Example of confusion matrix usage to evaluate the quality
of the output of a classifier on the iris data set. The
diagonal elements represent the number of points for which
the predicted label is equal to the true label, while
off-diagonal elements are those that are mislabeled by the
classifier. The higher the diagonal values of the confusion
matrix the better, indicating many correct predictions.

The figures show the confusion matrix with and without
normalization by class support size (number of elements
in each class). This kind of normalization can be
interesting in case of class imbalance to have a more
visual interpretation of which class is being misclassified.

Here the results are not as good as they could be as our
choice for the regularization parameter C was not the best.
In real life applications this parameter is usually chosen
using Tuning the hyper-parameters of an estimator.

Visualizations play an essential role in the exploratory data analysis activity of machine learning.

You can plot confusion matrix using the confusion_matrix() method from sklearn.metrics package.

Why Confusion Matrix?

After creating a machine learning model, accuracy is a metric used to evaluate the machine learning model. On the other hand, you cannot use accuracy in every case as it’ll be misleading. Because the accuracy of 99% may look good as a percentage, but consider a machine learning model used for Fraud Detection or Drug consumption detection.

In such critical scenarios, the 1% percentage failure can create a significant impact.

For example, if a model predicted a fraud transaction of 10000$ as Not Fraud, then it is not a good model and cannot be used in production.

In the drug consumption model, consider if the model predicted that the person had consumed the drug but actually has not. But due to the False prediction of the model, the person may be imprisoned for a crime that is not committed actually.

In such scenarios, you need a better metric than accuracy to validate the machine learning model.
This is where the confusion matrix comes into the picture.

In this tutorial, you’ll learn what a confusion matrix is, how to plot confusion matrix for the binary classification model and the multivariate classification model.

What is Confusion Matrix?

Confusion matrix is a matrix that allows you to visualize the performance of the classification machine learning models. With this visualization, you can get a better idea of how your machine learning model is performing.

Creating Binary Class Classification Model

In this section, you’ll create a classification model that will predict whether a patient has breast cancer or not, denoted by output classes True or False.

The breast cancer dataset is available in the sklearn dataset library.

It contains a total number of 569 data rows. Each row includes 30 numeric features and one output class. If you want to manipulate or visualize the sklearn dataset, you can convert it into pandas dataframe and play around with the pandas dataframe functionalities.

To create the model, you’ll load the sklearn dataset, split it into train and testing set and fit the train data into the KNeighborsClassifier model.

After creating the model, you can use the test data to predict the values and check how the model is performing.

You can use the actual output classes from your test data and the predicted output returned by the predict() method to plot the confusion matrix and evaluate the model accuracy.

Use the below snippet to create the model.

Snippet

import numpy as np

from sklearn.datasets import load_breast_cancer
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
from sklearn.neighbors import KNeighborsClassifier as KNN

breastCancer = load_breast_cancer()

X = breastCancer.data
y = breastCancer.target

# Split the dataset into train and test
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, y, test_size = 0.4, random_state = 42)

knn = KNN(n_neighbors = 3)

# train the model
knn.fit(X_train, y_train)

print('Model is Created')

The KNeighborsClassifier model is created for the breast cancer training data.

Output

    Model is Created

To test the model created, you can use the test data obtained from the train test split and predict the output. Then, you’ll have the predicted values.

Snippet

y_pred = knn.predict(X_test)

y_pred

Output

    array([0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1,
           0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1,
           1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1,
           0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,
           1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1,
           0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0,
           0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1,
           1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1,
           0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1,
           0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1,
           0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1])

Now use the predicted classes and the actual output classes from the test data to visualize the confusion matrix.

You’ll learn how to plot the confusion matrix for the binary classification model in the next section.

Plot Confusion Matrix for Binary Classes

You can create the confusion matrix using the confusion_matrix() method from sklearn.metrics package. The confusion_matrix() method will give you an array that depicts the True Positives, False Positives, False Negatives, and True negatives.

** Snippet**

from sklearn.metrics import confusion_matrix

#Generate the confusion matrix
cf_matrix = confusion_matrix(y_test, y_pred)

print(cf_matrix)

Output

    [[ 73   7]
     [  7 141]]

Once you have the confusion matrix created, you can use the heatmap() method available in the seaborn library to plot the confusion matrix.

Seaborn heatmap() method accepts one mandatory parameter and few other optional parameters.

  • data – A rectangular dataset that can be coerced into a 2d array. Here, you can pass the confusion matrix you already have
  • annot=True – To write the data value in the cell of the printed matrix. By default, this is False.
  • cmap=Blues – This is to denote the matplotlib color map names. Here, we’ve created the plot using the blue color shades.

The heatmap() method returns the matplotlib axes that can be stored in a variable. Here, you’ll store in variable ax. Now, you can set title, x-axis and y-axis labels and tick labels for x-axis and y-axis.

  • Title – Used to label the complete image. Use the set_title() method to set the title.
  • Axes-labels – Used to name the x axis or y axis. Use the set_xlabel() to set the x-axis label and set_ylabel() to set the y-axis label.
  • Tick labels – Used to denote the datapoints on the axes. You can pass the tick labels in an array, and it must be in ascending order. Because the confusion matrix contains the values in the ascending order format. Use the xaxis.set_ticklabels() to set the tick labels for x-axis and yaxis.set_ticklabels() to set the tick labels for y-axis.

Finally, use the plot.show() method to plot the confusion matrix.

Use the below snippet to create a confusion matrix, set title and labels for the axis, and set the tick labels, and plot it.

Snippet

import seaborn as sns

ax = sns.heatmap(cf_matrix, annot=True, cmap='Blues')

ax.set_title('Seaborn Confusion Matrix with labelsnn');
ax.set_xlabel('nPredicted Values')
ax.set_ylabel('Actual Values ');

## Ticket labels - List must be in alphabetical order
ax.xaxis.set_ticklabels(['False','True'])
ax.yaxis.set_ticklabels(['False','True'])

## Display the visualization of the Confusion Matrix.
plt.show()

Output

Confusion Matrix With labels
Seaborn Confusion Matrix With Labels

Alternatively, you can also plot the confusion matrix using the ConfusionMatrixDisplay.from_predictions() method available in the sklearn library itself if you want to avoid using the seaborn.

Next, you’ll learn how to plot a confusion matrix with percentages.

Plot Confusion Matrix for Binary Classes With Percentage

The objective of creating and plotting the confusion matrix is to check the accuracy of the machine learning model. It’ll be good to visualize the accuracy with percentages rather than using just the number. In this section, you’ll learn how to plot a confusion matrix for binary classes with percentages.

To plot the confusion matrix with percentages, first, you need to calculate the percentage of True Positives, False Positives, False Negatives, and True negatives. You can calculate the percentage of these values by dividing the value by the sum of all values.

Using the np.sum() method, you can sum all values in the confusion matrix.

Then pass the percentage of each value as data to the heatmap() method by using the statement cf_matrix/np.sum(cf_matrix).

Use the below snippet to plot the confusion matrix with percentages.

Snippet

ax = sns.heatmap(cf_matrix/np.sum(cf_matrix), annot=True, 
            fmt='.2%', cmap='Blues')

ax.set_title('Seaborn Confusion Matrix with labelsnn');
ax.set_xlabel('nPredicted Values')
ax.set_ylabel('Actual Values ');

## Ticket labels - List must be in alphabetical order
ax.xaxis.set_ticklabels(['False','True'])
ax.yaxis.set_ticklabels(['False','True'])

## Display the visualization of the Confusion Matrix.
plt.show()

Output

Seaborn Confusion Matrix with Labels

Plot Confusion Matrix for Binary Classes With Labels

In this section, you’ll plot a confusion matrix for Binary classes with labels True Positives, False Positives, False Negatives, and True negatives.

