In general, the manual detection of animals with their names is a very tedious task. To overcome this challenge, this research work has developed a YOLOV3 model to identify the animal present in the image given by user. The algorithm used in YOLOV3 model is darknet, which has a pretrained dataset. The overall performance of the model is based on different training images and testing images of the dataset.The main goal of this research work is to build an animal recognition methodology using YOLOV3 model. The image of animal will be given as input, then it will display the name of the animal as output by using YOLOV3 model. The detection is done by using a pre-trained coco dataset from darknet.
