Evaluating Performance in continuous context recognition using event-driven error characterisation
Jamie A. Ward, Paul Lukowicz and Gerhard Troester, LoCA 2006 (draft copy) bib
[Details the categorisation of Overfill, Underfill, Fragmenting and Merge errors in addition to the more well known Insertion, Deletion and Substitution errors. It tackles the problems of evaluating both discrete event recognition and continuous timeseries. A method of collecting these results, the Segment Error Table, SET, is also proposed as a more in-depth variant to the common confusion matrix (More details on these methods and their usage can also be found in the later chapters of my thesis.)] [Download MATLAB scripts here][Updated python implementation by Peter Hevesi: github.com/phev8/ward-metrics]

These error types are visualised in a stacked barchart (which was later given a name, Error Description Diagram (EDD) by Tracy Westyn of Gatech .)]
