Rebar Detection using YOLO Models

Select a model, upload a GPR image, set processing parameters, and the model will predict rebar locations. Note: This is a prototype implementation running on a vCPU. The image slicing is currently based on pixels. For practical applications, slicing should be performed by distance (meters) in the horizontal direction.
