Computing precision and recall

The sklearn.metrics submodule has many functions that allow you to easily calculate interesting metrics. So far, you've calculated precision and recall by hand - this is important while you develop your intuition for both these metrics.

In practice, once you do, you can leverage the precision_score and recall_score functions that automatically compute precision and recall, respectively. Both work similarly to other functions in sklearn.metrics - they accept 2 arguments: the first is the actual labels (y_test), and the second is the predicted labels (y_pred).

Let's now try a training size of 90%.

Interaktiv övning med praktiskt arbete

Testa den här övningen genom att slutföra den här exempelkoden.

# Import train_test_split
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split

# Create feature variable
X = telco.drop('Churn', axis=1)

# Create target variable
y = telco['Churn']

# Create training and testing sets
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, y, test_size=0.1)

# Import RandomForestClassifier
from sklearn.ensemble import RandomForestClassifier

# Instantiate the classifier
clf = RandomForestClassifier()

# Fit to the training data
clf.fit(X_train, y_train)

# Predict the labels of the test set
y_pred = clf.predict(X_test)

# Import precision_score
