An Error Metric for Binary Images
@inproceedings{Baddeley1992AnEM, title={An Error Metric for Binary Images}, author={Adrian J. Baddeley}, year={1992} }
The discrepancy between two binary images is traditionally measured by either thèstatistical' misclassiication error rate, or by Pratt's 1] Figure Of Merit. We discuss weaknesses of these measures, and introduce an improved metric which has both a theoretical basis 2] and intuitive appeal. The error measures are compared on artiicial data and on the standard chessboard test for edge detectors.

Errors in Binary Images and an L P Version of the Hausdorr Metric
- Computer Science, Mathematics
- 1992
A metric is introduced which is an L p modiication of the Hausdorr metric, which generates the myopic topology yet has many features in common with L p metrics, including better robustness against noise.

A New Normalized Supervised Edge Detection Evaluation
- Computer ScienceIbPRIA
- 2017
In this paper, several referenced-based boundary detection evaluations are detailed, pointing their advantages and disadvantages through concrete examples of edge images, and a new supervised edge map quality measure is proposed, comparing a ground truth contour image, the candidate contours image and their associated spacial nearness.
Towards an objective edge detection algorithm based on discrete t-norms
- Computer Science
- 2011
A comparative analysis of different techniques in order to transform a gray-scale edge image to a thin binary edge image is performed according to some performance measures, such as Pratt's figure of merit, Baddeley's measure and the ρ-coefficient.
Loss Functions for Bayesian Image Analysis
- Computer Science

The role of loss functions in Bayesian image classification, object recognition and identification is discussed, and the use of a particular loss function which produces visually attractive estimates is reviewed.
New discrepancy measures for segmentation evaluation
- MathematicsProceedings 2003 International Conference on Image Processing (Cat. No.03CH37429)
- 2003
New evaluation measures for scene segmentation results are proposed, which are based on computing the difference between a region extracted from a segmentation map and the corresponding one on an ideal segmentation.

In this comment, the authors show that although Canny's derivation was in error, the final form of his criterion is adequate and can, in fact, be derived from Tagare and deFigueiredo's formulation of the problem.
