Evaluation#

Use the evaluation pages after training has produced an extrapolation_result.nf2.

  • Exporting writes field cubes and derived quantities to VTK, NPZ, HDF5, or FITS.

  • Quality metrics computes divergence, force-free, current-alignment, and magnetic-energy diagnostics.

Choose the output based on the next tool in your workflow:

Goal

Use

Notes

Inspect field lines or volumes in ParaView

nf2-export --format vtk

Best for visual quality checks and presentations.

Continue analysis in Python

nf2-export --format npz

Keeps arrays easy to load with NumPy.

Share structured data with other tools

nf2-export --format hdf5

Useful for larger runs and series.

Compare physical quality across runs

nf2-metrics

Reports divergence, force-free alignment, and energy diagnostics.

Inspect learned multi-height surfaces

nf2-export --format height

Requires a checkpoint with height mappings.
