-    r"""
-    Mean Intersection-Over-Union is a common evaluation metric for
-    semantic image segmentation, which first computes the IOU for each
-    semantic class and then computes the average over classes.
-    IOU is defined as follows:
-
-    .. math::
-
-        IOU = \\frac{true\_positive}{(true\_positive + false\_positive + false\_negative)}.
-
-    The predictions are accumulated in a confusion matrix and mean-IOU
-    is then calculated from it.
-
-
-    Parameters:
-        input (Tensor): A n-D Tensor of prediction results for semantic labels with type int32 or int64.
-        label (Tensor): A Tensor of ground truth labels with type int32 or int64.
-                           Its shape should be the same as input.
-        num_classes (int32): The possible number of labels.
-
-    Returns:
-	Three Tensors.
-
-        - mean_iou(Tensor) : A 1-D Tensor representing the mean intersection-over-union with shape [1]. \
-			    Data type is float32.
-        - out_wrong(Tensor) : A 1-D Tensor with shape [num_classes]. Data type is int32. \
-			     The wrong numbers of each class.
-        - out_correct(Tensor): A 1-D  Tensor with shape [num_classes]. Data type is int32. The correct numbers of each class.
