Area under the ROC curve
The area under the ROC curve boils down many other performance estimates to one single number and allows you to assess a model's performance very quickly. For this reason, it is a very common performance measure for classification models.
Using AUC, you can rate the performance of a model using a grading system, where A is the best grade:
AUC | Grade |
---|---|
0.9 - 1 | A |
0.8 - 0.9 | B |
0.7 - 0.8 | C |
0.6 - 0.7 | D |
0.5 - 0.6 | E |
You are going to calculate your model's AUC using the predictions
tibble from the last exercise, which is still loaded.
