Here's a tutorial about doing custom training of YOLO (Darknet): https://medium.com/@manivannan_data/how-to-train-yolov3-to-detect-custom-objects-ccbcafeb13d2

The tutorial guides how to set values in the .cfg files:

  • classes = Number of classes, OK
  • filters = (classes + 5) * 3

Why is it 'plus 5' then 'times 3'?

Some say it's (classes + coords + 1) * num, but I can't guess it out the meaning.

    $\begingroup$ 3 boxes per feature map and for every box you predict class probabilities + width + height + x + y + object confidence. $\endgroup$ – Brale Feb 27 at 11:15
  • $\begingroup$ uhm, and what is that 'coords'? $\endgroup$ – datdinhquoc Feb 28 at 2:27

    $\begingroup$ well its x, y, height and width $\endgroup$ – Brale Feb 28 at 8:57

As said by @brale in the comment below the question:

filters = (classes + 5) * 3
= (classes + width + height + x + y + confidence) * num
= (classes + 1+1+1+1+1) * num
= (classes + 5) * num

YOLOv3 dectects 3 boxes per grid cell, so it is:

filters = (classes + 5) * 3
