Notes. Notice how when the confidence threshold decreases the mAP increases but so too does the true negative and positive rate. The challenge is to find a balance between metrics for optimised performance in terms of accuracy.

Current usage metrics show cumulative count of Article Views (full-text article views including HTML views, PDF and ePub downloads, according to the available data) and Abstracts Views on Vision4Press platform.

Data correspond to usage on the plateform after 2015. The current usage metrics is available 48-96 hours after online publication and is updated daily on week days.

Initial download of the metrics may take a while.
