KNN and IoU-based Verification is used to verify detections and choose between multiple detections of the same underlying object. It was originally used within the context of blood cell counting in medical images. To avoid this double counting problem, the KNN algorithm is applied in each platelet to determine its closest platelet and then using the intersection of union (IOU) between two platelets we calculate their extent of overlap. The authors allow 10% of the overlap between platelet and its closest platelet based on empirical observations. If the overlap is larger than that, they ignore that cell as a double count to get rid of spurious counting.

Usage over time archive 2025-07-28

Papers per year tagged with KNN and IOU based verification: 2019 to 2019, peak 1 1 0 2019: 1 paper 2019
Papers per year the archive tags with this method, by the paper's archive date (1 dated). Bars are counts, not a trend claim.

Components: the archive holds no method-to-method composition, so PwC's Components table cannot be rebuilt; the Papers list carries no Results column for the same reason (the archive does not join its leaderboard rows to method tags).
