Classifier Evaluation Metrics: Confusion

Matrix
Confusion Matrix:
Actual class\Predicted class C1 ¬ C1
C1 True Positives (TP) False Negatives (FN)
¬ C1 False Positives (FP) True Negatives (TN)

Example of Confusion Matrix:

Actual class\Predicted buy_computer buy_computer Total


class = yes = no
buy_computer = yes 6954 46 7000
buy_computer = no 412 2588 3000
Total 7366 2634 10000
Classifier Evaluation Metrics: Accuracy,
Error Rate, Sensitivity and Specificity
A\P C ¬C  Sensitivity: True Positive
C TP FN P recognition rate
¬C FP TN N
 Sensitivity = TP/P
P’ N’ All
 Specificity: True Negative
 Classifier Accuracy, or recognition rate
recognition rate: percentage of  Specificity = TN/N

test set tuples that are correctly


classified
Accuracy = (TP + TN)/All
 Error rate: 1 – accuracy, or
Error rate = (FP + FN)/All
Classifier Evaluation Metrics: Example

Actual Class\Predicted class cancer = yes cancer = no Total Recognition(%)


cancer = yes 90 210 300 30.00 (sensitivity
cancer = no 140 9560 9700 98.56 (specificity)
Total 230 9770 10000 96.40 (accuracy)

 Precision = 90/230 = 39.13% Recall = 90/300 = 30.00%


Ensemble Method
Bagging
Boosting