You need to create a list of the labels and convert it into an array using the np.asarray() method with shape 2,2. Then, this array of labels must be passed to the attribute annot. This will plot the confusion matrix with the labels annotation.

Use the below snippet to plot the confusion matrix with labels.

Snippet

labels = ['True Neg','False Pos','False Neg','True Pos']

labels = np.asarray(labels).reshape(2,2)

ax = sns.heatmap(cf_matrix, annot=labels, fmt='', cmap='Blues')

ax.set_title('Seaborn Confusion Matrix with labelsnn');
ax.set_xlabel('nPredicted Values')
ax.set_ylabel('Actual Values ');

## Ticket labels - List must be in alphabetical order
ax.xaxis.set_ticklabels(['False','True'])
ax.yaxis.set_ticklabels(['False','True'])

## Display the visualization of the Confusion Matrix.
plt.show()

Plot Confusion Matrix for Binary Classes With Labels And Percentages

In this section, you’ll learn how to plot a confusion matrix with labels, counts, and percentages.

You can use this to measure the percentage of each label. For example, how much percentage of the predictions are True Positives, False Positives, False Negatives, and True negatives

For this, first, you need to create a list of labels, then count each label in one list and measure the percentage of the labels in another list.

Then you can zip these different lists to create labels. Zipping means concatenating an item from each list and create one list. Then, this list must be converted into an array using the np.asarray() method.

Then pass the final array to annot attribute. This will create a confusion matrix with the label, count, and percentage information for each class.

Use the below snippet to visualize the confusion matrix with all the details.

Snippet

group_names = ['True Neg','False Pos','False Neg','True Pos']

group_counts = ["{0:0.0f}".format(value) for value in
                cf_matrix.flatten()]

group_percentages = ["{0:.2%}".format(value) for value in
                     cf_matrix.flatten()/np.sum(cf_matrix)]

labels = [f"{v1}n{v2}n{v3}" for v1, v2, v3 in
          zip(group_names,group_counts,group_percentages)]

labels = np.asarray(labels).reshape(2,2)

ax = sns.heatmap(cf_matrix, annot=labels, fmt='', cmap='Blues')

ax.set_title('Seaborn Confusion Matrix with labelsnn');
ax.set_xlabel('nPredicted Values')
ax.set_ylabel('Actual Values ');

## Ticket labels - List must be in alphabetical order
ax.xaxis.set_ticklabels(['False','True'])
ax.yaxis.set_ticklabels(['False','True'])

## Display the visualization of the Confusion Matrix.
plt.show()

Output

Seaborn Confusion Matrix
Confusion Matrix With Labels

This is how you can create a confusion matrix for the binary classification machine learning model.

Next, you’ll learn about creating a confusion matrix for a classification model with multiple output classes.

Creating Classification Model For Multiple Classes

In this section, you’ll create a classification model for multiple output classes. In other words, it’s also called multivariate classes.

You’ll be using the iris dataset available in the sklearn dataset library.

It contains a total number of 150 data rows. Each row includes four numeric features and one output class. Output class can be any of one Iris flower type. Namely, Iris Setosa, Iris Versicolour, Iris Virginica.

To create the model, you’ll load the sklearn dataset, split it into train and testing set and fit the train data into the KNeighborsClassifier model.

After creating the model, you can use the test data to predict the values and check how the model is performing.

You can use the actual output classes from your test data and the predicted output returned by the predict() method to plot the confusion matrix and evaluate the model accuracy.

Use the below snippet to create the model.

Snippet

import numpy as np
from sklearn.datasets import load_iris
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
from sklearn.neighbors import KNeighborsClassifier as KNN
iris = load_iris()
X = iris.data
y = iris.target
# Split dataset into train and test
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, y, test_size = 0.4, random_state = 42)
knn = KNN(n_neighbors = 3)
# train th model
knn.fit(X_train, y_train)
print('Model is Created')

Output

    Model is Created

Now the model is created.

Use the test data from the train test split and predict the output value using the predict() method as shown below.

Snippet

y_pred = knn.predict(X_test)

y_pred

You’ll have the predicted output as an array. The value 0, 1, 2 shows the predicted category of the test data.

Output

    array([1, 0, 2, 1, 1, 0, 1, 2, 1, 1, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 2, 1, 1, 2, 0, 2,
           0, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 2, 1, 0, 0, 0, 2, 1, 1, 0,
           0, 1, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 0, 2, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1])

Now, you can use the predicted data available in y_pred to create a confusion matrix for multiple classes.

Plot Confusion matrix for Multiple Classes

In this section, you’ll learn how to plot a confusion matrix for multiple classes.

You can use the confusion_matrix() method available in the sklearn library to create a confusion matrix. It’ll contain three rows and columns representing the actual flower category and the predicted flower category in ascending order.

Snippet

from sklearn.metrics import confusion_matrix

#Get the confusion matrix
cf_matrix = confusion_matrix(y_test, y_pred)

print(cf_matrix)

Output

    [[23  0  0]
     [ 0 19  0]
     [ 0  1 17]]

The below output shows the confusion matrix for actual and predicted flower category counts.

You can use this matrix to plot the confusion matrix using the seaborn library, as shown below.

Snippet

import seaborn as sns
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

ax = sns.heatmap(cf_matrix, annot=True, cmap='Blues')

ax.set_title('Seaborn Confusion Matrix with labelsnn');
ax.set_xlabel('nPredicted Flower Category')
ax.set_ylabel('Actual Flower Category ');

## Ticket labels - List must be in alphabetical order
ax.xaxis.set_ticklabels(['Setosa','Versicolor', 'Virginia'])
ax.yaxis.set_ticklabels(['Setosa','Versicolor', 'Virginia'])

## Display the visualization of the Confusion Matrix.
plt.show()

Output

confusion matrix with Labels for multivariate models

Plot Confusion Matrix for Multiple Classes With Percentage

In this section, you’ll plot the confusion matrix for multiple classes with the percentage of each output class. You can calculate the percentage by dividing the values in the confusion matrix by the sum of all values.

Use the below snippet to plot the confusion matrix for multiple classes with percentages.

Snippet

ax = sns.heatmap(cf_matrix/np.sum(cf_matrix), annot=True, 
            fmt='.2%', cmap='Blues')

ax.set_title('Seaborn Confusion Matrix with labelsnn');
ax.set_xlabel('nPredicted Flower Category')
ax.set_ylabel('Actual Flower Category ');

ax.yaxis.set_ticklabels(['Setosa','Versicolor', 'Virginia'])

## Display the visualization of the Confusion Matrix.
plt.show()

Output

Plot Confusion Matrix for Multiple Classes With Numbers And Percentages

In this section, you’ll learn how to plot a confusion matrix with labels, counts, and percentages for the multiple classes.

You can use this to measure the percentage of each label. For example, how much percentage of the predictions belong to each category of flowers.

For this, first, you need to create a list of labels, then count each label in one list and measure the percentage of the labels in another list.

Then you can zip these different lists to create concatenated labels. Zipping means concatenating an item from each list and create one list. Then, this list must be converted into an array using the np.asarray() method.

This final array must be passed to annot attribute. This will create a confusion matrix with the label, count, and percentage information for each category of flowers.

