## Overview

This repository is a Colab-style YOLOv8x drone-detection research project. Its main workflow configures a labeled dataset, trains a detector, and records results; the notebook also describes video tracking. The available source excerpt omits parts of the training and tracking cells, so the graph shows only documented or directly supported connections.

Main entry points: [`drone_detection_yolov8x.py`](https://github.com/doguilmak/drone-detection-yolov8x/blob/main/drone_detection_yolov8x.py) (Training Notebook), [`coco.yaml`](https://github.com/doguilmak/drone-detection-yolov8x/blob/main/coco.yaml) (Dataset Config), [`train_batch`](https://github.com/doguilmak/drone-detection-yolov8x/tree/main/train_batch) (Training Batch), [`test_batch`](https://github.com/doguilmak/drone-detection-yolov8x/tree/main/test_batch) (Test Batch)
