Questions and Answers

What is Precision in the context of evaluating a model's performance?

  • It evaluates the overall correctness of the model's predictions.
  • It is the fraction of positive cases that are correctly identified.
  • It considers the cases where the model predicts True Positives and False Negatives. (correct)
  • It is the fraction of negative cases that are correctly identified.
  • Why is Precision considered an important evaluation criteria for a model?

  • High Precision suggests a model is perfect.
  • Low Precision means the model is accurate but not reliable.
  • Low Precision leads to complacency and more false alarms. (correct)
  • Precision has no impact on model performance.
  • What does Recall measure when assessing a model's performance?

  • The fraction of positive cases that are correctly identified. (correct)
  • The cases where the model predicts False Positives.
  • The fraction of negative cases that are correctly identified.
  • The total number of predictions made by the model.
  • How does Recall parameter contribute to evaluating a model's performance?
