on GitHub

🌟 Summary

This release brings cleaner, more customizable metric reporting across all tasks, improved tracking reliability, and efficiency boosts for video processing. It also enhances documentation and testing for a smoother user experience. 🚀✨

📊 Key Changes

• 📝 Added decimals and normalize options to all metric summary() methods, letting users control the precision and format of evaluation results.
• 📊 Metric summaries for detection, segmentation, pose, classification, and OBB tasks are now consistently formatted and easier to read.
• 📚 Expanded and clarified documentation for metric reporting, including usage examples.
• 🏎️ Improved efficiency in the TrackZone solution by reusing region masks instead of recreating them for every frame.
• 🎥 Enhanced object tracking by ensuring tracklet "age" increases even when no detections are found, leading to more reliable tracking.
• 🧪 Updated continuous integration (CI) to test all features, including those in the "solutions" package, for better code quality.
• 🌐 Updated the Google Cloud quickstart guide to direct users to the latest and most accurate resource.

🎯 Purpose & Impact

• 📈 Easier, Sharper Results: Users can now generate metric reports with their preferred level of precision, making results simpler to interpret and share.
• 🛠️ Consistent Experience: Unified output and improved documentation help both new and advanced users understand and use evaluation metrics effectively.
• 🏃 Faster Video Processing: Optimizations in TrackZone reduce unnecessary computation, speeding up real-time and long-duration video analysis.
• 🎬 More Reliable Tracking: Improved handling of missed detections ensures smoother object tracking, especially in challenging video scenarios.
• 🔒 Better Stability: Enhanced testing in CI means users benefit from more robust and reliable releases.
• 🚀 Smoother Onboarding: Updated cloud documentation ensures users get started quickly and accurately with Ultralytics tools.

Overall, this update delivers a more polished, efficient, and user-friendly experience for anyone working with Ultralytics models and solutions!
