Classification Model Assessment

Learn about different classification metrics available for checking the model performance.

We'll cover the following...

Classification is a task in which we have to predict the output from one of the defined categories. Based on predictions, we determine whether the model is good or not.

Accuracy

Accuracy is the measure of correctly classified instances. Accuracy is defined as a fraction of instances correctly classified. It is given as:

Accuracy=1Ni=1N[yi=yi^]Accuracy = \frac{1}{N}\sum_{i=1}^{N}[y_i = \hat{y_i}] ...
