I am interested in using PaddlePaddle's YOLO models for a project. However, before proceeding, I need to clarify the licensing terms associated with these models to ensure compliance with my project's requirements and obligations.

Question: Could you please confirm whether the PaddlePaddle YOLO models are licensed under the Apache License or the GPL (General Public License)? This information is crucial for understanding how I can use and distribute these models within my project.
