How to get the loss from the model, if I have ground truth and predicted data for object detection tasks

[glenn-jocher]

@gv-sai-kumar hello! To obtain the loss value from a YOLOv8 model during object detection tasks, you'll need to run the training process with your dataset, which includes both the ground truth and the predictions made by the model. During training, the loss is automatically calculated and used to update the model's weights.

The loss values are typically logged and displayed in the console output, as well as saved to a log file. You can monitor these values to understand how well your model is performing and whether it's learning effectively from the training data.

If you're looking to evaluate the model's performance with a validation set, you can use the Val mode, which will provide you with loss metrics specific to your validation data.

For more detailed information on training and validation processes, please refer to the Ultralytics Docs, specifically the sections on Train and Val modes. 📚🚀
