Metric
BinaryCohenKappafromtorchmetrics(torchmetrics.classification.BinaryCohenKappa)
When to invoke this skill
The user has predictions + ground truth and asks to evaluate with BinaryCohenKappa, or
mentions torchmetrics.classification.BinaryCohenKappa directly, or wants the standard torchmetrics implementation.
Reference signature
from torchmetrics.classification import BinaryCohenKappa
# BinaryCohenKappa(threshold: float = 0.5, ignore_index: Optional[int] = None, weights: Optional[Literal['linear', 'quadratic', 'none']] = None, validate_args: bool = True, **kwargs: Any) -> None
Library docstring
Calculate `Cohen's kappa score`_ that measures inter-annotator agreement for binary tasks.
.. math::
\kappa = (p_o - p_e) / (1 - p_e)
where :math:`p_o` is the empirical probability of agreement and :math:`p_e` is
the expected agreement when both annotators assign labels randomly. Note that
:math:`p_e` is estimated using a per-annotator empirical prior over the
class labels.
As input to ``forward`` and ``update`` the metric accepts the following input:
- ``preds`` (:class:`~torch.Tensor`): A int or float tensor of shape ``(N, ...)``. If preds is a floating point
tensor with values outside [0,1] range we consider the input to be logits and will auto apply sigmoid per element.
Additionally, we convert to int tensor with thresholding using the value in ``threshold``.
- ``target`` (:class:`~torch.Tensor`): An int tensor of shape ``(N, ...)``.
.. tip::
Additional dimension ``...`` will be flattened into the batch dimension.
As output to ``forward`` and ``compute`` the metric returns the following output:
- ``bc_kappa`` (:class:`~torch.Tensor`): A tensor containing cohen kappa score
Args:
threshold: Threshold for transforming probability to binary (0,1) predictions
ignore_index:
Specifies a target value that is ignored and does not contribute to the metric calculation
weights: Weighting type to calculate the score. Choose from:
- ``None`` or ``'none'``: no weighting
- ``'linear'``: linear weighting
- ``'quadratic'``: quadratic weighting
validate_args: bool indicating if input arguments and tensors should be validated for correctness.
Set to ``False`` for faster computations.
kwargs: Additional keyword arguments, see :ref:`Metric kwargs` for more info.
Example (preds is int tensor):
>>> from torch import tensor
>>> from torchmetrics.classification import BinaryCohenKappa
>>> target = tensor([1, 1, 0, 0])
>>> preds = tensor([0, 1, 0, 0])
>>> metric = BinaryCohenKappa()
>>> metric(preds, target)
tensor(0.5000)
Example (preds is float tensor):
>>> from torchmetrics.classification import BinaryCohenKappa
>>> target = tensor([1, 1, 0, 0])
>>> preds = ten
Quick recipe
import torchmetrics.classification as _m
score = _m.BinaryCohenKappa(y_true, y_pred)
Don'ts
- Don't reimplement when the library version handles edge cases (NaN, ties, empty inputs) better than a hand-rolled formula.
- Always check the library version's argument order — sklearn is
(y_true, y_pred)while torchmetrics is(preds, target).
