IOU Similarity Operator

Computes intersection-over-union (IOU) between two box lists. Box list ‘X’ should be a LoDTensor and ‘Y’ is a common Tensor, boxes in ‘Y’ are shared by all instance of the batched inputs of X. Given two boxes A and B, the calculation of IOU is as follows:

$$ IOU(A, B) = \frac{area(A\cap B)}{area(A)+area(B)-area(A\cap B)} $$

Parameters
  • x (Variable) – (LoDTensor, default LoDTensor<float>) Box list X is a 2-D LoDTensor with shape [N, 4] holds N boxes, each box is represented as [xmin, ymin, xmax, ymax], the shape of X is [N, 4]. [xmin, ymin] is the left top coordinate of the box if the input is image feature map, they are close to the origin of the coordinate system. [xmax, ymax] is the right bottom coordinate of the box. This tensor can contain LoD information to represent a batch of inputs. One instance of this batch can contain different numbers of entities.The data type is float32 or float64.

  • y (Variable) – (Tensor, default Tensor<float>) Box list Y holds M boxes, each box is represented as [xmin, ymin, xmax, ymax], the shape of X is [N, 4]. [xmin, ymin] is the left top coordinate of the box if the input is image feature map, and [xmax, ymax] is the right bottom coordinate of the box.The data type is float32 or float64.

  • box_normalized (bool) – Whether treat the priorbox as a normalized box. Set true by default.

Returns

(LoDTensor, the lod is same as input X) The output of iou_similarity op, a tensor with shape [N, M] representing pairwise iou scores.The data type is same with x.

Return type

Variable
