Python实现mAP算法:精准评估目标检测模型性能

引言

一、mAP算法概述

mAP(Mean Average Precision)是目标检测领域中常用的评价指标,它综合了精确率(Precision)和召回率(Recall)两个指标,能够全面评估模型的检测性能。

  1. 精确率(Precision):表示模型预测为正样本的样本中,真正为正样本的比例。
  2. 召回率(Recall):表示所有正样本中,模型正确预测为正样本的比例。

mAP的计算过程通常包括以下几个步骤:

    计算每个类别的AP(Average Precision)

    • 对检测框按照置信度从高到低排序。
    • 计算不同置信度阈值下的精确率和召回率。
    • 绘制PR(Precision-Recall)曲线,计算曲线下的面积即为AP。

    计算所有类别的AP的平均值,即为mAP。

二、Python实现mAP算法

下面我们将通过Python代码实现mAP算法,代码主要包括数据预处理、计算精确率和召回率、绘制PR曲线以及计算mAP等步骤。

1. 数据预处理

首先,我们需要准备真实框(ground truth bounding boxes)和预测框(predicted bounding boxes)的数据。假设数据格式如下:

ground_truth = [
    {'image_id': 1, 'class_id': 0, 'bbox': [x1, y1, x2, y2]},
    {'image_id': 1, 'class_id': 1, 'bbox': [x1, y1, x2, y2]},
    ...
]

predictions = [
    {'image_id': 1, 'class_id': 0, 'bbox': [x1, y1, x2, y2], 'confidence': 0.9},
    {'image_id': 1, 'class_id': 1, 'bbox': [x1, y1, x2, y2], 'confidence': 0.8},
    ...
]
2. 计算精确率和召回率

我们需要计算每个类别的精确率和召回率。首先定义一些辅助函数:

import numpy as np

def calculate_iou(box1, box2):
    x1, y1, x2, y2 = box1
    x1_p, y1_p, x2_p, y2_p = box2

    xi1 = max(x1, x1_p)
    yi1 = max(y1, y1_p)
    xi2 = min(x2, x2_p)
    yi2 = min(y2, y2_p)

    inter_area = max(xi2 - xi1, 0) * max(yi2 - yi1, 0)

    box1_area = (x2 - x1) * (y2 - y1)
    box2_area = (x2_p - x1_p) * (y2_p - y1_p)

    union_area = box1_area + box2_area - inter_area

    iou = inter_area / union_area
    return iou

def calculate_precision_recall(ground_truth, predictions, iou_threshold=0.5):
    true_positives = []
    false_positives = []
    false_negatives = []

    for pred in predictions:
        image_id = pred['image_id']
        class_id = pred['class_id']
        bbox = pred['bbox']
        confidence = pred['confidence']

        matched = False
        for gt in ground_truth:
            if (gt['image_id'] == image_id and gt['class_id'] == class_id and
                    calculate_iou(gt['bbox'], bbox) >= iou_threshold):
                matched = True
                break

        if matched:
            true_positives.append(confidence)
        else:
            false_positives.append(confidence)

    for gt in ground_truth:
        image_id = gt['image_id']
        class_id = gt['class_id']
        bbox = gt['bbox']

        matched = False
        for pred in predictions:
            if (pred['image_id'] == image_id and pred['class_id'] == class_id and
                    calculate_iou(gt['bbox'], pred['bbox']) >= iou_threshold):
                matched = True
                break

        if not matched:
            false_negatives.append(gt)

    true_positives.sort(reverse=True)
    false_positives.sort(reverse=True)

    precision = []
    recall = []
    tp = 0
    fp = 0
    fn = len(false_negatives)

    for tp_val in true_positives:
        tp += 1
        precision.append(tp / (tp + fp))
        recall.append(tp / (tp + fn))

    for fp_val in false_positives:
        fp += 1
        precision.append(tp / (tp + fp))
        recall.append(tp / (tp + fn))

    return precision, recall
3. 计算AP和mAP
def calculate_ap(precision, recall):
    mrec = np.concatenate(([0.], recall, [1.]))
    mpre = np.concatenate(([0.], precision, [0.]))

    for i in range(len(mpre) - 2, -1, -1):
        mpre[i] = max(mpre[i], mpre[i + 1])

    i = np.where(mrec[1:] != mrec[:-1])[0]
    ap = np.sum((mrec[i + 1] - mrec[i]) * mpre[i + 1])
    return ap

def calculate_map(ground_truth, predictions, iou_threshold=0.5):
    class_ids = set([gt['class_id'] for gt in ground_truth])
    map_score = 0.0

    for class_id in class_ids:
        gt_class = [gt for gt in ground_truth if gt['class_id'] == class_id]
        pred_class = [pred for pred in predictions if pred['class_id'] == class_id]

        precision, recall = calculate_precision_recall(gt_class, pred_class, iou_threshold)
        ap = calculate_ap(precision, recall)
        map_score += ap

    map_score /= len(class_ids)
    return map_score

# Example usage
map_score = calculate_map(ground_truth, predictions)
print(f"mAP score: {map_score}")
