In this tutorial, we'll show you how to train Object Detection Transformers using DETR as an example. We'll guide you through every step of the process, starting with setting up your Python environment and demonstrating DETR model inference on example images.

Next, we'll show you how to download custom datasets from Roboflow Universe and build custom PyTorch COCO Detection datasets. We'll also cover how to visualize COCO dataset entries and build custom PyTorch data loaders.

At the core of this tutorial, we'll demonstrate how to build a custom PyTorch Lightning DETR module for training your own object detection model. We'll then guide you through training DETR on your custom dataset, followed by custom DETR model inference and evaluation.
