Performance measurement metricDefinitionFormula

AccuracyAccuracy defines the capability of the proposed model to correctly classify the outputTrue negative + true positive/total samples

SensitivitySensitivity is about verifying the identification of positive outcomes from the proposed modelTrue positive/true positive + false negative

SpecificitySensitivity is about verifying the identification of negative outcomes from the proposed modelTrue negative/true negative + false positive

F-measureF-measure is helpful in identifying the outcomes of precision with the recall of the proposed model2 × (precision × recall)/(recall + precision)
