Extended Data Tab. 2. Overview of pitfall sources for semantic segmentation metrics.

((a): overlap-based metrics, (b): boundary-based metrics) related to poor metric selection [P2]. A warning sign indicates a potential pitfall for the metric in the corresponding column, in case the property represented by the respective row holds true.

Note that we only list sources of pitfalls relevant to the considered metrics. Other sources of pitfalls are neglected for this table.