Use the below snippet to visualize the confusion matrix with all the details.

Snippet

#group_names = ['True Neg','False Pos','False Neg','True Pos','True Pos','True Pos','True Pos','True Pos','True Pos']

group_counts = ["{0:0.0f}".format(value) for value in
                cf_matrix.flatten()]

group_percentages = ["{0:.2%}".format(value) for value in
                     cf_matrix.flatten()/np.sum(cf_matrix)]

labels = [f"{v1}n{v2}n" for v1, v2 in
          zip(group_counts,group_percentages)]

labels = np.asarray(labels).reshape(3,3)

ax = sns.heatmap(cf_matrix, annot=labels, fmt='', cmap='Blues')

ax.set_title('Seaborn Confusion Matrix with labelsnn');
ax.set_xlabel('nPredicted Flower Category')
ax.set_ylabel('Actual Flower Category ');

## Ticket labels - List must be in alphabetical order

Understanding a Confusion Matrix

A confusion matrix, also known as an error matrix, is a powerful tool used to evaluate the performance of classification models. The matrix is a tabular format that shows predicted values against their actual values.

This allows us to understand whether the model is performing well or not. Similarly, it allows you to identify where the model is making mistakes.

Definition and Explanation of a Confusion Matrix

A confusion matrix is a table that displays the number of correct and incorrect predictions made by a classification model. The table is presented in such a way that:

  • The rows represent the instances of the actual class, and
  • The columns represent the instances of the predicted class.

Take a look at the visualization below to see what a simple confusion matrix looks like:

Understanding a Confusion Matrix in Python

Let’s break down what these sections of a confusion matrix mean.

Components of a Confusion Matrix

Similar to the image above, a confusion matrix is made up of four main components:

  • True Positives (TP): instances where the model correctly predicted the positive class.
  • True Negatives (TN): instances where the model correctly predicted the negative class.
  • False Positives (FP): instances where the model incorrectly predicted the positive class (also known as Type I error).
  • False Negatives (FN): instances where the model incorrectly predicted the negative class (also known as Type II error).

Labelling a Confusion Matrix in Python

Understanding a Multi-Class Confusion Matrix

So far, we have discussed confusion matrices in the context of binary classification problems. This means that the model predicts something to either be one thing or not.

However, confusion matrices can also be used for multi-class classification problems, where there are more than two classes to predict. In this section, you’ll learn about the concept of multi-class confusion matrices and understand their components and differences from binary confusion matrices.

A multi-class confusion matrix builds on a simple, binary confusion matrix, designed to evaluate the performance of classification models with more than two classes. A multi-class confusion matrix is an n x n table, where n represents the number of classes in the problem.

Each row of the matrix corresponds to the instances of the actual class, and each column corresponds to the instances of the predicted class.

Understanding a Multi-Class Confusion Matrix in Python

Components of a Multi-Class Confusion Matrix

A multi-class confusion matrix is different from a binary confusion matrix. Let’s explore how this is different:

  • Diagonal elements: values along the diagonal represent the number of instances where the model correctly predicted the class. They are equivalent to True Positives (TP) in the binary case, but for each class.
  • Off-diagonal elements: all values that aren’t on the diagonal represent the number of instances where the model incorrectly predicted the class. They correspond to False Positives (FP) and False Negatives (FN) in the binary case, but for each combination of classes.

In a multi-class confusion matrix, the sum of all diagonal elements gives the total number of correct predictions, and the sum of all off-diagonal elements gives the total number of incorrect predictions.

Differences and Similarities Between Binary and Multi-Class Confusion Matrices

While binary and multi-class confusion matrices serve the same purpose of evaluating classification models, there are some key differences and similarities between them:

  • Structure: a binary confusion matrix is a 2 x 2 table, whereas a multi-class confusion matrix is a n x n table, where n is the number of classes.
  • Components of a confusion matrix: Both binary and multi-class confusion matrices have diagonal elements representing correct predictions. Similarly, the off-diagonal elements represent incorrect predictions. However, in the multi-class case, there are multiple True Positives, False Positives, and False Negatives for each combination of classes.

Knowing how to work with both binary and multi-class confusion matrices will be essential in evaluating different types of machine learning models.

Importance of Using a Confusion Matrix for Classification Problems

A confusion matrix is useful for evaluating classification models by allowing you to understand the types of errors that a model is making. In particular, a classification matrix allows you to identify if a model is biased toward a particular class. Similarly, it allows you to better understand if a model is either too sensitive or too conservative.

How to Interpret a Confusion Matrix

Understanding the components of a confusion matrix is just the first step. In this section, you will learn how to interpret a confusion matrix. You’ll also learn how to calculate different performance metrics that can help us make informed decisions about your classification model.

Understanding the Components of a Confusion Matrix

As you learned earlier, a confusion matrix consists of four components: True Positives, True Negatives, False Positives, and False Negatives. To interpret a confusion matrix, we can examine these components and understand how they relate to the model’s performance.

Labelling a Confusion Matrix in Python

Calculating Performance Metrics Using a Confusion Matrix

The values of a confusion matrix allow you to calculate a number of different performance metrics, including accuracy, precision, recall, and the F1 score. Let’s break these down a little bit more:

  • Accuracy: The ratio of correct predictions (TP + TN) to the total number of predictions (TP + TN + FP + FN).
  • Precision: The ratio of true positive predictions (TP) to the total number of positive predictions (TP + FP).
  • Recall (Sensitivity): The ratio of true positive predictions (TP) to the total number of actual positive instances (TP + FN).
  • F1 Score: The harmonic mean of precision and recall, which provides a balanced measure of the model’s performance.

Analyzing the Results and Making Informed Decisions

By calculating the performance metrics above, you’ll be able to better analyze how well your model is performing. By understanding the confusion matrix and the performance metrics, we can make informed decisions about our model, such as adjusting the classification threshold, balancing the dataset, or selecting a different algorithm to improve its performance.

For example, a model that shows high accuracy might indicate that the model is performing well. On the other hand, a model that has low precision or recall can indicate that a model may have issues in identifying classes correctly.

Creating a Confusion Matrix in Python

Now that you have learned how confusion matrices are valuable tools for evaluating classification problems in machine learning, let’s dive into how to create them using Python with sklearn. Sklearn is an invaluable tool for creating machine-learning models in Python.

Dataset Preparation and Model Training

For the purposes of this tutorial, we’ll be creating a confusion matrix using the sklearn breast cancer dataset, which identifies whether a tumor is malignant or benign. We won’t go through the model selection, creation, or prediction process in this tutorial. However, we’ll set up the baseline model so that we can create the confusion matrix.

# Loading a Binary Classification Model in Sklearn
from sklearn.datasets import load_breast_cancer
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
from sklearn.linear_model import LogisticRegression
from sklearn.metrics import confusion_matrix

data = load_breast_cancer()
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(data.data, data.target, test_size=0.2, random_state=42)
model = LogisticRegression()
model.fit(X_train, y_train)
y_pred = model.predict(X_test)

In the code block above, we imported a number of different functions and classes from Sklearn. In particular, we followed best practices by splitting our dataset into training and testing datasets using the train_test_split function.

