This repository contains the scripts and configuration files needed to train a YOLOv8 model to classify images of cats and dogs using a dataset of over 10,000 images.
- Dataset Preparation: The dataset consists of more than 10,000 images of cats and dogs. For YOLOv8, each image needs an associated
.txtfile that specifies the bounding box coordinates and class labels. - Data Splitting: The dataset is split into training and validation sets.
- Model Training: The YOLOv8 model is trained using the prepared dataset.
