Specificity¶
Module Interface¶
- class torchmetrics.Specificity(num_classes=None, threshold=0.5, average='micro', mdmc_average=None, ignore_index=None, top_k=None, multiclass=None, **kwargs)[source]
Computes Specificity:
Where and represent the number of true negatives and false positives respecitively. With the use of
top_k
parameter, this metric can generalize to Specificity@K.The reduction method (how the specificity scores are aggregated) is controlled by the
average
parameter, and additionally by themdmc_average
parameter in the multi-dimensional multi-class case. Accepts all inputs listed in Input types.- Parameters
num_classes¶ (
Optional
[int
]) – Number of classes. Necessary for'macro'
,'weighted'
andNone
average methods.threshold¶ (
float
) – Threshold probability value for transforming probability predictions to binary (0,1) predictions, in the case of binary or multi-label inputs.Defines the reduction that is applied. Should be one of the following:
'micro'
[default]: Calculate the metric globally, across all samples and classes.'macro'
: Calculate the metric for each class separately, and average the metrics across classes (with equal weights for each class).'weighted'
: Calculate the metric for each class separately, and average the metrics across classes, weighting each class by its support (tn + fp
).'none'
orNone
: Calculate the metric for each class separately, and return the metric for every class.'samples'
: Calculate the metric for each sample, and average the metrics across samples (with equal weights for each sample).
Note
What is considered a sample in the multi-dimensional multi-class case depends on the value of
mdmc_average
.mdmc_average¶ (
Optional
[str
]) –Defines how averaging is done for multi-dimensional multi-class inputs (on top of the
average
parameter). Should be one of the following:None
[default]: Should be left unchanged if your data is not multi-dimensional multi-class.'samplewise'
: In this case, the statistics are computed separately for each sample on theN
axis, and then averaged over samples. The computation for each sample is done by treating the flattened extra axes...
(see Input types) as theN
dimension within the sample, and computing the metric for the sample based on that.'global'
: In this case theN
and...
dimensions of the inputs (see Input types) are flattened into a newN_X
sample axis, i.e. the inputs are treated as if they were(N_X, C)
. From here on theaverage
parameter applies as usual.
ignore_index¶ (
Optional
[int
]) – Integer specifying a target class to ignore. If given, this class index does not contribute to the returned score, regardless of reduction method. If an index is ignored, andaverage=None
or'none'
, the score for the ignored class will be returned asnan
.Number of the highest probability entries for each sample to convert to 1s - relevant only for inputs with probability predictions. If this parameter is set for multi-label inputs, it will take precedence over
threshold
. For (multi-dim) multi-class inputs, this parameter defaults to 1.Should be left unset (
None
) for inputs with label predictions.multiclass¶ (
Optional
[bool
]) – Used only in certain special cases, where you want to treat inputs as a different type than what they appear to be. See the parameter’s documentation section for a more detailed explanation and examples.kwargs¶ (
Any
) – Additional keyword arguments, see Advanced metric settings for more info.

Example
>>> from torchmetrics import Specificity >>> preds = torch.tensor([2, 0, 2, 1]) >>> target = torch.tensor([1, 1, 2, 0]) >>> specificity = Specificity(average='macro', num_classes=3) >>> specificity(preds, target) tensor(0.6111) >>> specificity = Specificity(average='micro') >>> specificity(preds, target) tensor(0.6250)
Initializes internal Module state, shared by both nn.Module and ScriptModule.
- compute()[source]
Computes the specificity score based on inputs passed in to
update
previously.- Returns
If
average in ['micro', 'macro', 'weighted', 'samples']
, a one-element tensor will be returnedIf
average in ['none', None]
, the shape will be(C,)
, whereC
stands for the number of classes
- Return type
The shape of the returned tensor depends on the
average
parameter