Generating a Confusion Matrix Using Sklearn

Now that we have a model created, we can build our first confusion matrix. Let’s take a look at the function and see what parameters it offers. The sklearn.metrics.confusion_matrix is a function that computes a confusion matrix and has the following parameters:

  • y_true: true labels for the test data.
  • y_pred: predicted labels for the test data.
  • labels: optional, list of labels to index the matrix. This may be used to reorder or select a subset of labels. If None is given, all labels are used.
  • sample_weight: optional, sample weights.
  • normalize: If set to ‘true’, the rows of the confusion matrix are normalized so that they sum up to 1. If set to ‘pred’, the columns of the confusion matrix are normalized so that they sum up to 1. If set to ‘all’, all values in the confusion matrix are normalized so that they sum up to 1. If set to None, no normalization is performed (default).

The only required parameters are the y_true and y_pred parameters. We created these in our previous code block. Let’s see how we can create our first confusion matrix:

# Create a confusion matrix
print(confusion_matrix(y_test, y_pred))

# Returns:
# [[37  3]
#  [ 1 73]]

In this example, there were:

  • 37 true positives (i.e., cases where the model correctly predicted that the patient had breast cancer),
  • 3 false positives (i.e., cases where the model incorrectly predicted that the patient had breast cancer),
  • 1 false negative (i.e., a case where the model incorrectly predicted that the patient did not have breast cancer), and
  • 73 true negatives (i.e., cases where the model correctly predicted that the patient did not have breast cancer).

Let’s now take a look at how we can interpret the generated confusion matrix.

Interpreting the Generated Confusion Matrix

The way in which you interpret a confusion matrix is determined by how accurate your model needs to be. For example, in our example, we are predicting whether or not someone has cancer. In these cases, the accuracy of our model is incredibly important. Even infrequent misclassifications can have significant impacts.

On the other hand, working with datasets with less profound consequences, there may be a larger margin for error. In my experience, it’s important to focus on truly understand the sensitivity and importance of misclassifications.

We can use Sklearn to calculate the accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 scores to help interpret our confusion matrix. Let’s see how we can do this in Python using sklearn:

from sklearn.metrics import accuracy_score, precision_score, recall_score, f1_score

# Calculate the accuracy
accuracy = accuracy_score(y_test, y_pred)

# Calculate the precision
precision = precision_score(y_test, y_pred)

# Calculate the recall
recall = recall_score(y_test, y_pred)

# Calculate the f1 score
f1 = f1_score(y_test, y_pred)

# Print the results
print("Accuracy:", accuracy)
print("Precision:", precision)
print("Recall:", recall)
print("F1 Score:", f1)

# Returns:
# Accuracy: 0.956140350877193
# Precision: 0.9459459459459459
# Recall: 0.9859154929577465
# F1 Score: 0.9655172413793103

Recall that these scores represent the following:

  • Accuracy: The ratio of correct predictions (TP + TN) to the total number of predictions (TP + TN + FP + FN).
  • Precision: The ratio of true positive predictions (TP) to the total number of positive predictions (TP + FP).
  • Recall (Sensitivity): The ratio of true positive predictions (TP) to the total number of actual positive instances (TP + FN).
  • F1 Score: The harmonic mean of precision and recall, which provides a balanced measure of the model’s performance.

We can simplify printing these values even further by using the sklearn classification_report function, which takes the true and predicted values as input:

# Using classification_report to Print Scores
from sklearn.metrics import classification_report
print(classification_report(y_test, y_pred))

# Returns:
#               precision    recall  f1-score   support

#            0       0.97      0.91      0.94        43
#            1       0.95      0.99      0.97        71

#     accuracy                           0.96       114
#    macro avg       0.96      0.95      0.95       114
# weighted avg       0.96      0.96      0.96       114

Finally, let’s take a look at how we can visualize the confusion matrix in Python, using Seaborn.

Visualizing a Confusion Matrix in Python

Sklearn provides a helpful class to help visualize a confusion matrix. While other tutorials will point you to the plot_confusion_matrix function, this function was recently deprecated. Because of this, it’s important to use the ConfusionMatrixDisplay class.

The ConfusionMatrixDisplay class lets you pass in a confusion matrix and the labels of your classes. You can then visualize the matrix by applying the .plot() method to your object. Take a look at what this looks like below:

# Plotting a Confusion Matrix with Sklearn
from sklearn.metrics import ConfusionMatrixDisplay
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

conf_matrix = confusion_matrix(y_true=y_test, y_pred=y_pred)
vis = ConfusionMatrixDisplay(confusion_matrix=conf_matrix, display_labels=model.classes_)
vis.plot()
plt.show()

In the code block above, we passed our confusion matrix into the ConfusionMatrixDisplay class constructor. We also included our display labels by accessing the classes. Finally, we applied the .plot() method and used the Matplotlib show() function to visualize the image below:

Visualizing a Confusion Matrix with ConfusionMatrixDisplay

In the following section, you’ll learn how to plot a confusion matrix using Seaborn.

Using Seaborn to Plot a Confusion Matrix

Seaborn is a helpful Python data visualization library built on top of Matplotlib. Its mission is to make hard things easy, allowing you to create complex visualizations using a simple API.

Plotting a confusion matrix is similar to plotting a heatmap in Seaborn, indicating where values are higher or lower visually. In order to do this, let’s plot a confusion matrix for another model, where we have more than a binary class.

If you’re unfamiliar with KNN in Python using Sklearn, you can follow along with the tutorial link here. That said, the end result of the code block is a model with three classes, rather than two:

# Creating a Model with 3 Classes
from sklearn.neighbors import KNeighborsClassifier
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
from sklearn.metrics import confusion_matrix
import seaborn as sns
df = sns.load_dataset('penguins')
df = df.dropna()

X = df.drop(columns = ['species', 'sex', 'island'])
y = df['species']

X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, y, random_state = 100)
clf = KNeighborsClassifier(p=1)
clf.fit(X_train, y_train)
predictions = clf.predict(X_test)

In the code block above, we created a model that predicts three different classes. In order to plot the confusion matrix for this model, we can use the code below:

# Plotting a Confusion Matrix in Seaborn
conf_matrix = confusion_matrix(y_test, predictions, labels=clf.classes_)
sns.heatmap(conf_matrix,
            annot=True,
            fmt='g',
            xticklabels=clf.classes_,
            yticklabels=clf.classes_,
    )
plt.ylabel('Prediction',fontsize=13)
plt.xlabel('Actual',fontsize=13)
plt.title('Confusion Matrix',fontsize=17)
plt.show()

In the code block above, we used the heatmap function in Seaborn to plot our confusion matrix. We also modified the labels and titles using special functions.

This returned the following image:

Confusion Matrix in Seaborn

We can see that this returns an image very similar to the Sklearn one. One benefit of this approach is how declarative and familiar it is. If you’re familiar with Seaborn or matplotlib, customizing the confusion matrix is quite simple.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a confusion matrix in Python?

A confusion matrix in Python is a table that displays the number of correct and incorrect predictions made by a classification model. It helps in evaluating the performance of the model by comparing its predictions against the actual values. Python libraries like sklearn provide functions to create and visualize confusion matrices, making it easier to analyze and interpret the results.

What does a confusion matrix tell you?

A confusion matrix tells you how well a classification model is performing by showing the number of correct and incorrect predictions. It highlights the instances where the model correctly predicted the positive and negative classes (True Positives and True Negatives) and the instances where the model incorrectly predicted the positive and negative classes (False Positives and False Negatives). By analyzing the confusion matrix, you can identify the types of errors the model is making, and make informed decisions to improve its performance.

How can you use Sklearn confusion_matrix?

