Metrics (contrib)
[TOC]
Ops for evaluation metrics and summary statistics.
API
This module provides functions for computing streaming metrics: metrics computed
on dynamically valued Tensors. Each metric declaration returns a
"value_tensor", an idempotent operation that returns the current value of the
metric, and an "update_op", an operation that accumulates the information
from the current value of the Tensors being measured as well as returns the
value of the "value_tensor".
To use any of these metrics, one need only declare the metric, call update_op
repeatedly to accumulate data over the desired number of Tensor values (often
each one is a single batch) and finally evaluate the value_tensor. For example,
to use the streaming_mean:
value = ...
mean_value, update_op = tf.contrib.metrics.streaming_mean(values)
sess.run(tf.initialize_local_variables())
for i in range(number_of_batches):
print('Mean after batch %d: %f' % (i, update_op.eval())
print('Final Mean: %f' % mean_value.eval())
Each metric function adds nodes to the graph that hold the state necessary to compute the value of the metric as well as a set of operations that actually perform the computation. Every metric evaluation is composed of three steps
- Initialization: initializing the metric state.
- Aggregation: updating the values of the metric state.
- Finalization: computing the final metric value.
In the above example, calling streaming_mean creates a pair of state variables
that will contain (1) the running sum and (2) the count of the number of samples
in the sum. Because the streaming metrics use local variables,
the Initialization stage is performed by running the op returned
by tf.initialize_local_variables(). It sets the sum and count variables to
zero.
Next, Aggregation is performed by examining the current state of values
and incrementing the state variables appropriately. This step is executed by
running the update_op returned by the metric.
Finally, finalization is performed by evaluating the "value_tensor"
In practice, we commonly want to evaluate across many batches and multiple metrics. To do so, we need only run the metric computation operations multiple times:
labels = ...
predictions = ...
accuracy, update_op_acc = tf.contrib.metrics.streaming_accuracy(
labels, predictions)
error, update_op_error = tf.contrib.metrics.streaming_mean_absolute_error(
labels, predictions)
sess.run(tf.initialize_local_variables())
for batch in range(num_batches):
sess.run([update_op_acc, update_op_error])
accuracy, mean_absolute_error = sess.run([accuracy, mean_absolute_error])
Note that when evaluating the same metric multiple times on different inputs, one must specify the scope of each metric to avoid accumulating the results together:
labels = ...
predictions0 = ...
predictions1 = ...
accuracy0 = tf.contrib.metrics.accuracy(labels, predictions0, name='preds0')
accuracy1 = tf.contrib.metrics.accuracy(labels, predictions1, name='preds1')
Certain metrics, such as streaming_mean or streaming_accuracy, can be weighted
via a weights argument. The weights tensor must be the same size as the
labels and predictions tensors and results in a weighted average of the metric.
Other metrics, such as streaming_recall, streaming_precision, and streaming_auc,
are not well defined with regard to weighted samples. However, a binary
ignore_mask argument can be used to ignore certain values at graph executation
time.
Metric Ops
tf.contrib.metrics.streaming_accuracy(predictions, labels, weights=None, metrics_collections=None, updates_collections=None, name=None)
Calculates how often predictions matches labels.
The streaming_accuracy function creates two local variables, total and
count that are used to compute the frequency with which predictions
matches labels. This frequency is ultimately returned as accuracy: an
idempotent operation that simply divides total by count.
For estimation of the metric over a stream of data, the function creates an
update_op operation that updates these variables and returns the accuracy.
Internally, an is_correct operation computes a Tensor with elements 1.0
where the corresponding elements of predictions and labels match and 0.0
otherwise. Then update_op increments total with the reduced sum of the
product of weights and is_correct, and it increments count with the
reduced sum of weights.
If weights is None, weights default to 1. Use weights of 0 to mask values.
Args:

tf.contrib.metrics.streaming_mean(values, weights=None, metrics_collections=None, updates_collections=None, name=None)
Computes the (weighted) mean of the given values.
The streaming_mean function creates two local variables, total and count
that are used to compute the average of values. This average is ultimately
returned as mean which is an idempotent operation that simply divides
total by count.
For estimation of the metric over a stream of data, the function creates an
update_op operation that updates these variables and returns the mean.
update_op increments total with the reduced sum of the product of values
and weights, and it increments count with the reduced sum of weights.

