Yolo11 Pose Estimation Models Support

Hello,

I looked through the model zoo provided in the github repo for voyager-sdk and could not find support for all the yolo11 pose estimation models. Specifically for yolo11m-pose and yolo11x-pose. Is support for these two models something that is being considered in the (near) future? Is it possible to deploy these two models with the repo being as is?

Hi ​@redonbr, welcome!

Indeed, I think the model zoo currently includes YOLO11n-pose and YOLO11l-pose. The m and x variants aren't listed, but as far as I know all YOLO11 pose models share the same underlying architecture, so you could be able to deploy them using the custom weights workflow.

The approach would be to take one of the existing YOLO11 pose YAML files (e.g. yolo11l-pose) as your starting point, then swap in the weights for the m or x variant. The custom weights tutorial walks through this. You'd export your chosen model to ONNX (opset 11, with simplify=True and dynamic=False) and update the YAML accordingly.

A community member actually did something very similar with yolov8x (also not in the zoo) by adapting the yolov8l YAML, and it worked.

What’s the project you’re working on?