The sklearn library provides a function called confusion_matrix that can be used to create a confusion matrix for a classification model. To use it, you need to pass the true labels (y_true) and the predicted labels (y_pred) as arguments. The function returns a confusion matrix that can be printed or visualized using other libraries like matplotlib or Seaborn.

Can you use a confusion matrix for multi-class classification problems?

Yes, you can use a confusion matrix for multi-class classification problems. In the case of multi-class classification, the confusion matrix is an n x n table, where n represents the number of classes. Each row corresponds to the instances of the actual class, and each column corresponds to the instances of the predicted class. The diagonal elements represent correct predictions, while the off-diagonal elements represent incorrect predictions. The process of interpreting a multi-class confusion matrix is similar to that of a binary confusion matrix, with the main difference being the presence of multiple classes.

Conclusion

In this tutorial, we have explored the concept of confusion matrices and their importance in evaluating the performance of classification models. We’ve learned about the components of binary and multi-class confusion matrices, how to interpret them, and how to calculate various performance metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score. Additionally, we’ve demonstrated how to create and visualize confusion matrices in Python using sklearn and Seaborn.

As you continue to work on machine learning projects, understanding and utilizing confusion matrices will be an invaluable skill in assessing the performance of your classification models. By identifying the types of errors a model makes, you can make informed decisions to improve its performance, such as adjusting the classification threshold, balancing the dataset, or selecting a different algorithm. Keep practicing and experimenting with confusion matrices, and you’ll be well-equipped to tackle the challenges of evaluating classification models in your future projects.

Example of confusion matrix usage to evaluate the quality
of the output of a classifier on the iris data set. The
diagonal elements represent the number of points for which
the predicted label is equal to the true label, while
off-diagonal elements are those that are mislabeled by the
classifier. The higher the diagonal values of the confusion
matrix the better, indicating many correct predictions.

The figures show the confusion matrix with and without
normalization by class support size (number of elements
in each class). This kind of normalization can be
interesting in case of class imbalance to have a more
visual interpretation of which class is being misclassified.

Here the results are not as good as they could be as our
choice for the regularization parameter C was not the best.
In real life applications this parameter is usually chosen
using Tuning the hyper-parameters of an estimator.

Plot Confusion Matrix in Python

This article will discuss plotting a confusion matrix in Python using different library packages.

Use Matplotlib to Plot Confusion Matrix in Python

This program represents how we can plot the confusion matrix using Matplotlib.

Below are the two library packages we need to plot our confusion matrix.

from sklearn.metrics import confusion_matrix
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

After importing the necessary packages, we need to create the confusion matrix from the given data.

First, we declare the variables y_true and y_pred. y-true is filled with the actual values while y-pred is filled with the predicted values.

y_true = ["bat", "ball", "ball", "bat", "bat", "bat"]
y_pred = ["bat", "bat", "ball", "ball", "bat", "bat"]

We then declare a variable mat_con to store the matrix. Below is the syntax we will use to create the confusion matrix.

mat_con = (confusion_matrix(y_true, y_pred, labels=["bat", "ball"]))

It tells the program to create a confusion matrix with the two parameters, y_true and y_pred. labels tells the program that the confusion matrix will be made with two input values, bat and ball.

To plot a confusion matrix, we also need to indicate the attributes required to direct the program in creating a plot.

fig, px = plt.subplots(figsize=(7.5, 7.5))
px.matshow(mat_con, cmap=plt.cm.YlOrRd, alpha=0.5)

plt.subplots() creates an empty plot px in the system, while figsize=(7.5, 7.5) decides the x and y length of the output window. An equal x and y value will display your plot on a perfectly squared window.

px.matshow is used to fill our confusion matrix in the empty plot, whereas the cmap=plt.cm.YlOrRd directs the program to fill the columns with yellow-red gradients.

alpha=0.5 is used to decide the depth of gradient or how dark the yellow and red are.

Then, we run a nested loop to plot our confusion matrix in a 2X2 format.

for m in range(mat_con.shape[0]):
    for n in range(mat_con.shape[1]):
        px.text(x=m,y=n,s=mat_con[m, n], va='center', ha='center', size='xx-large')

for m in range(mat_con.shape[0]): runs the loop for the number of rows, (shape[0] stands for number of rows). for n in range(mat_con.shape[1]): runs another loop inside the existing loop for the number of columns present.

px.text(x=m,y=n,s=mat_con[m, n], va='center', ha='center', size='xx-large') fills the confusion matrix plot with the rows and columns values.

In the final step, we use plt.xlabel() and plt.ylabel() to label the axes, and we put the title plot with the syntax plt.title().

plt.xlabel('Predictions', fontsize=16)
plt.ylabel('Actuals', fontsize=16)
plt.title('Confusion Matrix', fontsize=15)
plt.show()

Putting it all together, we generate the complete code below.

# imports
from sklearn.metrics import confusion_matrix
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

# creates confusion matrix
y_true = ["bat", "ball", "ball", "bat", "bat", "bat"]
y_pred = ["bat", "bat", "ball", "ball", "bat", "bat"]
mat_con = (confusion_matrix(y_true, y_pred, labels=["bat", "ball"]))

# Setting the attributes
fig, px = plt.subplots(figsize=(7.5, 7.5))
px.matshow(mat_con, cmap=plt.cm.YlOrRd, alpha=0.5)
for m in range(mat_con.shape[0]):
    for n in range(mat_con.shape[1]):
        px.text(x=m,y=n,s=mat_con[m, n], va='center', ha='center', size='xx-large')

# Sets the labels
plt.xlabel('Predictions', fontsize=16)
plt.ylabel('Actuals', fontsize=16)
plt.title('Confusion Matrix', fontsize=15)
plt.show()

Output:

Confusion Matrix Plot Using Matplotlib in Python

Use Seaborn to Plot Confusion Matrix in Python

Using Seaborn allows us to create different-looking plots without dwelling much into attributes or the need to create nested loops.

Below is the library package needed to plot our confusion matrix.

As represented in the previous program, we would be creating a confusion matrix using the confusion_matrix() method.

To create the plot, we will be using the syntax below.

fx = sebrn.heatmap(conf_matrix, annot=True, cmap='turbo')

We used the seaborn heatmap plot. annot=True fills the plot with data; a False value would result in a plot with no values.

cmap='turbo' stands for the color shading; we can choose from tens of different shading for our plot.

The code below will label our axes and set the title.

fx.set_title('Plotting Confusion Matrix using Seabornnn');
fx.set_xlabel('nValues model predicted')
fx.set_ylabel('True Values ');

Lastly, we label the boxes with the following syntax. This step is optional, but not using it will decrease the visible logic clarity of the matrix.

fx.xaxis.set_ticklabels(['False','True'])
fx.yaxis.set_ticklabels(['False','True']

Let’s put everything together into a working program.

# imports
import seaborn as sebrn
from sklearn.metrics import confusion_matrix
import matplotlib.pyplot as atlas

y_true = ["bat", "ball", "ball", "bat", "bat", "bat"]
y_pred = ["bat", "bat", "ball", "ball", "bat", "bat"]
conf_matrix = (confusion_matrix(y_true, y_pred, labels=["bat", "ball"]))

# Using Seaborn heatmap to create the plot
fx = sebrn.heatmap(conf_matrix, annot=True, cmap='turbo')

# labels the title and x, y axis of plot
fx.set_title('Plotting Confusion Matrix using Seabornnn');
fx.set_xlabel('Predicted Values')
fx.set_ylabel('Actual Values ');

# labels the boxes
fx.xaxis.set_ticklabels(['False','True'])
fx.yaxis.set_ticklabels(['False','True'])

atlas.show()

Output:

Use Pretty Confusion Matrix to Plot Confusion Matrix in Python

The Pretty Confusion Matrix is a Python library created to plot a stunning confusion matrix filled with lots of data related to metrics. This python library is useful when creating a highly detailed confusion matrix for your data sets.