The streaming_recall function creates two local variables, true_positives
and false_negatives, that are used to compute the recall. This value is
ultimately returned as recall, an idempotent operation that simply divides
true_positives by the sum of true_positives and false_negatives.
For estimation of the metric over a stream of data, the function creates an
update_op that updates these variables and returns the recall. update_op
weights each prediction by the corresponding value in weights.

tuple.
tf.contrib.metrics.streaming_precision(*args, **kwargs)
Computes the precision of the predictions with respect to the labels. (deprecated arguments)
SOME ARGUMENTS ARE DEPRECATED. They will be removed after 2016-10-19.
Instructions for updating:
ignore_mask is being deprecated. Instead use weights with values 0.0 and 1.0 to mask values. For example, weights=tf.logical_not(mask).
The streaming_precision function creates two local variables,
true_positives and false_positives, that are used to compute the
precision. This value is ultimately returned as precision, an idempotent
operation that simply divides true_positives by the sum of true_positives
and false_positives.
For estimation of the metric over a stream of data, the function creates an
update_op operation that updates these variables and returns the
precision. update_op weights each prediction by the corresponding value in
weights.
If weights is None, weights default to 1. Use weights of 0 to mask values.
Alternatively, if ignore_mask is not None, then mask values where
ignore_mask is True.

tuple.
tf.contrib.metrics.streaming_auc(predictions, labels, weights=None, num_thresholds=200, metrics_collections=None, updates_collections=None, curve='ROC', name=None)
Computes the approximate AUC via a Riemann sum.
The streaming_auc function creates four local variables, true_positives,
true_negatives, false_positives and false_negatives that are used to
compute the AUC. To discretize the AUC curve, a linearly spaced set of
thresholds is used to compute pairs of recall and precision values. The area
under the ROC-curve is therefore computed using the height of the recall
values by the false positive rate, while the area under the PR-curve is the
computed using the height of the precision values by the recall.
This value is ultimately returned as auc, an idempotent operation that
computes the area under a discretized curve of precision versus recall values
(computed using the aforementioned variables). The num_thresholds variable
controls the degree of discretization with larger numbers of thresholds more
closely approximating the true AUC.
For estimation of the metric over a stream of data, the function creates an
update_op operation that updates these variables and returns the auc.
If weights is None, weights default to 1. Use weights of 0 to mask values.

Computes the recall@k of the predictions with respect to dense labels. (deprecated arguments)
SOME ARGUMENTS ARE DEPRECATED. They will be removed after 2016-10-19.
Instructions for updating:
ignore_mask is being deprecated. Instead use weights with values 0.0 and 1.0 to mask values. For example, weights=tf.logical_not(mask).
The streaming_recall_at_k function creates two local variables, total and
count, that are used to compute the recall@k frequency. This frequency is
ultimately returned as recall_at_<k>: an idempotent operation that simply
divides total by count.
For estimation of the metric over a stream of data, the function creates an
update_op operation that updates these variables and returns the
recall_at_<k>. Internally, an in_top_k operation computes a Tensor with
shape [batch_size] whose elements indicate whether or not the corresponding
label is in the top k predictions. Then update_op increments total
with the reduced sum of weights where in_top_k is True, and it
increments count with the reduced sum of weights.
If weights is None, weights default to 1. Use weights of 0 to mask values.
Alternatively, if ignore_mask is not None, then mask values where
ignore_mask is True.

if either metrics_collections or updates_collections are not a list or
tuple.
tf.contrib.metrics.streaming_mean_absolute_error(predictions, labels, weights=None, metrics_collections=None, updates_collections=None, name=None)
Computes the mean absolute error between the labels and predictions.
The streaming_mean_absolute_error function creates two local variables,
total and count that are used to compute the mean absolute error. This
average is weighted by weights, and it is ultimately returned as
mean_absolute_error: an idempotent operation that simply divides total by
count.
For estimation of the metric over a stream of data, the function creates an
update_op operation that updates these variables and returns the
mean_absolute_error. Internally, an absolute_errors operation computes the
absolute value of the differences between predictions and labels. Then

Calculate per-step mean Intersection-Over-Union (mIOU). (deprecated arguments)
SOME ARGUMENTS ARE DEPRECATED. They will be removed after 2016-10-19.
Instructions for updating:
ignore_mask is being deprecated. Instead use weights with values 0.0 and 1.0 to mask values. For example, weights=tf.logical_not(mask).
Mean Intersection-Over-Union is a common evaluation metric for
semantic image segmentation, which first computes the IOU for each
semantic class and then computes the average over classes.
IOU is defined as follows:
IOU = true_positive / (true_positive + false_positive + false_negative).
The predictions are accumulated in a confusion matrix, weighted by weights,
and mIOU is then calculated from it.
For estimation of the metric over a stream of data, the function creates an

mean_relative_error: an idempotent operation that simply divides total by
count.
For estimation of the metric over a stream of data, the function creates an
update_op operation that updates these variables and returns the
mean_reative_error. Internally, a relative_errors operation divides the
absolute value of the differences between predictions and labels by the
normalizer. Then update_op increments total with the reduced sum of the
product of weights and relative_errors, and it increments count with the
reduced sum of weights.

