Should I still use yolov5 v4.0? #11

Sorry, this is not a issue, but I would like to ask about the comparison between yolov5 v4.0 and yolov8.

To get NMS, I used yolov5 v4.0 and this repo for 1 year. But yolov8 came out and it support NMS.

My iOS project use yolov5s and yolov5x model, one for speed, one for accuracy.

Should I still use yolov5 v4.0 or go with yolov8?

We can't give you specifics on which model is better as we neither developed yolov5 nor yolov8. We developed this repository as we wanted to use yolov5 on iOS, but at the time the model did not support NMS and wasn't optmized for IOS at all.

There has always been a few naming issues with yolo as the different versions (yolov1 - yolov8) were not created by the same persons. So I would be somewhat careful with promises that one model is the sucessor of the other. It seem thoug that yolov8 was created by the same company and they advertise their new model to be faster than yolov5. So I would give it a shot! Just see what works best for your use case.
