively:

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/mikel-brostrom/Yolov5_DeepSort_Pytorch.git

If you already cloned and forgot to use --recurse-submodules you can run git submodule update --init

Make sure that you fulfill all the requirements: Python 3.8 or later with all requirements.txt dependencies installed, including torch>=1.7. To install, run:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Tracking sources

Tracking can be run on most video formats

python3 track.py --source ... --show-vid  # show live inference results as well

Video: --source file.mp4
Webcam: --source 0
RTSP stream: --source rtsp://170.93.143.139/rtplive/470011e600ef003a004ee33696235daa
HTTP stream: --source http://wmccpinetop.axiscam.net/mjpg/video.mjpg

Select a Yolov5 family model

There is a clear trade-off between model inference speed and accuracy. In order to make it possible to fulfill your inference speed/accuracy needs
you can select a Yolov5 family model for automatic download

python3 track.py --source 0 --yolo_weights yolov5s.pt --img 640  # smallest yolov5 family model

python3 track.py --source 0 --yolo_weights yolov5x6.pt --img 1280  # largest yolov5 family model

Filter tracked classes

By default the tracker tracks all MS COCO classes.

If you only want to track persons I recommend you to get these weights for increased performance

python3 track.py --source 0 --yolo_weights yolov5/weights/crowdhuman_yolov5m.pt --classes 0  # tracks persons, only

If you want to track a subset of the MS COCO classes, add their corresponding index after the classes flag

python3 track.py --source 0 --yolo_weights yolov5s.pt --classes 16 17  # tracks cats and dogs, only

Here is a list of all the possible objects that a Yolov5 model trained on MS COCO can detect. Notice that the indexing for the classes in this repo starts at zero.

MOT compliant results

Can be saved to inference/output by

python3 track.py --source ... --save-txt
