For Edge TPU exports, this is automatically set to 1.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           |
| `device`    | `str`             | `None`          | Specifies the device for exporting: GPU (`device=0`), CPU (`device=cpu`), MPS for Apple silicon (`device=mps`), Huawei Ascend NPU (`device=npu` or `device=npu:0`), or DLA for NVIDIA Jetson (`device=dla:0` or `device=dla:1`). TensorRT exports automatically use GPU, but TensorRT 11.0 does not support DLA.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            |
| `data`      | `str`             | `None`          | Path to the [dataset](https://docs.ultralytics.com/datasets) configuration file, essential for INT8 quantization calibration. If not specified with INT8 enabled, Ultralytics selects a task-specific calibration dataset where required, or falls back to the default dataset for the model task.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          |
| `fraction`  | `float`           | `1.0`           | Specifies the fraction of the dataset to use for INT8 quantization calibration. Allows for calibrating on a subset of the full dataset, useful for experiments or when resources are limited. If not specified with INT8 enabled, the full dataset will be used.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            |
| `end2end`   | `bool`            | `None`          | Overrides the end-to-end mode in YOLO models that support NMS-free inference (YOLO26, YOLOv10). Setting it to `False` lets you export these models to be compatible with the traditional NMS-based postprocessing pipeline. See the [End-to-End Detection guide](../guides/end2end-detection.md) for details.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               |
