+## Understanding min_score and threshold
|
|
|
+`min_score` defines the minimum score for Frigate to begin tracking a detected object. Any single detection below `min_score` will be ignored as a false positive. `threshold` is based on the median of the history of scores for a tracked object. Consider the following frames when `min_score` is set to 0.6 and threshold is set to 0.85:

|
|

|
|
|
+In frame 2, the score is below the `min_score` value, so frigate ignores it and it becomes a 0.0. The computed score is the median of the score history (padding to at least 3 values), and only when that computed score crosses the `threshold` is the object marked as a true positive. That happens in frame 4 in the example.
