Welcome to Metrics Reloaded’s documentation!¶

A Python implementaiton of Metrics Reloaded - A new recommendation framework for biomedical image analysis validation.

Installation¶

Create and activate a new Conda environment:

conda create -n metrics python=3.10 pip
conda activate metrics

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/csudre/MetricsReloaded.git
cd MetricsReloaded

Install the package:

python -m pip install .

You can alternatively install the package in editable mode:

python -m pip install -e .

This is useful if you are developing MetricsReloaded and want to see changes in the code automatically applied to the installed library.

All functions used in this framework are documented here <https://metricsreloaded.readthedocs.io/en/latest/?badge=latest>

The repository is organised in three main folders:

processes: this allows for the combination of multiple metrics in an evaluation setting and reflects the tasks tackled in the MetricsReloaded framework namely:
1. Image Level Classification (ILC)
2. Semantic Segmentation (SS)
3. Object Detection (OD)
4. Instance Segmentation (SS)
metrics: this contains all the individual metrics reported and discussed in the MetricsReloaded guidelines. Those are classified as either:
1. pairwise_measures - all metrics considering a binary or multiclass input
2. prob_pairwise_measures - all metrics relying on multi threshold and/or probabilistic input
3. calibration_measures - all metrics related to the evaluation of the calibration of probabilistic outputs
utility: this contains all ancillary function relevant notably for aggregation of metrics, or preliminary tools required for complext assignments prior to metrics calculation notably in the case of Object Detection and Instance Segmentation.
