For the Ultralytics YOLO Segmentation model, you would use the [validation mode](https://docs.ultralytics.com/modes/val/) (`val`) to get performance results. You would need to write a similar evaluation for the UNet model yourself. The COCO metrics evaluation are generally the go to common evaluation metrics, which is what the Ultralytics validation mode is based on.
