Beyond ImageNet: Smarter Model Pretraining for Real-World Vision Tasks

Is ImageNet still the best starting point for computer vision models? We put it to the test. This guide shares benchmarks comparing domain-specific, self-supervised pretraining (e.g., with DINOv2) against ImageNet across popular models like YOLOv8, highlighting where traditional baselines fall short. Download the guide to see our benchmarks.
