- YOLO-World, an open-vocabulary object detector from Tencent AI Lab, Tencent's ARC Lab and Huazhong University of Science and Technology (CVPR 2024): it adds vision-language modeling to fast YOLO detectors so they find objects named in text prompts zero-shot, using a re-parameterizable vision-language path aggregation network and region-text contrastive pre-training, reaching 35.4 AP on LVIS at 52 FPS on a V100. Later updates added v2, high-resolution and image-prompt models; code is GPL-3.0.
