Evaluating Object Detection Performance

# Evaluating Object Detection Performance: Mean Average Precision (mAP) Imagine you've built an object detection model to identify cars in traffic footage. It seems to be working well, but how do you *really* know? Are the detections accurate? How confident can you be in its performance? The answer lies in rigorous evaluation, and one of the most widely used metrics is **Mean Average Precision (mAP)**. This article serves as your comprehensive guide to understanding and implementing mAP for ev
