@valentinitnelav According to some sources, using pretrained weight does not necessarily imporve results by a greate margin if by its own enough data is available. It can howerever imporve training time, e.g. less epochs needed and even offer better generalizability.
@stark-t that is helpful to know; if you happen to have some links at hand about this, could you put them here? This might be handy later.
Showld we attempt some trainings from scratch besides using transfer learning for the YOLO architectures? I do not remember if Robin tried this already in his thesis. I am curious if for 300 epochs having the start advantage (transfer learning) of the COCO weights really makes a significant difference.