In the below program, we plotted a confusion matrix using two sets of arrays: true_values and predicted_values. As we can see, plotting through Pretty Confusion Matrix is relatively simple than other plotting libraries.

from pretty_confusion_matrix import pp_matrix_from_data

true_values = [1,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,0,1]
predicted_values = [1,0,0,1,0,1,0,0,1,1]

cmap = 'PuRd'
pp_matrix_from_data(true_values, predicted_values)

Output:

Confusion Matrix Plot Using Pretty Confusion Matrix in Python

Visualizations play an essential role in the exploratory data analysis activity of machine learning.

You can plot confusion matrix using the confusion_matrix() method from sklearn.metrics package.

Why Confusion Matrix?

After creating a machine learning model, accuracy is a metric used to evaluate the machine learning model. On the other hand, you cannot use accuracy in every case as it’ll be misleading. Because the accuracy of 99% may look good as a percentage, but consider a machine learning model used for Fraud Detection or Drug consumption detection.

In such critical scenarios, the 1% percentage failure can create a significant impact.

For example, if a model predicted a fraud transaction of 10000$ as Not Fraud, then it is not a good model and cannot be used in production.

In the drug consumption model, consider if the model predicted that the person had consumed the drug but actually has not. But due to the False prediction of the model, the person may be imprisoned for a crime that is not committed actually.

In such scenarios, you need a better metric than accuracy to validate the machine learning model.
This is where the confusion matrix comes into the picture.

In this tutorial, you’ll learn what a confusion matrix is, how to plot confusion matrix for the binary classification model and the multivariate classification model.

What is Confusion Matrix?

Confusion matrix is a matrix that allows you to visualize the performance of the classification machine learning models. With this visualization, you can get a better idea of how your machine learning model is performing.

Creating Binary Class Classification Model

In this section, you’ll create a classification model that will predict whether a patient has breast cancer or not, denoted by output classes True or False.

The breast cancer dataset is available in the sklearn dataset library.

It contains a total number of 569 data rows. Each row includes 30 numeric features and one output class. If you want to manipulate or visualize the sklearn dataset, you can convert it into pandas dataframe and play around with the pandas dataframe functionalities.

To create the model, you’ll load the sklearn dataset, split it into train and testing set and fit the train data into the KNeighborsClassifier model.

After creating the model, you can use the test data to predict the values and check how the model is performing.

You can use the actual output classes from your test data and the predicted output returned by the predict() method to plot the confusion matrix and evaluate the model accuracy.

Use the below snippet to create the model.

Snippet

import numpy as np

from sklearn.datasets import load_breast_cancer
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
from sklearn.neighbors import KNeighborsClassifier as KNN

breastCancer = load_breast_cancer()

X = breastCancer.data
y = breastCancer.target

# Split the dataset into train and test
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, y, test_size = 0.4, random_state = 42)

knn = KNN(n_neighbors = 3)

# train the model
knn.fit(X_train, y_train)

print('Model is Created')

The KNeighborsClassifier model is created for the breast cancer training data.

Output

    Model is Created

To test the model created, you can use the test data obtained from the train test split and predict the output. Then, you’ll have the predicted values.

Snippet

y_pred = knn.predict(X_test)

y_pred

           1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1,

           0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1,
           0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1])

Now use the predicted classes and the actual output classes from the test data to visualize the confusion matrix.

You’ll learn how to plot the confusion matrix for the binary classification model in the next section.

Plot Confusion Matrix for Binary Classes

You can create the confusion matrix using the confusion_matrix() method from sklearn.metrics package. The confusion_matrix() method will give you an array that depicts the True Positives, False Positives, False Negatives, and True negatives.

** Snippet**

from sklearn.metrics import confusion_matrix

#Generate the confusion matrix
cf_matrix = confusion_matrix(y_test, y_pred)

print(cf_matrix)

Output

    [[ 73   7]
     [  7 141]]

Once you have the confusion matrix created, you can use the heatmap() method available in the seaborn library to plot the confusion matrix.

Seaborn heatmap() method accepts one mandatory parameter and few other optional parameters.

  • data – A rectangular dataset that can be coerced into a 2d array. Here, you can pass the confusion matrix you already have
  • annot=True – To write the data value in the cell of the printed matrix. By default, this is False.
  • cmap=Blues – This is to denote the matplotlib color map names. Here, we’ve created the plot using the blue color shades.

The heatmap() method returns the matplotlib axes that can be stored in a variable. Here, you’ll store in variable ax. Now, you can set title, x-axis and y-axis labels and tick labels for x-axis and y-axis.

  • Title – Used to label the complete image. Use the set_title() method to set the title.
  • Axes-labels – Used to name the x axis or y axis. Use the set_xlabel() to set the x-axis label and set_ylabel() to set the y-axis label.
  • Tick labels – Used to denote the datapoints on the axes. You can pass the tick labels in an array, and it must be in ascending order. Because the confusion matrix contains the values in the ascending order format. Use the xaxis.set_ticklabels() to set the tick labels for x-axis and yaxis.set_ticklabels() to set the tick labels for y-axis.

Finally, use the plot.show() method to plot the confusion matrix.

Use the below snippet to create a confusion matrix, set title and labels for the axis, and set the tick labels, and plot it.

Snippet

import seaborn as sns

ax = sns.heatmap(cf_matrix, annot=True, cmap='Blues')

ax.set_title('Seaborn Confusion Matrix with labelsnn');
ax.set_xlabel('nPredicted Values')
ax.set_ylabel('Actual Values ');

## Ticket labels - List must be in alphabetical order
ax.xaxis.set_ticklabels(['False','True'])
ax.yaxis.set_ticklabels(['False','True'])

## Display the visualization of the Confusion Matrix.
plt.show()

Output

Confusion Matrix With labels

Seaborn Confusion Matrix With Labels

Alternatively, you can also plot the confusion matrix using the ConfusionMatrixDisplay.from_predictions() method available in the sklearn library itself if you want to avoid using the seaborn.

Next, you’ll learn how to plot a confusion matrix with percentages.

Plot Confusion Matrix for Binary Classes With Percentage

The objective of creating and plotting the confusion matrix is to check the accuracy of the machine learning model. It’ll be good to visualize the accuracy with percentages rather than using just the number. In this section, you’ll learn how to plot a confusion matrix for binary classes with percentages.

To plot the confusion matrix with percentages, first, you need to calculate the percentage of True Positives, False Positives, False Negatives, and True negatives. You can calculate the percentage of these values by dividing the value by the sum of all values.

Using the np.sum() method, you can sum all values in the confusion matrix.

Then pass the percentage of each value as data to the heatmap() method by using the statement cf_matrix/np.sum(cf_matrix).

Use the below snippet to plot the confusion matrix with percentages.

