Lab: Compare Localization Overlap
Mission
Run the local Localization Overlap Lab. Compare tight, shifted or under-segmented, and oversized predictions for both boxes and masks. Export a Localization Evidence Record.
Guided start
- Select
Bounding boxandShifted / under. - Run the measurement.
- Preserve intersection 12, predicted area 16, target area 16, union 20, and IoU 0.600.
- Switch only the prediction to
Oversizedand rerun. - Explain why covering the whole target still produces a lower score.
Procedure
- Run all three bounding-box predictions.
- Record every intersection, area, union, and IoU.
- Switch to segmentation masks and run all three cases.
- Compare an under-segmented mask with an oversized mask.
- Preserve your first localization claim and write a bounded correction.
- Complete Observation, Measurement, Decision, and Limitation.
- Export the record and confirm it names
ai-for-beginners-localization-overlap-lab.
Success criteria and boundary
- at least three IoU values are independently reproducible;
- box and mask output types remain distinct;
- shifted, missed, and extra regions are named accurately;
- the corrected claim follows only supplied geometric evidence; and
- the limitation rejects unsupported claims about class, annotation quality, safety, fairness, or other images.
Use only supplied fictional annotations. The Lab activates no camera, identifies no person, and supports no surveillance or safety decision.

Localization Overlap Lab
Measure bounding-box and segmentation-mask overlap and separate geometric evidence from broader vision claims.
Help and boundaries
A deterministic browser simulation uses supplied areas and annotations and contacts no model or service.
No personal data, private prompts, or API keys. This Lab makes no hidden remote writes and does not persist your work after the page session.
No result activates a camera, identifies a person, or supports a safety decision.
Lab draft is active for this page session only.
Objectives
- Calculate intersection over union.
- Compare shifted, oversized, and tight localization outputs.
- Bound conclusions to supplied geometry and annotations.
Procedure
Workbench
Measure overlap before calling localization correct.
Choose one supplied prediction and measure its overlap with the fixed target.
Boundary: IoU measures geometric overlap for supplied annotations. It does not establish correct class, annotation quality, safety, fairness, or performance on other images.
Text and static fallback
Every area, intersection, union, IoU, case, and boundary appears in accessible text and tables.
Shifted box IoU 0.600; oversized box 0.444; under-segmented mask 0.500.
Evidence record
Record only the evidence requested. Do not enter names, personal information, private prompts, or credentials. This draft stays in memory only unless you explicitly export it.
Success criteria
- The output type and target area are explicit.
- Three IoU calculations preserve every operand.
- The revision follows geometric evidence only.
- The limitation rejects unsupported broader claims.
Complete every procedure step and required evidence field before export.
Vocabulary lab
Flip the idea, not just the card
Explain the term before you reveal the back. Then compare your explanation with the definition, example, and warning.
Read all terms without animation
- intersection
- The region shared by predicted and target localization outputs. Example: The shifted boxes share twelve square units. Do not confuse it with: Intersection alone ignores extra predicted area.
- union
- Every region covered by either the prediction or target, counted once. Example: Sixteen plus sixteen minus twelve equals twenty. Do not confuse it with: It is not the simple sum because overlap would be counted twice.
- false-positive region
- Predicted area outside the reference target. Example: Background included by an oversized mask. Do not confuse it with: It differs from a wrong image-level class claim.
- false-negative region
- Reference target area missing from the prediction. Example: Pixels omitted by an under-segmented mask. Do not confuse it with: It is missing target coverage, not extra coverage.
- Localization Evidence Record
- An artifact preserving output type, areas, IoU, claim repair, and limitations. Example: The Lab export. Do not confuse it with: It is not proof of general vision-system readiness.
