Model Training

Model Training

Agent-driven custom model training powered by Aegis's Training Agent. Closes the annotation-to-deployment loop: take a COCO dataset from dataset-annotation, fine-tune a YOLO model, auto-export to the optimal format for your hardware, and optionally deploy it as your active detection skill.

What You Get

• Fine-tune YOLO26 — start from nano/small/medium/large pre-trained weights
• COCO dataset input — uses standard format from dataset-annotation skill
• Hardware-aware training — auto-detects CUDA, MPS, ROCm, or CPU
• Auto-export — converts trained model to TensorRT / CoreML / OpenVINO / ONNX via env_config.py
• One-click deploy — replace the active detection model with your fine-tuned version
• Training telemetry — real-time loss, mAP, and epoch progress streamed to Aegis UI
