Question
Karlsson would like to gain a sense of her model's overall performance. In her research, Karlsson learns about the F1 score, which she hopes will provide a useful measure. Based on Exhibit 1, Karlsson's model's F1 score is closest to:
Answer Choices:
A. 82%
B. 92%
C. 72%
Explanation
The model's F1 score, which is the harmonic mean of precision and recall, is calculated as:
F1 score = (2 × P × R) / (P + R) = (2 × 0.9083 × 0.9303) / (0.9083 + 0.9303) = 0.9192
(92%)
Like accuracy, F1 is a measure of overall performance measures that gives equal weight to
FP and FN.
