Study Notes
Train/Test Method in Machine Learning
- Train/Test is a method used to evaluate the accuracy of a machine learning model.
- Data is split into two sets: training and testing.
- Training data is used to create/train the model.
- Testing data is used to evaluate the model's accuracy on unseen data.
Example Data Set
- Data set illustrates 100 customers and their shopping habits.
- X-axis represents minutes before purchase.
- Y-axis represents amount spent on purchase.
Splitting Data
- Training set (80%): A random selection of the original dataset.
- Testing set (20%): The remaining portion of the data.
Fitting the Data
- Polynomial regression is suggested as a possible model fit to determine relationship between time spent and money spent.
- Code example uses numpy and matplotlib to create and display this line.
R-squared Score
- R-squared (R2) measures the relationship between x and y.
- Ranges from 0 (no relationship) to 1 (perfect relationship).
- sklearn's r2_score() function used to calculate relationship in the data.
- R2 score calculated for both training and testing sets.
Predicting Values
- Use the trained polynomial model to predict values for new input values.
- Example shows how to predict amount spent for a customer staying 5 minutes in store.
Confusion Matrix
- Used for classification problems.
- Rows represent actual classes, while columns represent predicted classes.
- Identifies where errors in the model occur.
- Possible to generate confusion matrix from a logistic regression or other classification models.
Confusion Matrix Metrics
- TP (True Positive): Predicted positive, actual positive.
- TN (True Negative): Predicted negative, actual negative.
- FP (False Positive): Predicted positive, actual negative (Type 1 error).
- FN (False Negative): Predicted negative, actual positive (Type 2 error).
Classification Performance Metrics
- Accuracy: The ratio of correct predictions to total predictions.
- Precision: Predictive accuracy on positive cases. Percentage of correctly predicted positive instances.
- Recall (Sensitivity): Percentage of correctly predicted positive cases out of actual positive cases. Percentage of actual positive cases correctly predicted.
- Specificity: Correctly predicted negative cases percentage out of actual negative cases.
- F1-score: Harmonic mean of precision and recall. A balance between precision and recall.
-
Code Examples: Demonstrate how to calculate these using Python's
sklearnlibrary.
Choosing the Right Metric
- Select the most appropriate metric (accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score) based on the specific needs of the problem.
- Accuracy important for balanced datasets.
- Precision useful when FP errors are more important than FN errors.
- Recall (sensitivity) more important if FN errors are more important.
- F1-score best when both FP and FN count.