Snippet

ax = sns.heatmap(cf_matrix/np.sum(cf_matrix), annot=True, 
            fmt='.2%', cmap='Blues')

ax.set_title('Seaborn Confusion Matrix with labelsnn');
ax.set_xlabel('nPredicted Values')
ax.set_ylabel('Actual Values ');

## Ticket labels - List must be in alphabetical order
ax.xaxis.set_ticklabels(['False','True'])
ax.yaxis.set_ticklabels(['False','True'])

## Display the visualization of the Confusion Matrix.
plt.show()

Output

Seaborn Confusion Matrix with Labels

Plot Confusion Matrix for Binary Classes With Labels

In this section, you’ll plot a confusion matrix for Binary classes with labels True Positives, False Positives, False Negatives, and True negatives.

You need to create a list of the labels and convert it into an array using the np.asarray() method with shape 2,2. Then, this array of labels must be passed to the attribute annot. This will plot the confusion matrix with the labels annotation.

Use the below snippet to plot the confusion matrix with labels.

Snippet

labels = ['True Neg','False Pos','False Neg','True Pos']

labels = np.asarray(labels).reshape(2,2)

ax = sns.heatmap(cf_matrix, annot=labels, fmt='', cmap='Blues')

ax.set_title('Seaborn Confusion Matrix with labelsnn');
ax.set_xlabel('nPredicted Values')
ax.set_ylabel('Actual Values ');

## Ticket labels - List must be in alphabetical order
ax.xaxis.set_ticklabels(['False','True'])
ax.yaxis.set_ticklabels(['False','True'])

## Display the visualization of the Confusion Matrix.

Confusion Matrix With Labels

Plot Confusion Matrix for Binary Classes With Labels And Percentages

In this section, you’ll learn how to plot a confusion matrix with labels, counts, and percentages.

You can use this to measure the percentage of each label. For example, how much percentage of the predictions are True Positives, False Positives, False Negatives, and True negatives

For this, first, you need to create a list of labels, then count each label in one list and measure the percentage of the labels in another list.

Then you can zip these different lists to create labels. Zipping means concatenating an item from each list and create one list. Then, this list must be converted into an array using the np.asarray() method.

Then pass the final array to annot attribute. This will create a confusion matrix with the label, count, and percentage information for each class.

Use the below snippet to visualize the confusion matrix with all the details.

Snippet

group_names = ['True Neg','False Pos','False Neg','True Pos']

group_counts = ["{0:0.0f}".format(value) for value in
                cf_matrix.flatten()]

group_percentages = ["{0:.2%}".format(value) for value in
                     cf_matrix.flatten()/np.sum(cf_matrix)]

labels = [f"{v1}n{v2}n{v3}" for v1, v2, v3 in
          zip(group_names,group_counts,group_percentages)]

labels = np.asarray(labels).reshape(2,2)

ax = sns.heatmap(cf_matrix, annot=labels, fmt='', cmap='Blues')

ax.set_title('Seaborn Confusion Matrix with labelsnn');
ax.set_xlabel('nPredicted Values')
ax.set_ylabel('Actual Values ');

## Ticket labels - List must be in alphabetical order
ax.xaxis.set_ticklabels(['False','True'])
ax.yaxis.set_ticklabels(['False','True'])

## Display the visualization of the Confusion Matrix.

Confusion Matrix With Labels

This is how you can create a confusion matrix for the binary classification machine learning model.

Next, you’ll learn about creating a confusion matrix for a classification model with multiple output classes.

Creating Classification Model For Multiple Classes

In this section, you’ll create a classification model for multiple output classes. In other words, it’s also called multivariate classes.

You’ll be using the iris dataset available in the sklearn dataset library.

It contains a total number of 150 data rows. Each row includes four numeric features and one output class. Output class can be any of one Iris flower type. Namely, Iris Setosa, Iris Versicolour, Iris Virginica.

To create the model, you’ll load the sklearn dataset, split it into train and testing set and fit the train data into the KNeighborsClassifier model.

After creating the model, you can use the test data to predict the values and check how the model is performing.

You can use the actual output classes from your test data and the predicted output returned by the predict() method to plot the confusion matrix and evaluate the model accuracy.

Use the below snippet to create the model.

Snippet

import numpy as np
from sklearn.datasets import load_iris
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
from sklearn.neighbors import KNeighborsClassifier as KNN
iris = load_iris()
X = iris.data
y = iris.target
# Split dataset into train and test
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, y, test_size = 0.4, random_state = 42)
knn = KNN(n_neighbors = 3)
# train th model
knn.fit(X_train, y_train)
print('Model is Created')

Output

    Model is Created

Now the model is created.

Use the test data from the train test split and predict the output value using the predict() method as shown below.

Snippet

y_pred = knn.predict(X_test)

y_pred

You’ll have the predicted output as an array. The value 0, 1, 2 shows the predicted category of the test data.

Output

    array([1, 0, 2, 1, 1, 0, 1, 2, 1, 1, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 2, 1, 1, 2, 0, 2,
           0, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 2, 1, 0, 0, 0, 2, 1, 1, 0,
           0, 1, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 0, 2, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1])

Now, you can use the predicted data available in y_pred to create a confusion matrix for multiple classes.

Plot Confusion matrix for Multiple Classes

In this section, you’ll learn how to plot a confusion matrix for multiple classes.

You can use the confusion_matrix() method available in the sklearn library to create a confusion matrix. It’ll contain three rows and columns representing the actual flower category and the predicted flower category in ascending order.

Snippet

from sklearn.metrics import confusion_matrix

#Get the confusion matrix
cf_matrix = confusion_matrix(y_test, y_pred)

print(cf_matrix)

Output

    [[23  0  0]
     [ 0 19  0]
     [ 0  1 17]]

The below output shows the confusion matrix for actual and predicted flower category counts.

You can use this matrix to plot the confusion matrix using the seaborn library, as shown below.

Snippet

import seaborn as sns
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

ax = sns.heatmap(cf_matrix, annot=True, cmap='Blues')

ax.set_title('Seaborn Confusion Matrix with labelsnn');
ax.set_xlabel('nPredicted Flower Category')
ax.set_ylabel('Actual Flower Category ');

## Ticket labels - List must be in alphabetical order
ax.xaxis.set_ticklabels(['Setosa','Versicolor', 'Virginia'])
ax.yaxis.set_ticklabels(['Setosa','Versicolor', 'Virginia'])

## Display the visualization of the Confusion Matrix.
plt.show()

Output

confusion matrix with Labels for multivariate models

Plot Confusion Matrix for Multiple Classes With Percentage

In this section, you’ll plot the confusion matrix for multiple classes with the percentage of each output class. You can calculate the percentage by dividing the values in the confusion matrix by the sum of all values.

Use the below snippet to plot the confusion matrix for multiple classes with percentages.

Snippet

ax = sns.heatmap(cf_matrix/np.sum(cf_matrix), annot=True, 
            fmt='.2%', cmap='Blues')

ax.set_title('Seaborn Confusion Matrix with labelsnn');
ax.set_xlabel('nPredicted Flower Category')
ax.set_ylabel('Actual Flower Category ');

## Ticket labels - List must be in alphabetical order
ax.xaxis.set_ticklabels(['Setosa','Versicolor', 'Virginia'])
ax.yaxis.set_ticklabels(['Setosa','Versicolor', 'Virginia'])

## Display the visualization of the Confusion Matrix.
plt.show()

Output

confusion matrix with percentages

Plot Confusion Matrix for Multiple Classes With Numbers And Percentages

In this section, you’ll learn how to plot a confusion matrix with labels, counts, and percentages for the multiple classes.

You can use this to measure the percentage of each label. For example, how much percentage of the predictions belong to each category of flowers.

For this, first, you need to create a list of labels, then count each label in one list and measure the percentage of the labels in another list.

