Overcoming Common Flaws in the Evaluation of Selective Classification Systems

Jeremias Traub, Till J. Bungert, Carsten T. Lüth, Michael Baumgartner, Klaus Maier-Hein, Lena Maier-hein +1

NeurIPS 2024spotlight

Selective Classification, wherein models can reject low-confidence predictions, promises reliable translation of machine-learning based classification systems to real-world scenarios such as clinical diagnostics. While current evaluation of these systems typically assumes fixed working points based…

The HCI Stereo Metrics: Geometry-Aware Performance Analysis of Stereo Algorithms

Katrin Honauer, Lena Maier-Hein, Daniel Kondermann

ICCV 2015poster

Performance characterization of stereo methods is mandatory to decide which algorithm is useful for which application. Prevalent benchmarks mainly use the root mean squared error (RMS) with respect to ground truth disparity maps to quantify algorithm performance. We show that the RMS is of limited…
