# Number and Operator Detection Based on YOLO11x

This repository contains a PyTorch-exported model for detecting numbers (0-10) and basic arithmetic operators (`+`, `-`, `×`, `÷`, `=`) using the YOLO11x architecture. The model has been trained to recognize these symbols in images and return their locations and classifications.

## Model Description

The YOLO11x model is optimized for detecting the following:

- **Numbers**: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10
- **Operators**: `+`, `-`, `×`, `÷`, `=`

This model is ideal for applications involving handwritten equations, OCR tasks, or visual recognition of mathematical symbols in real-world images.

## How to Use

To use this model in your project, follow the steps below:

### 1. Installation

Ensure you have the `ultralytics` library installed, which is used for YOLO models:

```bash
pip install ultralytics
```

### 2. Load the Model

You can load the model and perform detection on an image as follows:
```python
from ultralytics import YOLO

# Load the model
model = YOLO("./number_11x.pt")

# Perform detection on an image
results = model("image.png")

# Display or process the results
results.show()  # This will display the image with detected objects
```

### 3. Model Inference
The results object contains bounding boxes, labels (e.g., numbers or operators), and confidence scores for each detected object.

Access them like this:

```python
for result in results:
    print(result.boxes)   # Bounding boxes
    print(result.names)   # Detected classes
    print(result.scores)  # Confidence scores
```
