Hu similarity coefficient: a clinically oriented metric to evaluate contour accuracy in radiation therapy

Abstract To propose a clinically oriented quantitative metric, Hu similarity coefficient (HSC), to evaluate contour quality, gauge the performance of auto contouring methods, and aid effective allocation of clinical resources. The HSC is defined as the ratio of the number of boundary points of the i...
