Evaluation: from precision, recall and F-measure to ROC, informedness, markedness and correlationcs.LG
The paper critiques and expands on common evaluation metrics in machine learning.
problem The common evaluation metrics like Precision, Recall, F-Measure, and Rand Accuracy are biased and misleading.
method The paper introduces new measures like Informedness, Markedness, and Correlation to better reflect the quality of predictions.
result A system that performs worse in terms of Informedness can appear better using common measures like Precision and Recall.
