## What is TorchMetrics

TorchMetrics is a collection of 100+ PyTorch metrics implementations and an easy-to-use API to create custom metrics. It offers:

- A standardized interface to increase reproducibility
- Reduces boilerplate
- Automatic accumulation over batches
- Metrics optimized for distributed-training
- Automatic synchronization between multiple devices

You can use TorchMetrics with any PyTorch model or with [PyTorch Lightning](https://lightning.ai/docs/pytorch/stable/) to enjoy additional features such as:

- Module metrics are automatically placed on the correct device.
- Native support for logging metrics in Lightning to reduce even more boilerplate.

## Using TorchMetrics

### Module metrics

The [module-based metrics](https://lightning.ai/docs/torchmetrics/stable/references/metric.html) contain internal metric states (similar to the parameters of the PyTorch module) that automate accumulation and synchronization across devices!

- Automatic accumulation over multiple batches
- Automatic synchronization between multiple devices
- Metric arithmetic

**This can be run on CPU, single GPU or multi-GPUs!**

For the single GPU/CPU case:

```python
import torch

# import our library
import torchmetrics

# initialize metric
metric = torchmetrics.classification.Accuracy(task="multiclass", num_classes=5)

# move the metric to device you want computations to take place
device = "cuda" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu"
metric.to(device)

n_batches = 10
for i in range(n_batches):
    # simulate a classification problem
    preds = torch.randn(10, 5).softmax(dim=-1).to(device)
    target = torch.randint(5, (10,)).to(device)

    # metric on current batch
    acc = metric(preds, target)
    print(f"Accuracy on batch {i}: {acc}")

# metric on all batches using custom accumulation
acc = metric.compute()
print(f"Accuracy on all data: {acc}")
```

Module metric usage remains the same when using multiple GPUs or multiple nodes.

  <summary>Example using DDP</summary>

<!--phmdoctest-mark.skip-->

```python
import os
import torch
import torch.distributed as dist
import torch.multiprocessing as mp
from torch import nn
from torch.nn.parallel import DistributedDataParallel as DDP
import torchmetrics


def metric_ddp(rank, world_size):
    os.environ["MASTER_ADDR"] = "localhost"
    os.environ["MASTER_PORT"] = "12355"

    # create default process group
    dist.init_process_group("gloo", rank=rank, world_size=world_size)

    # initialize model
    metric = torchmetrics.classification.Accuracy(task="multiclass", num_classes=5)

    # define a model and append your metric to it
    # this allows metric states to be placed on correct accelerators when
    # .to(device) is called on the model
    model = nn.Linear(10, 10)
    model.metric = metric
    model = model.to(rank)

    # initialize DDP
    model = DDP(model, device_ids=[rank])

    n_epochs = 5
    # this shows iteration over multiple training epochs
    for n in range(n_epochs):
        # this will be replaced by a DataLoader with a DistributedSampler
        n_batches = 10
        for i in range(n_batches):
            # simulate a classification problem
            preds = torch.randn(10, 5).softmax(dim=-1)
            target = torch.randint(5, (10,))

            # metric on current batch
            acc = metric(preds, target)
            if rank == 0:  # print only for rank 0
                print(f"Accuracy on batch {i}: {acc}")

        # metric on all batches and all accelerators using custom accumulation
        # accuracy is same across both accelerators
        acc = metric.compute()
        print(f"Accuracy on all data: {acc}, accelerator rank: {rank}")

        # Resetting internal state such that metric ready for new data
        metric.reset()

    # cleanup
    dist.destroy_process_group()


if __name__ == "__main__":
    world_size = 2  # number of gpus to parallelize over
    mp.spawn(metric_ddp, args=(world_size,), nprocs=world_size, join=True)
```

### Implementing your own Module metric

Implementing your own metric is as easy as subclassing an [`torch.nn.Module`](https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/generated/torch.nn.Module.html). Simply, subclass `torchmetrics.Metric`
and just implement the `update` and `compute` methods:

```python
import torch
from torchmetrics import Metric


class MyAccuracy(Metric):
    def __init__(self):
        # remember to call super
        super().__init__()
        # call `self.add_state`for every internal state that is needed for the metrics computations
        # dist_reduce_fx indicates the function that should be used to reduce
        # state from multiple processes
        self.add_state("correct", default=torch.tensor(0), dist_reduce_fx="sum")
        self.add_state("total", default=torch.tensor(0), dist_reduce_fx="sum")

    def update(self, preds: torch.Tensor, target: torch.Tensor) -> None:
        # extract predicted class index for computing accuracy
        preds = preds.argmax(dim=-1)
        assert preds.shape == target.shape
        # update metric states
        self.correct += torch.sum(preds == target)
        self.total += target.numel()

    def compute(self) -> torch.Tensor:
        # compute final result
        return self.correct.float() / self.total


my_metric = MyAccuracy()
preds = torch.randn(10, 5).softmax(dim=-1)
target = torch.randint(5, (10,))

print(my_metric(preds, target))
```

### Functional metrics

Similar to [`torch.nn`](https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/nn.html), most metrics have both a [module-based](https://lightning.ai/docs/torchmetrics/stable/references/metric.html) and functional version.
The functional versions are simple python functions that as input take [torch.tensors](https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/tensors.html) and return the corresponding metric as a [torch.tensor](https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/tensors.html).

```python
import torch

# import our library
import torchmetrics

# simulate a classification problem
preds = torch.randn(10, 5).softmax(dim=-1)
target = torch.randint(5, (10,))

acc = torchmetrics.functional.classification.multiclass_accuracy(
    preds, target, num_classes=5
)
```

### Covered domains and example metrics

In total TorchMetrics contains [100+ metrics](https://lightning.ai/docs/torchmetrics/stable/all-metrics.html), which
covers the following domains:

- Audio
- Classification
- Detection
- Information Retrieval
- Image
- Multimodal (Image-Text-3D Talking Heads)
- Nominal
- Regression
- Segmentation
- Text

Each domain may require some additional dependencies which can be installed with `pip install torchmetrics[audio]`,
`pip install torchmetrics['image']` etc.

### Additional features

#### Plotting

Visualization of metrics can be important to help understand what is going on with your machine learning algorithms.
Torchmetrics have built-in plotting support (install dependencies with `pip install torchmetrics[visual]`) for nearly
all modular metrics through the `.plot` method. Simply call the method to get a simple visualization of any metric!

```python
import torch
from torchmetrics.classification import MulticlassAccuracy, MulticlassConfusionMatrix

num_classes = 3

# this will generate two distributions that comes more similar as iterations increase
w = torch.randn(num_classes)
target = lambda it: torch.multinomial((it * w).softmax(dim=-1), 100, replacement=True)
preds = lambda it: torch.multinomial((it * w).softmax(dim=-1), 100, replacement=True)

acc = MulticlassAccuracy(num_classes=num_classes, average="micro")
acc_per_class = MulticlassAccuracy(num_classes=num_classes, average=None)
confmat = MulticlassConfusionMatrix(num_classes=num_classes)

# plot single value
for i in range(5):
    acc_per_class.update(preds(i), target(i))
    confmat.update(preds(i), target(i))
fig1, ax1 = acc_per_class.plot()
fig2, ax2 = confmat.plot()

# plot multiple values
values = []
for i in range(10):
    values.append(acc(preds(i), target(i)))
fig3, ax3 = acc.plot(values)
```
