Accuracy#

class ignite.metrics.Accuracy(output_transform=<function Accuracy.<lambda>>, is_multilabel=False, device=device(type='cpu'))[source]#

Calculates the accuracy for binary, multiclass and multilabel data.

Accuracy=TP+TNTP+TN+FP+FN\text{Accuracy} = \frac{ TP + TN }{ TP + TN + FP + FN }

where TP\text{TP} is true positives, TN\text{TN} is true negatives, FP\text{FP} is false positives and FN\text{FN} is false negatives.

  • update must receive output of the form (y_pred, y) or {'y_pred': y_pred, 'y': y}.

  • y_pred must be in the following shape (batch_size, num_categories, …) or (batch_size, …).

  • y must be in the following shape (batch_size, …).

  • y and y_pred must be in the following shape of (batch_size, num_categories, …) and num_categories must be greater than 1 for multilabel cases.

In binary and multilabel cases, the elements of y and y_pred should have 0 or 1 values. Thresholding of predictions can be done as below:

def thresholded_output_transform(output):
    y_pred, y = output
    y_pred = torch.round(y_pred)
    return y_pred, y

binary_accuracy = Accuracy(thresholded_output_transform)
Parameters
  • output_transform (Callable) – a callable that is used to transform the Engine’s process_function’s output into the form expected by the metric. This can be useful if, for example, you have a multi-output model and you want to compute the metric with respect to one of the outputs.

  • is_multilabel (bool) – flag to use in multilabel case. By default, False.

  • device (Union[str, device]) – specifies which device updates are accumulated on. Setting the metric’s device to be the same as your update arguments ensures the update method is non-blocking. By default, CPU.

Methods

compute

Computes the metric based on it's accumulated state.

reset

Resets the metric to it's initial state.

update

Updates the metric's state using the passed batch output.

compute()[source]#

Computes the metric based on it’s accumulated state.

By default, this is called at the end of each epoch.

Returns

the actual quantity of interest. However, if a Mapping is returned, it will be (shallow) flattened into engine.state.metrics when completed() is called.

Return type

Any

Raises

NotComputableError – raised when the metric cannot be computed.

reset()[source]#

Resets the metric to it’s initial state.

By default, this is called at the start of each epoch.

Return type

None

update(output)[source]#

Updates the metric’s state using the passed batch output.

By default, this is called once for each batch.

Parameters

output (Sequence[Tensor]) – the is the output from the engine’s process function.

Return type

None
