Description

Binary class confusion matrix and multi class confusion matrix explained visually

Summary

  • Binary and Multi-class Confusion Matrices Explained We’ve built a machine learning model to classify whether or not a patient has some kind of virus.
  • Image by author) Where we place this threshold value determines how biased our model is to the two classes.
  • The model predicted positive and the actual class was negative.
  • Along the y-axis is the actual values (The patients and their label of either positive or negative) and along the x-axis is our prediction.
