# multilabelf1score
> Metric `MultilabelF1Score` from `torchmetrics` (torchmetrics.classification.MultilabelF1Score)
## When to invoke this skill
The user has predictions + ground truth and asks to evaluate with MultilabelF1Score, or
mentions `torchmetrics.classification.MultilabelF1Score` directly, or wants the standard torchmetrics implementation.
## Reference signature
```python
from torchmetrics.classification import MultilabelF1Score
# MultilabelF1Score(num_labels: int, threshold: float = 0.5, average: Optional[Literal['micro', 'macro', 'weighted', 'none']] = 'macro', multidim_average: Literal['global', 'samplewise'] = 'global', ignore_index: Optional[int] = None, validate_args: bool = True, zero_division: float = 0, **kwargs: Any) -> None
```
## Library docstring
```
Compute F-1 score for multilabel tasks.
.. math::
F_{1} = 2\frac{\text{precision} * \text{recall}}{(\text{precision}) + \text{recall}}
The metric is only proper defined when :math:`\text{TP} + \text{FP} \neq 0 \wedge \text{TP} + \text{FN} \neq 0`
where :math:`\text{TP}`, :math:`\text{FP}` and :math:`\text{FN}` represent the number of true positives, false
positives and false negatives respectively. If this case is encountered for any label, the metric for that label
will be set to `zero_division` (0 or 1, default is 0) and the overall metric may therefore be affected in turn.
As input to ``forward`` and ``update`` the metric accepts the following input:
- ``preds`` (:class:`~torch.Tensor`): An int or float tensor of shape ``(N, C, ...)``.
If preds is a floating point tensor with values outside [0,1] range we consider the input to be logits and
will auto apply sigmoid per element. Additionally, we convert to int tensor with thresholding using the value
in ``threshold``.
- ``target`` (:class:`~torch.Tensor`): An int tensor of shape ``(N, C, ...)``.
As output to ``forward`` and ``compute`` the metric returns the following output:
- ``mlf1s`` (:class:`~torch.Tensor`): A tensor whose returned shape depends on the ``average`` and
``multidim_average`` arguments:
- If ``multidim_average`` is set to ``global``:
- If ``average='micro'/'macro'/'weighted'``, the output will be a scalar tensor
- If ``average=None/'none'``, the shape will be ``(C,)``
- If ``multidim_average`` is set to ``samplewise``:
- If ``average='micro'/'macro'/'weighted'``, the shape will be ``(N,)``
- If ``average=None/'none'``, the shape will be ``(N, C)```
If ``multidim_average`` is set to ``samplewise`` we expect at least one additional dimension ``...`` to be present,
which the reduction will then be applied over instead of the sample dimension ``N``.
Args:
num_labels: Integer specifying the number of labels
threshold: Threshold for transforming probability to binary (0,1) predictions
average:
Defines the reduction that is applied over labels. Should be one of the following:
- ``micro``: Sum statistics over all labe
```
## Quick recipe
```python
import torchmetrics.classification as _m
score = _m.MultilabelF1Score(y_true, y_pred)
```
## Don'ts
- Don't reimplement when the library version handles edge cases (NaN, ties, empty inputs) better than a hand-rolled formula.
- Always check the library version's argument order — sklearn is `(y_true, y_pred)` while torchmetrics is `(preds, target)`.
