π YOLOv11l β UI Elements Detection
This model is a fine-tuned version of Ultralytics/YOLO11, trained to detect UI elements in macOS application screenshots.
It is part of the Screen2AX project β a research effort focused on generating accessibility metadata using computer vision.
β οΈ AGPL-3.0 licence β read before integrating. This model inherits the AGPL-3.0 licence from Ultralytics YOLO11. Embedding it in a product or service β including serving it behind a network API β requires open-sourcing the integrating application under AGPL-3.0, or obtaining a commercial Ultralytics Enterprise Licence. Details in License.
π§ Task Overview
- Task: Object Detection
- Target: Individual UI elements
- Supported Labels:
['AXButton', 'AXDisclosureTriangle', 'AXImage', 'AXLink', 'AXTextArea']
This model detects common interactive components typically surfaced in accessibility trees on macOS.

π How to Use
π§ Install Dependencies
pip install huggingface_hub ultralytics
π§ͺ Load the Model and Run Predictions
from huggingface_hub import hf_hub_download
from ultralytics import YOLO
# Download the model
model_path = hf_hub_download(
repo_id="macpaw-research/yolov11l-ui-elements-detection",
filename="ui-elements-detection.pt",
)
# Load and run prediction
model = YOLO(model_path)
results = model.predict("/path/to/your/image")
# Display result
results[0].show()
π License
This model is licensed under the GNU Affero General Public License v3.0 (AGPL-3.0), as inherited from the original YOLOv11 base model and the Ultralytics training framework.
What this means in practice:
- β Research, evaluation, and open-source (AGPL) projects β free to use, modify, and redistribute, provided derivative works are also released under AGPL-3.0.
- β οΈ Commercial or closed-source use β AGPL-3.0 is a strong copyleft licence whose obligations also trigger on network use: shipping this model inside a proprietary application, or exposing it through a hosted API, requires releasing the integrating application's source code under AGPL-3.0.
- πΌ Need a proprietary integration? Ultralytics offers a commercial Enterprise Licence that lifts the AGPL obligations for YOLO models and their derivatives, including fine-tunes such as this one.
