Confusion matrix
we know that the precision formula is tp/(tp+fp) and the recall formula is tp/(tp+fn) my doubt is how to get tp, fp, fn values from the confusion matrix and what is predicted on the y-axis side and what is true on x-axis side of the given confusion matrix.
from the confusion matrix. I want tp, tn, fp, fn, and what is true on the x-axis and predicated on the y-axis and what are background fp and background fn.
How to read tp, tn, fp, fn from the given confusion matrix above image.
True Positive are the predicted output that are actually correct and predicted correct.
True Negative are the predicted output that are actually incorrect and predicted incorrect.
False Positive are the predicted output that are actually incorrect and predicted correct.
False Negative are the predicted output that are actually correct and predicted incorrect.
you can go throught this medium article they have elplained it for multiclass classification you can easily understand this.
Multi-Class Metrics Precision, Recall
confusion matrix for multi class is :
main diameter is TP
TP the predicted output that are actually correct and predicted correct.
TN are the predicted output that are actually incorrect and predicted incorrect.
FP are the predicted output that are actually incorrect and predicted correct.
FP are the predicted output that are actually correct and predicted incorrect.

How can I calculate the false positive rate for an object detection algorithm, where I can have multiple objects per image?
In my data, a given image may have many objects. I am counting a predicted box as a true positive if its IOU with a truth box is above a certain threshold, and as a false positive otherwise. For example:
I have 2 prediction bounding boxes and 2 ground-truth bounding boxes:
I computed IoU for each pair of prediction and ground-truth bounding boxes:
IoU = 0.00, 0.60, 0.10, 0.05
threshold = 0.50
In this case do I have TP example or not? Could You explain it?
Summary, specific: Yes, you have a TP; you also have a FP and a FN.
Summary, detailed: Your prediction model correctly identified one GT (ground truth) box. It missed the other. It incorrectly identified a third box.
Classification logic:
At the very least, your IoU figures should be a matrix, not a linear sequence. For M predictions and N GT boxes, you will have a NxM matrix. Your looks like this:
0.00 0.60
0.10 0.05
Now, find the largest value in the matrix, 0.60. This is above the threshold, so you declare the match and eliminate both that prediction and that GT box from the matrix. This leaves you with a rather boring matrix:
0.10
Since this value is below the threshold, you are out of matches. You have one prediction and one GT remaining. With the one "hit", you have three objects in your classification set: two expected objects, and a third created by the predictor. You code your gt and pred lists like this:
gt = [1, 1, 0] // The first two objects are valid; the third is a phantom.
pred = [1, 0, 1] // Identified one actual box and the phantom.
Is that clear enough?
You can use an algorithm (e.g. Hungarian algorithm aka Kuhn–Munkres algorithm aka Munkres algorithm) to assign detections to ground truths. You might incorporate the ability to not assign a detection to ground truth & vice versa (e.g. allow for false alarms and missed detections).
After assigning the detections to ground truths, just use the definition of TPR Wikipedia page for Sensitivity (aka TPR) & Specificity (aka TNR)
I provide this answer since I think #Prune provided an answer which uses a Greedy algorithm to perform assignment of detections to ground truths (i.e. "Now, find the largest value in the matrix, 0.60. This is above the threshold, so you declare the match and eliminate both that prediction and that GT box from the matrix."). This Greedy assignment method will not work well in all scenarios. For example imagine a matrix of IoU values between detections and ground truth bounding boxes
det1 det2
pred1 0.4 0.0
pred2 0.6 0.4
The Greedy algorithm would assign pred2 to det1 and pred1 to det2 (or pred1 to nothing if accounting for possibility of false alarms). However, the Hungarian algorithm would assign pred1 to det1 and pred2 to det2, which might be better in some cases.
