Master Thesis: Quality assessment of machine learning results

About us

TerraLoupe is a German startup to empower autonomous mobility. We use machine learning technology to automaticcally detect objects from aerial imagery to create a 3D digital twin of the world. Located in the heart of Munich the next level of geo platform and HD mapping is getting to reality.

Your tasks

When using machine learning it is essential to determine the quality of the detection. During the training process ground truth data is available to measure the quality (accuracy, recall, IoU). When applied on unknown data (inference) there is usually no ground truth data available for evaluation. Manual quality control is not feasable as it will cover only small random parts of the output. A fully comprehensive manual check is not applicable.

Objective is to create a commercially viable approach to describe the detection quality of a neural network.

Requirements
