With the help of this package, it is simple to calculate the prdc score on your custom datasets. Additionally, it supports the R64, R4096, and T4096 scoring systems from the original study. By just including a directory path in the options, you may easily execute it on custom datasets. See the illustration below.
The requirements are necessary because dataloaders are written in pytorch and models are downloaded from torchvision.
pip3 install prdc_cliCLI: Test between two directories orignal and a fake one
prdc_cli --real-dir '/path/real' --fake_dir '/path/fake' --type 'R' --device 'cuda' --k 5

Devising indicative evaluation metrics for the image generation task remains an open problem. The most widely used metric for measuring the similarity between real and generated images has been the Fréchet Inception Distance (FID) score. Because it does not differentiate the fidelity and diversity aspects of the generated images, recent papers have introduced variants of precision and recall metrics to diagnose those properties separately. In this paper, we show that even the latest version of the precision and recall (Kynkäänniemi et al., 2019) metrics are not reliable yet. For example, they fail to detect the match between two identical distributions, they are not robust against outliers, and the evaluation hyperparameters are selected arbitrarily. We propose density and coverage metrics that solve the above issues. We analytically and experimentally show that density and coverage provide more interpretable and reliable signals for practitioners than the existing metrics.

Precision and recall are defined below:
where the manifold is the defined as
is the ball around the point
x with radius r.
is the distance to the kth-nearest neighbour.
Density and coverage are defined below:
Precision versus Density. Because of the real outlier sample, the manifold is overestimated. Generating many fake samples around the real outlier is enough to increase the precision measure. The problem of overestimating precision (100%) is resolved using the density estimate (60%).
Recall versus Coverage. The real and fake samples are identical across left and right. Since models often generate many unrealistic yet diverse samples, the fake manifold is often an overestimation of the true fake distribution. In the figure above, while the fake samples are generally far from the modes in real samples, the recall measure is rewarded by the fact that real samples are contained in the overestimated fake manifold.
Test 10000 real and fake samples form the standard normal distribution N(0,I) in 1000-dimensional Euclidean space.
Set the nearest neighbour k=5. We compute precision, recall, density, and coverage estimates below.
import numpy as np
from prdc import compute_prdc
num_real_samples = num_fake_samples = 10000
feature_dim = 1000
nearest_k = 5
real_features = np.random.normal(loc=0.0, scale=1.0,
size=[num_real_samples, feature_dim])
fake_features = np.random.normal(loc=0.0, scale=1.0,
size=[num_fake_samples, feature_dim])
metrics = compute_prdc(real_features=real_features,
fake_features=fake_features,
nearest_k=nearest_k)
print(metrics)Above test code will result in the following estimates (may fluctuate due to randomness).
