Evaluation Metrics

This table describes the evaluation metrics used in the DETRAC-tracking benchmark.

Measurement Better Perfect Description
PR-MOTA higher 100% Multiple Object Tracking Accuracy along the PR curve. This measure combines three error sources: false positives, missed targets and identity switches.
PR-MOTP higher 100% Multiple Object Tracking Precision along the PR curve. The misalignment between the annotated and the predicted bounding boxes.
PR-MT higher 100% Mostly tracked targets along the PR curve. The ratio of ground-truth trajectories that are covered by a track hypothesis for at least 80% of their respective life span.
PR-ML lower 0% Mostly lost targets along the PR curve. The ratio of ground-truth trajectories that are covered by a track hypothesis for at most 20% of their respective life span.
PR-IDS lower 0 The total number of identity switches along the PR curve.
PR-FRAG lower 0 The total number of times a trajectory is fragmented (i.e. interrupted during tracking) along the PR curve.
PR-FP lower 0 The total number of false positives along the PR curve.
PR-FN lower 0 The total number of false negatives (missed targets) along the PR curve.