The streaming_mean_squared_error function creates two local variables,
total and count that are used to compute the mean squared error.
This average is weighted by weights, and it is ultimately returned as
mean_squared_error: an idempotent operation that simply divides total by
count.
For estimation of the metric over a stream of data, the function creates an
update_op operation that updates these variables and returns the
mean_squared_error. Internally, a squared_error operation computes the
element-wise square of the difference between predictions and labels. Then
update_op increments total with the reduced sum of the product of
weights and squared_error, and it increments count with the reduced sum
of weights.

The streaming_root_mean_squared_error function creates two local variables,
total and count that are used to compute the root mean squared error.
This average is weighted by weights, and it is ultimately returned as
root_mean_squared_error: an idempotent operation that takes the square root
of the division of total by count.
For estimation of the metric over a stream of data, the function creates an
update_op operation that updates these variables and returns the
root_mean_squared_error. Internally, a squared_error operation computes
the element-wise square of the difference between predictions and labels.
Then update_op increments total with the reduced sum of the product of

tf.contrib.metrics.streaming_covariance(predictions, labels, weights=None, metrics_collections=None, updates_collections=None, name=None)
Computes the unbiased sample covariance between predictions and labels.
The streaming_covariance function creates four local variables,
comoment, mean_prediction, mean_label, and count, which are used to
compute the sample covariance between predictions and labels across multiple
batches of data. The covariance is ultimately returned as an idempotent
operation that simply divides comoment by count - 1. We use count - 1
in order to get an unbiased estimate.
The algorithm used for this online computation is described in
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algorithms_for_calculating_variance.
Specifically, the formula used to combine two sample comoments is
C_AB = C_A + C_B + (E[x_A] - E[x_B]) * (E[y_A] - E[y_B]) * n_A * n_B / n_AB
The comoment for a single batch of data is simply
sum((x - E[x]) * (y - E[y])), optionally weighted.
If weights is not None, then it is used to compute weighted comoments,
means, and count. NOTE: these weights are treated as "frequency weights", as
opposed to "reliability weights". See discussion of the difference on
https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Weighted_arithmetic_mean#Weighted_sample_variance

The streaming_pearson_correlation function delegates to
streaming_covariance the tracking of three [co]variances:
streaming_covariance(predictions, labels), i.e. covariancestreaming_covariance(predictions, predictions), i.e. variancestreaming_covariance(labels, labels), i.e. variance
The product-moment correlation ultimately returned is an idempotent operation
cov(predictions, labels) / sqrt(var(predictions) * var(labels)). To
facilitate correlation computation across multiple batches, the function
groups the update_ops of the underlying streaming_covariance and returns an
update_op.
If weights is not None, then it is used to compute a weighted correlation.
NOTE: these weights are treated as "frequency weights", as opposed to
"reliability weights". See discussion of the difference on
https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Weighted_arithmetic_mean#Weighted_sample_variance

Computes the cosine distance between the labels and predictions.
The streaming_mean_cosine_distance function creates two local variables,
total and count that are used to compute the average cosine distance
between predictions and labels. This average is weighted by weights,
and it is ultimately returned as mean_distance, which is an idempotent
operation that simply divides total by count.
For estimation of the metric over a stream of data, the function creates an

variables, true_positives, true_negatives, false_positives and
false_negatives that are used to compute the sensitivity at the given
specificity value. The threshold for the given specificity value is computed
and used to evaluate the corresponding sensitivity.
For estimation of the metric over a stream of data, the function creates an
update_op operation that updates these variables and returns the
sensitivity. update_op increments the true_positives, true_negatives,
false_positives and false_negatives counts with the weight of each case
found in the predictions and labels.
If weights is None, weights default to 1. Use weights of 0 to mask values.

