sklearn.metrics.recall_score¶
- sklearn.metrics.recall_score(y_true, y_pred, labels=None, pos_label=1, average='binary', sample_weight=None)[source]¶
Compute the recall
The recall is the ratio tp / (tp + fn) where tp is the number of true positives and fn the number of false negatives. The recall is intuitively the ability of the classifier to find all the positive samples.
The best value is 1 and the worst value is 0.
Read more in the User Guide.
Parameters: y_true : 1d array-like, or label indicator array / sparse matrix
Ground truth (correct) target values.
y_pred : 1d array-like, or label indicator array / sparse matrix
Estimated targets as returned by a classifier.
labels : list, optional
The set of labels to include when average != 'binary', and their order if average is None. Labels present in the data can be excluded, for example to calculate a multiclass average ignoring a majority negative class, while labels not present in the data will result in 0 components in a macro average. For multilabel targets, labels are column indices. By default, all labels in y_true and y_pred are used in sorted order.
Changed in version 0.17: parameter labels improved for multiclass problem.
pos_label : str or int, 1 by default
The class to report if average='binary'. Until version 0.18 it is necessary to set pos_label=None if seeking to use another averaging method over binary targets.
average : string, [None, ‘binary’ (default), ‘micro’, ‘macro’, ‘samples’, ‘weighted’]
This parameter is required for multiclass/multilabel targets. If None, the scores for each class are returned. Otherwise, this determines the type of averaging performed on the data:
- 'binary':
Only report results for the class specified by pos_label. This is applicable only if targets (y_{true,pred}) are binary.
- 'micro':
Calculate metrics globally by counting the total true positives, false negatives and false positives.
- 'macro':
Calculate metrics for each label, and find their unweighted mean. This does not take label imbalance into account.
- 'weighted':
Calculate metrics for each label, and find their average, weighted by support (the number of true instances for each label). This alters ‘macro’ to account for label imbalance; it can result in an F-score that is not between precision and recall.
- 'samples':
Calculate metrics for each instance, and find their average (only meaningful for multilabel classification where this differs from accuracy_score).
Note that if pos_label is given in binary classification with average != ‘binary’, only that positive class is reported. This behavior is deprecated and will change in version 0.18.
sample_weight : array-like of shape = [n_samples], optional
Sample weights.
Returns: recall : float (if average is not None) or array of float, shape = [n_unique_labels]
Recall of the positive class in binary classification or weighted average of the recall of each class for the multiclass task.
Examples
>>> from sklearn.metrics import recall_score >>> y_true = [0, 1, 2, 0, 1, 2] >>> y_pred = [0, 2, 1, 0, 0, 1] >>> recall_score(y_true, y_pred, average='macro') 0.33... >>> recall_score(y_true, y_pred, average='micro') 0.33... >>> recall_score(y_true, y_pred, average='weighted') 0.33... >>> recall_score(y_true, y_pred, average=None) array([ 1., 0., 0.])
