Subjectively assessed the accuracy and completeness of the contour

Up to 79.1% (score 4 or 5) and 8.1% inaccurate (score 1 or 2)

Li et al. [36]

Custom (40)

Accuracy, sensitivity, specificity

Left lung: 95.2% accuracy, 91% sensitivity, 96.5% specificity; right lung: 96% accuracy, 91.1% sensitivity, 97.2% specificity

Iakovidis et al. [37]

Custom (24)

Accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity

95.3% sensitivity, 94.3% specificity

Wan et al. [38]

JSRT Custom (154)

Accuracy, overlap scores, precision, sensitivity, specificity, and F score

Dai et al. [52]

JSRT, MC

Intersection-over-union

Both lungs: 94:7% ± 0:4%, heart: 86:6% ± 1:2%

  1. Accuracy: (TP + TN)/(TP + TN + FP + FN); sensitivity: R = TP/(TP + FN); specificity: TN/(TN + FP); overlap scores: TP/(TP + FP + FN); precision (or positive predictive value): P = TP/(TP + FP); F score: 2 × P × R/(P + R); intersection-over-union: IoU = TP/(TP + FP + FN); negative precision: TN/(TN + FN); false accept rate: FAR = FP/(FP + TN); false rejection rate: FRR = FN/(TP + FN); where TP, TN, FP, and FN represent true positive, true negative, false positive, and false negative, respectively
  2. Dice coefficient: DSC = 2 × (|S∩GT|)/(|S| + |GT|, jaccard coefficient of concordance: JS = (|S∩GT|)/(|S∪GT|), where S is segmentation result, GT is the ground truth
