Learn how to train custom YOLO object detection models on a free GPU inside Google Colab! This video provides end-to-end instructions for gathering a dataset, labeling images with Label Studio, training a YOLO model, and running it on a local computer with a customizable Python script. The video shows how to use YOLO11, but it also works with YOLOv8 and YOLOv5.
Thanks goes to HumanSignal, the creators of Label Studio, for sponsoring this video!
