Model evaluation#

After you’ve trained several models, you may want to generate some accuracy metrics to compare between them. This notebook demonstrates how you’ll do that given a trained model.

Let’s start by installing SLEAP and downloading the trained model.

!pip uninstall -qqq -y opencv-python opencv-contrib-python
!pip install -qqq "sleap[pypi]>=1.3.3"
!apt -qq install tree
!wget -q https://storage.googleapis.com/sleap-data/reference/flies13/td_fast.210505_012601.centered_instance.n%3D1800.zip
!unzip -qq -o -d "td_fast.210505_012601.centered_instance.n=1800" "td_fast.210505_012601.centered_instance.n=1800.zip"

E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend - open (13: Permission denied)
E: Unable to acquire the dpkg frontend lock (/var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend), are you root?

A trained SLEAP model will be a folder containing files that specify metadata that is useful for evaluation and analysis. The exact set of files may depend on the configuration, but all models will come with:

  • metrics.train.npz: Metrics for the training split.

  • metrics.val.npz: Metrics for the validation split. This is what you’ll want to use most of the time since it wasn’t directly used for optimizing the model.

Note: A test split will also be evaluated if it was provided during training and saved to metrics.test.npz.

!tree td_fast.210505_012601.centered_instance.n=1800

Additionally, the following files are included and may also be useful:

  • best_model.h5: The actual saved model and weights. This can be loaded with tf.keras.model.load_model() but it is recommended to use sleap.load_model() instead as it takes care of adding some additional inference-only procedures.

  • training_config.json: The configuration for the model training job, including metadata inferred during the training procedure. It can be loaded with sleap.load_config().

  • labels_gt.train.slp and labels_pr.train.slp: These are SLEAP labels files containing the ground truth and predicted points for the training split. They do not contain the images, but can be used to retrieve the poses used.

  • labels_gt.val.slp and labels_pr.val.slp: These are SLEAP labels files containing the ground truth and predicted points for the validation split. They do not contain the images, but can be used to retrieve the poses used.

To start, let’s look at the summary of the localization errors:

print("Error distance (50%):", metrics["dist.p50"])
print("Error distance (90%):", metrics["dist.p90"])
print("Error distance (95%):", metrics["dist.p95"])

Error distance (50%): 0.9010142093245521
Error distance (90%): 2.0545800141197903
Error distance (95%): 3.0166608700891056

These are the percentiles of the distribution of how far off the model was from the ground truth location.

We can visualize the entire distribution like this:

plt.figure(figsize=(6, 3), dpi=150, facecolor="w")
sns.histplot(metrics["dist.dists"].flatten(), binrange=(0, 20), kde=True, kde_kws={"clip": (0, 20)}, stat="probability")
plt.xlabel("Localization error (px)");
../_images/Model_evaluation_14_0.png

This metric is intuitive, but it does not incorporate other sources of error like those stemming from poor instance detection and grouping, or missing points.

The Object Keypoint Similarity (OKS) is a more holistic metric that takes factors such as landmark visibility, animal size, and the difficulty in locating keypoints (all are assumed to be “easy” for our calculations). You can read more about this and other pose estimation metrics in: https://arxiv.org/abs/1707.05388

First let’s plot the distribution of OKS scores:

plt.figure(figsize=(6, 3), dpi=150, facecolor="w")
sns.histplot(metrics["oks_voc.match_scores"].flatten(), binrange=(0, 1), kde=True, kde_kws={"clip": (0, 1)}, stat="probability")
plt.xlabel("Object Keypoint Similarity");
../_images/Model_evaluation_16_0.png

Since these range from 0 to 1, it seems like we’re doing pretty well!

Another way to summarize this is through precision-recall curves, which evaluate how well the model does at different thresholds of OKS scores. The higher the threshold, the more stringent our criteria for classifying a prediction as correct.

Here we plot this at different thresholds:

plt.figure(figsize=(4, 4), dpi=150, facecolor="w")
for precision, thresh in zip(metrics["oks_voc.precisions"][::2], metrics["oks_voc.match_score_thresholds"][::2]):
    plt.plot(metrics["oks_voc.recall_thresholds"], precision, "-", label=f"OKS @ {thresh:.2f}")
plt.xlabel("Recall")
plt.ylabel("Precision")
plt.legend(loc="lower left");
../_images/Model_evaluation_18_0.png

An easy way to summarize this analysis is to take the average over all of these thresholds to compute the mean Average Precision (mAP) and mean Average Recall (mAR) which are widely used in the pose estimation literature.

Here are those values saved out:

print("mAP:", metrics["oks_voc.mAP"])
print("mAR:", metrics["oks_voc.mAR"])

mAP: 0.8150621709973537
mAR: 0.8885

Great, but what if we have some new labels or want to evaluate the model with an updated set of labels for better comparisons with newer models?

For this, we’ll need to generate new predictions.

First, let’s download a new SLEAP labels package file (.pkg.slp). This is important since it denotes that the labels contain the images as well which we need for predicting.

!wget -q https://storage.googleapis.com/sleap-data/datasets/wt_gold.13pt/tracking_split2/test.pkg.slp

Next we can simply load the model, the ground truth (GT) labels, and generate the predictions (~1 min on CPU):

predictor = sleap.load_model("td_fast.210505_012601.centered_instance.n=1800")
labels_gt = sleap.load_file("test.pkg.slp")
labels_pr = predictor.predict(labels_gt)
