"""Training-free hallucination detector for the Cards dataset. A generated Cards image is a 2x2 grid of playing cards. Each of the four quadrants is template-matched (``cv2.TM_CCOEFF_NORMED``) against the set of standard card templates. If the *worst* quadrant match falls below ``--threshold``, the image cannot be explained by any valid card and is counted as *hallucinated* (wrong symbol count/color, missing or conflicting symbols, noise, etc.). See paper Section 5.2.1 / Appendix I. Card templates are not bundled here (they ship with the Cards dataset on HuggingFace, under ``Cards/templates``). Point ``--template-dir`` at that folder. Usage ----- python -m evaluation.cards_validator \ --gen-dir /path/to/generated/cards \ --template-dir /path/to/Cards/templates \ [--threshold 0.95] [--color] ``--gen-dir`` may be repeated (one folder per seed). Reports per-folder and aggregated (mean +/- std) hallucination rate.