I am new babie to the Deep Learning field, and I am use log-likelihood method to compare the MSE metrics.Could anyone be able to show how to calculate the following 2 predicted output examples with 3 outputs neurons each. Thanks
yt = [ [1,0,0],[0,0,1]]
yp = [ [0.9, 0.2,0.2], [0.2,0.8,0.3] ]
MSE or Mean Squared Error is simply the expected value of the squared difference between the predicted and the ground truth labels, represented as
\text{MSE}(\hat{\theta}) = E\left[(\hat{\theta} - \theta)^2\right]
where theta is the ground truth labels and theta^hat is the predicted labels
I am not sure what are you referring to exactly, like a theoretical question or a part of code
As a Python implementation
def mean_squared_error(A, B):
return np.square(np.subtract(A,B)).mean()
yt = [[1,0,0],[0,0,1]]
yp = [[0.9, 0.2,0.2], [0.2,0.8,0.3]]
mse = mean_squared_error(yt, yp)
print(mse)
This will give a value of 0.21
If you are using one of the DL frameworks like TensorFlow, then they are already providing the function which calculates the mse loss between tensors
tf.losses.mean_squared_error
where
tf.losses.mean_squared_error(
labels,
predictions,
weights=1.0,
scope=None,
loss_collection=tf.GraphKeys.LOSSES,
reduction=Reduction.SUM_BY_NONZERO_WEIGHTS
)
Args:
labels: The ground truth output tensor, same dimensions as 'predictions'.
predictions: The predicted outputs.
weights: Optional Tensor whose rank is either 0, or the same rank as labels, and must be broadcastable to labels (i.e., all dimensions
must be either 1, or the same as the corresponding losses dimension).
scope: The scope for the operations performed in computing the loss.
loss_collection: collection to which the loss will be added.
reduction: Type of reduction to apply to loss.
Returns:
Weighted loss float Tensor. If reduction is NONE, this has the same
shape as labels; otherwise, it is scalar.
When we evaluate a classifier in WEKA, for example a 2-class classifier, it gives us 3 f-measures: f-measure for class 1, for class 2 and the weighted f-measure.
I'm so confused! I thought f-measure is a balanced measure that show balanced performance measure for multiple class, so what does f-measure for class 1 and 2 mean?
The f-score (or f-measure) is calculated based on the precision and recall. The calculation is as follows:
Precision = t_p / (t_p + f_p)
Recall = t_p / (t_p + f_n)
F-score = 2 * Precision * Recall / (Precision + Recall)
Where t_p is the number of true positives, f_p the number of false positives and f_n the number of false negatives. Precision is defined as the fraction of elements correctly classified as positive out of all the elements the algorithm classified as positive, whereas recall is the fraction of elements correctly classified as positive out of all the positive elements.
In the multiclass case, each class i have a respective precision and recall, in which a "true positive" is an element predicted to be in i is really in it and a "true negative" is an element predicted to not be in i that isn't in it.
Thus, with this new definition of precision and recall, each class can have its own f-score by doing the same calculation as in the binary case. This is what Weka's showing you.
The weighted f-score is a weighted average of the classes' f-scores, weighted by the proportion of how many elements are in each class.
I am confused too,
I used the same equation for f-score for each class depending of their precision and recall, but the results are different!
example:
f-score different from weka claculaton
For my regression problem, I am using GridSearchCV of scikit-learn to get the best alpha value and using this alpha value in my estimator (Lasso, Ridge, ElasticNet).
My target values in the training dataset do not contain any negative values. But some of the predicted values are negative (around 5-10%).
I am using the following code.
My training data contains some Null values and I am replacing them by mean of that feature.
return Lasso(alpha=best_parameters['alpha']).fit(X,y).predict(X_test)
Any idea why am I getting some as Negative values ?
Shape of X,y and X_test are (20L, 400L) (20L,) (10L, 400L)
Lasso is just regularized linear regression so in fact for each trained model there are some values for which the predictor will be negative.
consider a linar function
f(x) = w'x + b
Where w and x are vectors and ' is transposition operator
No matter what are the values of w and b, as long as w is not a zero vector - there are always values of x for which f(x)<0. And it does not matter that your training set used to compute w and b did not contain any negative values, as the linear model will always (possibly in some really big values) cross the 0 value.
When training a softmax classifier, I used minFunc function in Matlab, but it didn't work, the step size would reach TolX quickly and the accuracy is not even 5%. There must be something wrong but I just couldn't find it.
Here is my Matlab code about the cost function and gradient:
z=x*W; %x is the input data, it's an m*n matrix, m is the number of samples, n is the number of units in the input layer. W is an n*o matrix, o is the number of units in the output layer.
a=sigmoid(z)./repmat(sum(sigmoid(z),2),1,o); %a is the output of the classifier.
J=-mean(sum(target.*log(a),2))+l/2*sum(sum(W.^2)); %This is the cost function, target is the desired output, it's an m*n matrix. l is the weight decay parameter.
Wgrad=-x'*(target-a)/m+l*W;
the formula can be found here. Can anyone point out where my error is?
I found the error, I should not use the sigmoid function, it should simply be exp.
