Performance measures for object detection evaluation

2010    Ozdemir, Bahadir; Aksoy, Selim; Eckert, Sandra; Pesaresi, Martino; Ehrlich, Daniele

We propose a new procedure for quantitative evaluation of object detection algorithms. The procedure consists of a matching stage for finding correspondences between reference and output objects, an accuracy score that is sensitive to object shapes as well as boundary and fragmentation errors, and a ranking step for final ordering of the algorithms using multiple performance indicators. The procedure is illustrated on a building detection task where the resulting rankings are consistent with the visual inspection of the detection maps. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
