Model Registry

OpenDetect ships a built-in model registry. Each model entry defines:

• model_id

• implementation family (rfdetr or yolox)

• default input size

• remote artifact path

• aliases and description

Included Families

Family	Year	License posture	Why included
RF-DETR	2026	Open-source, commercial-friendly	Strong modern accuracy/speed tradeoff
YOLOX	2021	Apache-2.0	Stable last Apache-2.0 YOLO-family baseline

Model IDs

Model ID	Family	Default Input
rfdetr-n	RF-DETR	384x384
rfdetr-s	RF-DETR	512x512
rfdetr-m	RF-DETR	576x576
rfdetr-l	RF-DETR	704x704
yolox-tiny	YOLOX	416x416
yolox-s	YOLOX	640x640
