    YOLO-World v2 (Ultralytics)

    yolov8s-worldv2.pt

    YOLO-World v2 (Ultralytics) is a image and text object detection model (AGPL-3.0). Not runnable on Mixpeek today.

    Something blocks it today, such as the license, remote code or a GPU-only runtime. The reason is below.

    No demo for YOLO-World v2 (Ultralytics) yet

    A video, image, slideshow or playground goes here once we record one on our own data.

    What it is good and bad at

    Best at
    Open-vocabulary detection from a list of text class names, in real time; set classes per namespace without training.
    Worst at
    Rare or compositional phrases; accuracy below closed-set YOLO on COCO classes; license blocks closed commercial use.

    How Mixpeek wires it

    Extractors
    None today
    Feature URIs
    None today
    Vector indexes
    None
    Retriever stages
    None
    Combines with
    • taxonomy labels -> YOLO-World class list -> boxes -> crops -> SigLIP
    • detector boxes -> crops -> SigLIP vectors per object (one document per object, or a multi-vector per frame)

    How it runs

    Status
    Not runnable today Blocked by AGPL-3.0 and pickle .pt weights. Would run as a custom extractor plugin that exports the checkpoint to ONNX once (ultralytics export format=onnx) and serves it with onnxruntime on CPU, emitting boxes, labels and crops. The class list is baked in at export.

    Questions

    What is YOLO-World v2 (Ultralytics) best at?
    Open-vocabulary detection from a list of text class names, in real time; set classes per namespace without training.
    What are the limits of YOLO-World v2 (Ultralytics)?
    Rare or compositional phrases; accuracy below closed-set YOLO on COCO classes; license blocks closed commercial use.
    Can YOLO-World v2 (Ultralytics) be used commercially?
    No. AGPL-3.0: offering it over a network obliges publishing the whole application's source under AGPL; closed commercial use needs an Ultralytics Enterprise license. The original Tencent AILab repo is GPL-3.0.
    How does YOLO-World v2 (Ultralytics) run on Mixpeek?
    Blocked by AGPL-3.0 and pickle .pt weights. Would run as a custom extractor plugin that exports the checkpoint to ONNX once (ultralytics export format=onnx) and serves it with onnxruntime on CPU, emitting boxes, labels and crops. The class list is baked in at export.
