- **Detailed report generation** with recommendations
- **Filtering and listing** capabilities for organized review

### 3. **Convenient Launcher** (`run_evaluation.py`)
- **One-click startup** for the web interface
- **Automatic environment checking** and error handling

## 📊 Evaluation Criteria

The evaluation system uses **5 comprehensive criteria**, each scored on a **1-5 scale**:

### 1. **Prompt Adherence** 
- How well does the image match the text prompt?
- Scale: 1=Poor match → 5=Perfect match

### 2. **Style Consistency**
- How well does the image reflect the intended artistic style?
- Scale: 1=Style not evident → 5=Style perfectly executed

### 3. **Mood & Atmosphere**
- How well does the image convey the intended mood/atmosphere?
- Scale: 1=Wrong mood → 5=Perfect mood

### 4. **Technical Quality**
- Overall image quality (resolution, composition, artifacts)
- Scale: 1=Poor quality → 5=Excellent quality

### 5. **Creative Appeal**
- Subjective aesthetic and creative value
- Scale: 1=Unappealing → 5=Highly appealing

## 🚀 Quick Start

### Web Interface (Recommended for Manual Review)

```bash
# Install required dependency
pip install imagehash

# Launch the evaluation interface
python run_evaluation.py

# Or run directly
streamlit run src/generators/compi_phase1d_evaluate_quality.py
```

The web interface will open at `http://localhost:8501` with:
- **Single Image Review**: Detailed evaluation of individual images
- **Batch Evaluation**: Quick scoring for multiple images
- **Summary Analysis**: Statistics and performance insights

### Command-Line Interface (For Automation)

```bash
# Analyze existing evaluations
python src/generators/compi_phase1d_cli_evaluation.py --analyze

# List unevaluated images
python src/generators/compi_phase1d_cli_evaluation.py --list-unevaluated

# Batch score all unevaluated images (prompt, style, mood, quality, appeal)
python src/generators/compi_phase1d_cli_evaluation.py --batch-score 4 3 4 4 3 --notes "Initial baseline evaluation"

# Generate detailed report
python src/generators/compi_phase1d_cli_evaluation.py --report --output evaluation_report.txt
```

## 📈 Understanding Your Data

### Evaluation Log (`outputs/evaluation_log.csv`)

Contains detailed records with columns:
- **Image metadata**: filename, prompt, style, mood, seed, variation
- **Evaluation scores**: All 5 criteria scores (1-5)
- **Objective metrics**: dimensions, file size, perceptual hashes
- **Evaluation metadata**: timestamp, notes, evaluator comments

### Key Metrics to Track

1. **Overall Score Trends**: Are your images improving over time?
2. **Criteria Performance**: Which aspects (prompt match, style, etc.) need work?
3. **Style/Mood Effectiveness**: Which combinations work best?
4. **Consistency**: Are similar prompts producing consistent results?

## 🎯 Best Practices

### Systematic Evaluation Workflow

1. **Generate a batch** of images using your CompI tools
2. **Evaluate systematically** using consistent criteria
3. **Analyze patterns** in the data to identify strengths/weaknesses
4. **Adjust generation parameters** based on insights
5. **Re-evaluate** to measure improvements

### Evaluation Tips

- **Be consistent** in your scoring criteria across sessions
- **Use notes** to capture specific observations and issues
- **Evaluate in batches** of similar style/mood for better comparison
- **Track changes** over time as you refine your generation process

### Interpreting Scores

- **4.0+ average**: Excellent performance, ready for production use
- **3.0-3.9 average**: Good performance, minor improvements needed
- **2.0-2.9 average**: Moderate performance, significant improvements needed
- **Below 2.0**: Poor performance, major adjustments required

## 🔧 Advanced Usage

### Filtering and Analysis

```bash
# Analyze only specific styles
python src/generators/compi_phase1d_cli_evaluation.py --analyze --style "anime"

# List images by mood
python src/generators/compi_phase1d_cli_evaluation.py --list-all --mood "dramatic"

# Generate style-specific report
python src/generators/compi_phase1d_cli_evaluation.py --report --style "oil painting" --output oil_painting_analysis.txt
```

### Custom Evaluation Workflows

The evaluation tools are designed to be flexible:
- **Modify criteria** by editing `EVALUATION_CRITERIA` in the source
- **Add custom metrics** by extending the `get_image_metrics()` function
- **Integrate with other tools** using the CSV export functionality
