# metametric

The `metametric` Python package offers a set of tools for quickly and easily defining and implementing evaluation metrics for a variety of structured prediction tasks in natural language processing (NLP) based on the framework presented in the following paper:

> [A Unified View of Evaluation Metrics for Structured Prediction](https://arxiv.org/abs/2310.13793). Yunmo Chen, William Gantt, Tongfei Chen, Aaron Steven White, and Benjamin Van Durme. *EMNLP 2023*.

The key features of the package include:

- A decorator for automatically defining and implementing a custom metric for an arbitrary `dataclass`.
- A collection of generic components for defining arbitrary new metrics based on the framework in the paper.
- Implementations of a number of metrics for common structured prediction tasks.


To install, run:
```bash
pip install metametric
```
