Introduction to Performance Metrics
Performance metric measures how well your data mining algorithm is performing on a given dataset.
For example, if we apply a classification algorithm on a dataset, we first check to see how many of the data points were classified correctly. This is a performance metric and the formal name for it is “accuracy.”
Performance metrics also help us decide is one algorithm is better or worse than another.
For example, one classification algorithm A classifies 80% of data points correctly and another classification algorithm B classifies 90% of data points correctly. We immediately realize that algorithm B is doing better. There are some intricacies that we will discuss in this chapter. 4

3. Recall is the proportion of “+” data points predicted as “+”
4. Precision is the proportion of data points predicted as “+” that are truly “+”

1. Critical Success Index or Threat Score is the ratio of correct predictions for class L to the sum of vertices that belong to L and those predicted as L
2. Bias - For each class L, it is the ratio of the total points with class label L to the number of points predicted as L.
Bias helps understand if a model is over or under-predicting a class

Note: Models here can be negated to move them to the upper right corner
Models that lie in this upper left have good performanceNote: This is where you aim to get the
model
1. Models that lie in lower left are conservative.
2. Will not predict “+” unless strong evidence
3. Low False positives but high False Negatives
1. Models that lie in upper right are liberal.

Cross-validation
Cross-validation also called rotation estimation, is a way to analyze how a predictive data mining model will perform on an unknown dataset, i.e., how well the model generalizes
Strategy: 1. Divide up the dataset into two non-overlapping subsets2. One subset is called the “test” and the other the “training”3. Build the model using the “training” dataset4. Obtain predictions of the “test” set5. Utilize the “test” set predictions to calculate all the
performance metrics
18
Typically cross-validation is performed for multiple iterations,selecting a different non-overlapping test and training set each time
Types of Cross-validation
• hold-out: Random 1/3rd of the data is used as test and remaining 2/3rd as training
• k-fold: Divide the data into k partitions, use one partition as test and remaining k-1 partitions for training
• Leave-one-out: Special case of k-fold, where k=1
19
Note: Selection of data points is typically done in stratified manner, i.e., the class distribution in the test set is similar to the training set

Unsupervised Learning Performance Metrics
Metrics that are applied when the ground truth is not always available (E.g., Clustering tasks)
Outline:• Evaluation Using Prior Knowledge• Evaluation Using Cluster Properties
21
Evaluation Using Prior Knowledge
To test the effectiveness of unsupervised learning methods is by considering a dataset D with known class labels, stripping the labels and providing the set as input to any unsupervised leaning algorithm, U. The resulting clusters are then compared with the knowledge priors to judge the performance of U
To evaluate performance1. Contingency Table2. Ideal and Observed Matrices

(A) To fill the table, initialize u11, u01, u10, u00 to 0(B) Then, for each pair of points of form (v,w):
1. if v and w belong to the same class and cluster then increment u11
2. if v and w belong to the same class but different cluster then increment u10
3. if v and w belong to the different class but same cluster then increment u01
4. if v and w belong to the different class and cluster then increment u00
Contingency TablePerformance Metrics
• Rand Statistic also called simple matching coefficient is a measure where both placing a pair of points with the same class label in the same cluster and placing a pair of points with different class labels in different clusters are given equal importance, i.e., it accounts for both specificity and sensitivity of the clustering
• Jaccard Coefficient can be utilized when placing a pair of points with the same class label in the same cluster is primarily important
24

Ideal and Observed Matrices
Given that the number of points is T, the ideal-matrix is a TxT matrix, where each cell (i,j) has a 1 if the points i and j belong to the same class and a 0 if they belong to different clusters. The observed-matrix is a TxT matrix, where a cell (i,j) has a 1 if the points i and j belong to the same cluster and a 0 if they belong to different cluster
• Mantel Test is a statistical test of the correlation between two matrices of the same rank. The two matrices, in this case, are symmetric and, hence, it is sufficient to analyze lower or upper diagonals of each matrix

26
Evaluation Using Cluster Properties
In the absence of prior knowledge we have to rely on the information from the clusters themselves to evaluate performance.1. Cohesion measures how closely objects in the same cluster
are related2. Separation measures how distinct or separated a cluster is
from all the other clusters
Here, gi refers to cluster i, W is total number of clusters, x and y are data points, proximity can be any similarity measure (e.g., cosine
similarity)
We want the cohesion to be close to 1 and separation to be close to 027

Optimizing Metrics
Performance metrics that act as optimization functions for a data mining algorithm
Outline:• Sum of Squared Errors• Preserved Variability
29
Sum of Squared Errors
Squared sum error (SSE) is typically used in clustering algorithms to measure the quality of the clusters obtained. This parameter takes into consideration the distance between each point in a cluster to its cluster center (centroid or some other chosen representative).
For dj, a point in cluster gi, where mi is the cluster center of gi, and W, the total number of clusters, SSE is defined as follows:
This value is small when points are close to their cluster center, indicating a good clustering. Similarly, a large SSE indicates a poor clustering. Thus, clustering algorithms aim to minimize SSE.
30
Preserved Variability
Preserved variability is typically used in eigenvector-based dimension reduction techniques to quantify the variance preserved by the chosen dimensions. The objective of the dimension reduction technique is to maximize this parameter.
Given that the point is represented in r dimensions (k << r), the eigenvalues are λ1>=λ2>=….. λr-1>=λr. The preserved variability (PV) is calculated as follows:
The value of this parameter depends on the number of dimensions chosen: the more included, the higher the value. Choosing all the dimensions will result in the perfect score of 1.

32
Statistical Significance Techniques
• Methods used to asses a p-value for the different performance metrics
Scenario:– We obtain say cohesion =0.99 for clustering algorithm A. From the first
look it feels like 0.99 is a very good score. – However, it is possible that the underlying data is structured in such a way
that you would get 0.99 no matter how you cluster the data. – Thus, 0.99 is not very significant. One way to decide that is by using
statistical significance estimation.
We will discuss the Monte Carlo Procedure in next slide!
33
Monte Carlo Procedure Empirical p-value Estimation
Monte Carlo procedure uses random sampling to assess the significance of a particular performance metric we obtain could have been attained at random.
For example, if we obtain a cohesion score of a cluster of size 5 is 0.99, we would be inclined to think that it is a very cohesive score. However, this value could have resulted due to the nature of the data and not due to the algorithm. To test the significance of this 0.99 value we1. Sample N (usually 1000) random sets of size 5 from the dataset2. Recalculate the cohesion for each of the 1000 sets3. Count R: number of random sets with value >= 0.99 (original score
of cluster)4. Empirical p-value for the cluster of size 5 with 0.99 score is given by
R/N5. We apply a cutoff say 0.05 to decide if 0.99 is significant
Steps 1-4 is the Monte Carlo method for p-value estimation.34

Model Comparison
Metrics that compare the performance of different algorithms
Scenario:1) Model 1 provides an accuracy of 70% and Model 2 provides
an accuracy of 75%2) From the first look, Model 2 seems better, however it could
be that Model 1 is predicting Class1 better than Class23) However, Class1 is indeed more important than Class2 for
our problem4) We can use model comparison methods to take this notion of
“importance” into consideration when we pick one model over another
Cost-based Analysis is an important model comparison method discussed in the next few slides.
36
Cost-based Analysis
In real-world applications, certain aspects of model performance are considered more important than others. For example: if a person with cancer was diagnosed as cancer-free or vice-versa then the prediction model should be especially penalized. This penalty can be introduced in the form of a cost-matrix.
