caculate the accuracy of bounding box (prediction result) with groundtruth

There are many methods, such as IOU

It is useful for detecting objecting, but is not quite suitable for my case.

Because I just want to know the overlap lenght, so I change the caculation function.

see.

%% test the accuracy of the detection
function [overlapRatio]= CalBoundingboxAcuuracy(Mbbox,bboxes)
%Mbbox--ground truth bounding box
%bboxes--detected bounding box
%method compare the detected width /width of the groundtruth
%wd--detected groundtruth in ground truth dataset
%wt-ground truth total width

if ~isempty(Mbbox)
    wt=sum(Mbbox(:,3));
    wd=0;
    if ~isempty(bboxes)
     for i=1:size(Mbbox,1)
        %ground truth dataset
       % Mbbox(i,:);
     for j=1:size(bboxes) %the bouding box must be merged 
            %detected bbox
            %rectint(Mbbox(4,:),bboxes(j,:)); %get the area of overlap area
            %% method 1
          %  overlapRatio = bboxOverlapRatio(Mbbox(i,:),bboxes(j,:),'Min');
           % wd=overlapRatio*Mbbox(i,3)+wd;
            % if only use the overlapRatio, the result is the overlap
            % ratio,we can't caculate how much the ground truth is included
            %% method 2
           % so we use  rectint to get the overlap area
           % wd=wd+rectint(Mbbox(i,:),bboxes(j,:))/Mbbox(i,4);
           % there is still problem, because the result of rectint is their
           % overlap area,so the we can't the the overlength correctly,
           % because the boxes are not always the same.
           %% we just caculate the overlap length 
           % we judge whether they are overlaped together, then caculate
           % the length
            if bboxOverlapRatio(Mbbox(i,:),bboxes(j,:),'Min')>0
                wd=wd+min(Mbbox(i,1)+Mbbox(i,3),bboxes(j,1)+bboxes(j,3))-max(Mbbox(i,1),bboxes(j,1));
                
            end
            
          
        end
     end
     
    end
    overlapRatio= wd/wt;% include no detection ,zero
else
     
              
         overlapRatio=1;
    
        
end
