Environment

Google Colab

Minimal Reproducible Example

from ultralytics import YOLO

model = YOLO("best.pt")

Additional

I followed the tutorial on google colab, and i have successfully trained a model with my own dataset. I have tested the trained model, named "best.pt", and it also work pretty well. Then I downloaded the "best.pt" from google colab, and tried to load the model on local side. The script I used is:

from ultralytics import YOLO

model = YOLO("best.pt")

just the same as the script for prediction on DOCs , but i encountered the following error:

requirements: YOLOv8 requirement "models" not found, attempting AutoUpdate... requirements: ❌ Command 'pip install "models" ' returned non-zero exit status 1.

I found out that i can't load the best.pt model using the above code. Is there any adjustion I need to make? Thanks for reading.

Hi, @Melvin0419 👋🏻! Did you train and load the model in the same notebook?

Hi, @Melvin0419 👋🏻! Did you train and load the model in the same notebook?

Thanks for replying! No, I load the model in another notebook. I think that is the problem! But is there a way that i can load the model in another notebook? different from the notebook for training.

You need to make sure that version of ultralytics is the same in training and loading notebook.

Yes, both notebooks have the version ultralytics==8.0.20. And I have some updates! Previously, I chose the yolov8s as my model to train, and it cause an error when loading it into another notebook, But, if I trained the model using yolov8n, the trained model can be loaded into my loading notebook successfully, without showing the error I encountered when using yolov8s.

Did you try to update the ultralytics version, and use something more recent?
