YOLOS model finetuned to detect handwritten signatures in document images using [tech4humans/signature-detection](https://huggingface.co/datasets/tech4humans/signature-detection) dataset. Original YOLOS was introduced in the paper You Only Look at One Sequence: Rethinking Transformer in Vision through Object Detection by Fang et al. and first released in this repository. YOLOS is a Vision Transformer (ViT) trained using the DETR loss. Despite its simplicity, a base-sized YOLOS model is able to achieve 42 AP on COCO validation 2017 (similar to DETR and more complex frameworks such as Faster R-CNN). This model is designed for detecting handwritten signatures in scanned documents, contracts, or forms. You can try it instantly in your browser here: [](https://huggingface.co/spaces/mdefrance/signature-detection-demo) Here is how to use this model: Currently, both the image processor and model support PyTorch. The training utilized a dataset built from two public datasets: Tobacco800 and signatures-xc8up, unified and processed in Roboflow. The processed dataset was created by Samuel Lima Braz, and…

Compatibility and lineage

Language coverage was not reported.

Reported base models: hustvl/yolos-base

Parameter count is not a RAM/VRAM requirement. Check precision, quantization, context length and runtime compatibility in the model card; no hardware or API-cost claim is inferred here.

Use and evaluate

Check license terms and access requirements first. Review the model card’s documented loading instructions, evaluations and safety limitations. Benchmark scores are not imported by this directory, and popularity is not an accuracy ranking.

No model weights are downloaded or executed by AltAPIs. Never enable remote model code without reviewing it.
