Question: Originality and license #5

Closed josht000 closed 1 year ago

josht000 commented 1 year ago

First of all I see you've been very busy creating some nice opensource projects. Thanks for that. Ultralytics makes nice projects as well but they add a lot of abstraction away from the core PyTorch layers which can be frustrating to deal with.

Question, if you were to get into a legal battle with Ultralytics could you say that your code itself is genuinely yours (ie. not copied or derived from Ultralytics)? I'm not referring to the architecture which I know you're trying tor replicate through your own ingenuity.

Thanks!

@josht000 I copied some parts of the code from YOLOv5, YOLOv8, and TIMM. All codes in the repository do not belong to me but some parts.

@jahongir7174 Thanks for that. However, you'd probably have to adopt the same license as Ultralytics has and put that in your code.
