YOLOv8 is a state-of-the-art object detection and image segmentation model created by Ultralytics, the developers of YOLOv5. YOLOv8, launched on January 10, 2023, features:

A new backbone network;
A design that makes it easy to compare model performance with older models in the YOLO family;
A new loss function and;
A new anchor-free detection head.
