Today we’re diving into something really cool: fine-tuning YOLO models for soccer detection. We’re going to detect balls, referees, players, and goalkeepers in soccer matches using Ultralytics’ fine-tuning tools.

The popular YOLO models you’ll find out there, like Ultralytics YOLOv11, and YOLOX in different sizes, are mostly pre-trained on something called the COCO dataset.

This article is not just about Machine Learning and Object Detection, it’s about Elixir interoperability and how we can take advantage of the Python’s fantastic set of ML libraries, bringing their features into the Elixir world.

We see how to bring YOLO, a state-of-the-art real-time object detection system, in a Phoenix web app.
