+#### Don't used pre-training weights
+
+When we replace the backbone network, the model initialization is trained by default loading the pre-training weight of the backbone network. Instead of using the pre-training weights of the backbone network, if you want to train the time model from scratch,
+You can set `init_cfg` in 'backbone' to 'None'. In this case, the backbone network will be initialized with the default initialization method, instead of using the trained pre-training weight.
+
+```python
+_base_ = './yolov5_s-v61_syncbn_8xb16-300e_coco.py'
+
+deepen_factor = _base_.deepen_factor
+widen_factor = 1.0

 ## Output prediction results
 
 If you want to save the prediction results as a specific file for offline evaluation, MMYOLO currently supports both json and pkl formats.

+#### 不使用预训练权重
+
+通常情况下，骨干网络初始化都是优先选择预训练权重。如果你不想使用预训练权重，而是想从头开始训练时模型时，
+我们可以将 `backbone` 中的 `init_cfg` 设置为 `None`，此时骨干网络将会以默认的初始化方法进行初始化，
+而不会使用训练好的预训练权重进行初始。以下是以 `YOLOv5` 使用 resnet 作为主干网络为例子，其余算法也是同样的处理：
+
+```python
+_base_ = './yolov5_s-v61_syncbn_8xb16-300e_coco.py'
+
+deepen_factor = _base_.deepen_factor
+widen_factor = 1.0

+        type='mmdet.ResNet', # 使用 mmdet 中的 ResNet
+        depth=50,

 ## 输出预测结果
 
 如果想将预测结果保存为特定的文件，用于离线评估，目前 MMYOLO 支持 json 和 pkl 两种格式。
