Informedness#

Informedness a multiclass generalization of Youden's J Statistic and can be interpreted as the probability that an estimator will make an informed prediction. Its value ranges from -1 through 1 and has a value of 0 when the test yields no useful information.

\[ {\displaystyle Informedness = {\frac {\text{TP}}{{\text{TP}}+{\text{FN}}}}+{\frac {\text{TP}}{{\text{TN}}+{\text{FP}}}}-1} \]

Estimator Compatibility: Classifier, Anomaly Detector

Output Range: -1 to 1

Parameters#

This metric does not have any parameters.

Example#

$metric = new Informedness();
