This value is somewhere between 0.0 and 1.0, with 1.0 being a perfect match with the ground truth.</p> <p>But is a score of 0.9 good? What about 0.8, or 0.7? What if the <strong>kind</strong> of error being made impacts tasks being performed later in the pipeline? These questions are not something the mAP and its underlying metrics, the F1 and IoU (Intersection over Union), are able to answer. And start pointing to the more fundemental question &ldquo;<strong>What does good mean?</strong>&rdquo;.</p>
