Description de la source
A custom-trained YOLOv8s specialist detector for honeycomb frame inspection. Built as part of Apiarist, a fully-offline AI hive inspector for backyard beekeepers, made for the Build Small Hackathon.
Trained on the dataset (3,308 labeled images, including 892 queen-bee examples). Four classes:

Recommended per-class confidence thresholds (tuned empirically on real frame photos):
PER_CLASS_CONF = {
"Worker": 0.25,

"Varroa": 0.30, # mites are small
"Queen": 0.15, # lower, try harder to find her
}
yolov8s.ptThe training set includes ~892 queen images, which is far more than the typical bee-detection dataset but still limited compared to the millions of bees in worker class. Queen detection precision is moderate, when the model labels a queen, verify visually. Use as a candidate flag, not as ground truth.
Varroa mite detection works on close-up frames where mites are visible on the dorsal side of bees or in cells, but will miss mites hidden under abdomens.
