🛒 Retail Shelf Gap Detection Model

This is a YOLOv8-based object detection model fine-tuned on the Shelf Images for Planograms dataset to detect gaps in retail shelf arrangements. The model aims to assist in planogram compliance checking by identifying empty spaces on shelves and computing compliance scores.

📌 Use Case

This model is intended for retail analytics teams to:

• Detect shelf gaps in retail store images.
• Quantify compliance against a predefined planogram.
• Evaluate image quality and calculate gap-related metrics.

🧠 Model Details

• Base Model: Ultralytics/YOLOv8
• Task: Object Detection
• Trained On: Shelf Images for Planograms Dataset (2095 images)
• Framework: PyTorch via Ultralytics

🧪 Metrics and Scoring Breakdown

The model is used as part of a retail shelf scoring pipeline that computes:

• Gap Score (50%)
• Image Quality Score (30%)
• Gap Density Score (20%)
• Final Compliance Score = Weighted sum of the above
