Understanding the Metrics
Image Metrics
Computing image metrics like brightness, sharpness, and noise during inference at regular intervals is crucial for several reasons:
Quality Assurance: Ensures the input images maintain a consistent quality, which is essential for accurate model predictions.
Adaptive Processing: Allows for dynamic adjustments in image preprocessing, enhancing the model's performance in varying conditions.
Anomaly Detection: Identifies anomalies or degradations in image quality that could affect the reliability of the inference results.
Performance Monitoring: Tracks the operational environment, helping to diagnose issues related to image capture or transmission that may impact the overall system performance.
Early Bug Detection: Identifies issues with image quality early, allowing for quicker isolation of the root cause.
Sampling Metrics
Improves Model Performance: Identifies and focuses on the most challenging images, enhancing model accuracy by learning from its mistakes.
Efficient Resource Use: Prioritizes labeling and processing resources on images where the model is least confident, maximizing the value of additional data.
Dynamic Adaptation: Helps the model adapt to changing data distributions over time, maintaining its effectiveness and robustness in real-world applications.
Model Metrics
Performance Monitoring: Ensures the model is running efficiently and meets real-time processing requirements by tracking inference times.
Model Health: Identifies any potential issues or degradations in performance over time, allowing for proactive maintenance and optimization.
Bias Detection: Reveals any biases in class predictions, helping to ensure the model is making balanced and fair predictions across all classes.
Resource Management: Optimizes computational resource allocation by understanding the model's workload and prediction patterns.
