 YOLO v2 Tiny is a real-time object detection model implemented with Keras\* from this [repository](https://github.com/david8862/keras-YOLOv3-model-set) and converted to TensorFlow\* framework. This model was pretrained on COCO\* dataset with 80 classes.
 
-## Conversion
-
-1. Download or clone the original [repository](https://github.com/david8862/keras-YOLOv3-model-set) (tested on `d38c3d8` commit).
-2. Use the following commands to get original model (named `yolov2_tiny` in repository) and convert it to Keras\* format (see details in the [README.md](https://github.com/david8862/keras-YOLOv3-model-set/blob/d38c3d865f7190ee9b19a30e91f2b750a31320c1/README.md)  file in the official repository):
-
-   1. Download YOLO v2 Tiny weights:
-        ```
-        wget -O weights/yolov2-tiny.weights https://pjreddie.com/media/files/yolov2-tiny.weights
-        ```
-
-   2. Convert model weights to Keras\*:
-        ```
-        python tools/model_converter/convert.py cfg/yolov2-tiny.cfg weights/yolov2-tiny.weights weights/yolov2-tiny.h5
-        ```
-3. Convert model to protobuf:
-    ```
-    python tools/model_converter/keras_to_tensorflow.py --input_model weights/yolov2-tiny.h5 --output_model=weights/yolo-v2-tiny.pb
-    ```
