Results so far of my deep learning object detection efforts for fossil ammonites.

I wanted a model that could work on my mobile phone to pick out fossils in-situ on the beach, to experiment and see what is possible. More work to do but encouraging signs as a a side hobby!I’m using You Only Look Once (YOLO) v8 first introduced by Redmon et al (2016), from Ultralytics libraries with Python (PyTorch). I used Datature for labelling the data and generating the ML model.
