Train from a Universe Checkpoint
Start training from a checkpoint based on one of the 50,000+ trained models available on Roboflow Universe.
Training from a Roboflow Universe Checkpoint
First, ensure you have selected the Workspace for your current project in your Universe profile, and "Starred" the dataset you'd like to use for Transfer Learning.
Additionally, check to see the dataset you select has a "Model" tag on it, and/or "Try Pre-Trained" model on the project's landing page in Roboflow Universe, or it will not be available within your Workspace as a training checkpoint.
Now, within the Roboflow Main App UI, navigate to the "Versions" page of your target dataset/project. Select the version you wish to train.
You can only start a training job from a dataset version that has not already been trained with Roboflow Train (no green checkmark is present on the version).
Click "Start Training."
Next, choose the Fast or Accurate model, and click "Continue."
If you are training a Single-Label Classification, Multi-Label Classification, or Semantic Segmentation project, you will not have this Fast or Accurate option. For these project types, you can just click "Continue," and then "Start Training" to kick off your training job.
Under "Select a Model," choose the project name for the dataset you marked (Starred) in Roboflow Universe.
Now click "Start Training" to begin your training job. You will receive an email to the account email on file when the training job is complete.
Monitoring Your Training Job
You can monitor your training job's progress. The UI will show your machine starting up to begin training.
Deploying Your Model
After training, your model is ready to be used for inference and embedded in a custom application! See the Inference Documentation page for all the options.