streaming_sparse_average_precision_at_k creates two local variables,
average_precision_at_<k>/count and average_precision_at_<k>/total, that

labels calculate the true positives and false positives weighted by
weights. Then update_op increments true_positive_at_<k> and

tf.contrib.metrics.streaming_specificity_at_sensitivity(predictions, labels, sensitivity, weights=None, num_thresholds=200, metrics_collections=None, updates_collections=None, name=None)
Computes the the specificity at a given sensitivity.
The streaming_specificity_at_sensitivity function creates four local
variables, true_positives, true_negatives, false_positives and
false_negatives that are used to compute the specificity at the given
sensitivity value. The threshold for the given sensitivity value is computed

tf.contrib.metrics.streaming_concat(values, axis=0, max_size=None, metrics_collections=None, updates_collections=None, name=None)
Concatenate values along an axis across batches.
The function streaming_concat creates two local variables, array and
size, that are used to store concatenated values. Internally, array is
used as storage for a dynamic array (if maxsize is None), which ensures
that updates can be run in amortized constant time.
For estimation of the metric over a stream of data, the function creates an
update_op operation that appends the values of a tensor and returns the
value of the concatenated tensors.
This op allows for evaluating metrics that cannot be updated incrementally using the same framework as other streaming metrics.
Args:
values: tensor to concatenate. Rank and the shape along all axes other than the axis to concatenate along must be statically known.axis: optional integer axis to concatenate along.max_size: optional integer maximum size ofvaluealong the given axis. Once the maximum size is reached, further updates are no-ops. By default, there is no maximum size: the array is resized as necessary.metrics_collections: An optional list of collections thatvalueshould be added to.updates_collections: An optional list of collectionsupdate_opshould be added to.name: An optional variable_scope name.
Returns:
value: A tensor representing the concatenated values.update_op: An operation that concatenates the next values.

tf.contrib.metrics.auc_using_histogram(boolean_labels, scores, score_range, nbins=100, collections=None, check_shape=True, name=None)
AUC computed by maintaining histograms.
Rather than computing AUC directly, this Op maintains Variables containing
histograms of the scores associated with True and False labels. By
comparing these the AUC is generated, with some discretization error.
See: "Efficient AUC Learning Curve Calculation" by Bouckaert.
This AUC Op updates in O(batch_size + nbins) time and works well even with
large class imbalance. The accuracy is limited by discretization error due
to finite number of bins. If scores are concentrated in a fewer bins,
accuracy is lower. If this is a concern, we recommend trying different
numbers of bins and comparing results.
Args:
boolean_labels: 1-D booleanTensor. Entry isTrueif the corresponding record is in class.scores: 1-D numericTensor, same shape as boolean_labels.score_range:Tensorof shape[2], same dtype asscores. The min/max values of score that we expect. Scores outside range will be clipped.nbins: Integer number of bins to use. Accuracy strictly increases as the number of bins increases.collections: List of graph collections keys. Internal histogram Variables are added to these collections. Defaults to[GraphKeys.LOCAL_VARIABLES].check_shape: Boolean. IfTrue, do a runtime shape check on the scores and labels.name: A name for this Op. Defaults to "auc_using_histogram".

tf.contrib.metrics.confusion_matrix(predictions, labels, num_classes=None, dtype=tf.int32, name=None, weights=None)
Computes the confusion matrix from predictions and labels.
Calculate the Confusion Matrix for a pair of prediction and label 1-D int arrays.
Considering a prediction array such as: [1, 2, 3]
And a label array such as: [2, 2, 3]
The confusion matrix returned would be the following one:
[[0, 0, 0]
[0, 1, 0]
[0, 1, 0]
[0, 0, 1]]
If weights is not None, then the confusion matrix elements are the
corresponding weights elements.
Where the matrix rows represent the prediction labels and the columns represents the real labels. The confusion matrix is always a 2-D array of shape [n, n], where n is the number of valid labels for a given classification task. Both prediction and labels must be 1-D arrays of the same shape in order for this function to work.
Args:
predictions: A 1-D array representing the predictions for a givenclassification.labels: A 1-D representing the real labels for the classification task.num_classes: The possible number of labels the classification task canhave.

tf.contrib.metrics.aggregate_metric_map(names_to_tuples)
Aggregates the metric names to tuple dictionary.
This function is useful for pairing metric names with their associated value and update ops when the list of metrics is long. For example:
metrics_to_values, metrics_to_updates = slim.metrics.aggregate_metric_map({ 'Mean Absolute Error': new_slim.metrics.streaming_mean_absolute_error( predictions, labels, weights), 'Mean Relative Error': new_slim.metrics.streaming_mean_relative_error( predictions, labels, labels, weights), 'RMSE Linear': new_slim.metrics.streaming_root_mean_squared_error( predictions, labels, weights), 'RMSE Log': new_slim.metrics.streaming_root_mean_squared_error( predictions, labels, weights), })
