YOLOv8 Object Detection on Custom Dataset | Step by Step Tutorial

A complete YOLOv8 custom object detection tutorial with a two-classe custom dataset. I cover how to annotate custom datasets in YOLO format, set up an environment for YOLOv8, and train custom object detection models. Although I have demonstrated using the YOLOv8 medium version, the method is generic enough to train all variations of YOLOv8.