Then you can zip these different lists to create concatenated labels. Zipping means concatenating an item from each list and create one list. Then, this list must be converted into an array using the np.asarray() method.

This final array must be passed to annot attribute. This will create a confusion matrix with the label, count, and percentage information for each category of flowers.

Use the below snippet to visualize the confusion matrix with all the details.

Snippet

#group_names = ['True Neg','False Pos','False Neg','True Pos','True Pos','True Pos','True Pos','True Pos','True Pos']

group_counts = ["{0:0.0f}".format(value) for value in
                cf_matrix.flatten()]

group_percentages = ["{0:.2%}".format(value) for value in
                     cf_matrix.flatten()/np.sum(cf_matrix)]

labels = [f"{v1}n{v2}n" for v1, v2 in
          zip(group_counts,group_percentages)]

labels = np.asarray(labels).reshape(3,3)

ax = sns.heatmap(cf_matrix, annot=labels, fmt='', cmap='Blues')

ax.set_title('Seaborn Confusion Matrix with labelsnn');
ax.set_xlabel('nPredicted Flower Category')
ax.set_ylabel('Actual Flower Category ');

## Ticket labels - List must be in alphabetical order
ax.xaxis.set_ticklabels(['Setosa','Versicolor', 'Virginia'])
ax.yaxis.set_ticklabels(['Setosa','Versicolor', 'Virginia'])

## Display the visualization of the Confusion Matrix.
plt.show()

Output

In this short tutorial, you’ll see a full example of a Confusion Matrix in Python.

Topics to be reviewed:

  • Creating a Confusion Matrix using pandas
  • Displaying the Confusion Matrix using seaborn
  • Getting additional stats via pandas_ml
  • Working with non-numeric data

Creating a Confusion Matrix in Python using Pandas

To start, here is the dataset to be used for the Confusion Matrix in Python:

y_actual y_predicted
1 1
0 1
0 0
1 1
0 0
1 1
0 1
0 0
1 1
0 0
1 0
0 0

You can then capture this data in Python by creating pandas DataFrame using this code:

import pandas as pd

data = {'y_actual':    [1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0],
        'y_predicted': [1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0]
        }

df = pd.DataFrame(data)
print(df)

This is how the data would look like once you run the code:

    y_actual  y_predicted
0          1            1
1          0            1
2          0            0
3          1            1
4          0            0
5          1            1
6          0            1
7          0            0
8          1            1
9          0            0
10         1            0
11         0            0

To create the Confusion Matrix using pandas, you’ll need to apply the pd.crosstab as follows:

confusion_matrix = pd.crosstab(df['y_actual'], df['y_predicted'], rownames=['Actual'], colnames=['Predicted'])
print (confusion_matrix)

And here is the full Python code to create the Confusion Matrix:

import pandas as pd

data = {'y_actual':    [1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0],
        'y_predicted': [1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0]
        }

df = pd.DataFrame(data)

confusion_matrix = pd.crosstab(df['y_actual'], df['y_predicted'], rownames=['Actual'], colnames=['Predicted'])
print(confusion_matrix)

Run the code and you’ll get the following matrix:

Predicted  0  1
Actual         
0          5  2
1          1  4

Displaying the Confusion Matrix using seaborn

The matrix you just created in the previous section was rather basic.

You can use the seaborn package in Python to get a more vivid display of the matrix. To accomplish this task, you’ll need to add the following two components into the code:

  • import seaborn as sn
  • sn.heatmap(confusion_matrix, annot=True)

You’ll also need to use the matplotlib package to plot the results by adding:

  • import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
  • plt.show()

Putting everything together:

import pandas as pd
import seaborn as sn
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

data = {'y_actual':    [1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0],
        'y_predicted': [1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0]
        }

df = pd.DataFrame(data)
confusion_matrix = pd.crosstab(df['y_actual'], df['y_predicted'], rownames=['Actual'], colnames=['Predicted'])

sn.heatmap(confusion_matrix, annot=True)
plt.show()

Optionally, you can also add the totals at the margins of the confusion matrix by setting margins=True.

So your Python code would look like this:

import pandas as pd
import seaborn as sn
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

data = {'y_actual':    [1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0],
        'y_predicted': [1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0]
        }

df = pd.DataFrame(data)
confusion_matrix = pd.crosstab(df['y_actual'], df['y_predicted'], rownames=['Actual'], colnames=['Predicted'], margins=True)

sn.heatmap(confusion_matrix, annot=True)
plt.show()

Getting additional stats using pandas_ml

You may print additional stats (such as the Accuracy) using the pandas_ml package in Python. You can install the pandas_ml package using PIP:

pip install pandas_ml

You’ll then need to add the following syntax into the code:

confusion_matrix = ConfusionMatrix(df['y_actual'], df['y_predicted'])
confusion_matrix.print_stats()

Here is the complete code that you can use to get the additional stats:

import pandas as pd
from pandas_ml import ConfusionMatrix

data = {'y_actual':    [1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0],
        'y_predicted': [1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0]
        }

df = pd.DataFrame(data)
confusion_matrix = ConfusionMatrix(df['y_actual'], df['y_predicted'])
confusion_matrix.print_stats()

Run the code, and you’ll see the measurements below (note that if you’re getting an error when running the code, you may consider changing the version of pandas. For example, you may change the version of pandas to 0.23.4 using this command: pip install pandas==0.23.4):

population: 12
P: 5
N: 7
PositiveTest: 6
NegativeTest: 6
TP: 4
TN: 5
FP: 2
FN: 1
ACC: 0.75

For our example:

  • TP = True Positives = 4
  • TN = True Negatives = 5
  • FP = False Positives = 2
  • FN = False Negatives = 1

You can also observe the TP, TN, FP and FN directly from the Confusion Matrix:

For a population of 12, the Accuracy is:

Accuracy = (TP+TN)/population = (4+5)/12 = 0.75

Working with non-numeric data

So far you have seen how to create a Confusion Matrix using numeric data. But what if your data is non-numeric?

For example, what if your data contained non-numeric values, such as ‘Yes’ and ‘No’ (rather than ‘1’ and ‘0’)?

In this case:

  • Yes = 1
  • No = 0

So the dataset would look like this:

y_actual y_predicted
Yes Yes
No Yes
No No
Yes Yes
No No
Yes Yes
No Yes
No No
Yes Yes
No No
Yes No
No No

You can then apply a simple mapping exercise to map ‘Yes’ to 1, and ‘No’ to 0.

Specifically, you’ll need to add the following portion to the code:

df['y_actual'] = df['y_actual'].map({'Yes': 1, 'No': 0})
df['y_predicted'] = df['y_predicted'].map({'Yes': 1, 'No': 0})

And this is how the complete Python code would look like:

import pandas as pd
from pandas_ml import ConfusionMatrix

data = {'y_actual':    ['Yes', 'No',  'No', 'Yes', 'No', 'Yes', 'No',  'No', 'Yes', 'No', 'Yes', 'No'],
        'y_predicted': ['Yes', 'Yes', 'No', 'Yes', 'No', 'Yes', 'Yes', 'No', 'Yes', 'No', 'No',  'No']    
        }

df = pd.DataFrame(data)
df['y_actual'] = df['y_actual'].map({'Yes': 1, 'No': 0})
df['y_predicted'] = df['y_predicted'].map({'Yes': 1, 'No': 0})

confusion_matrix = ConfusionMatrix(df['y_actual'], df['y_predicted'])
confusion_matrix.print_stats()

You would then get the same stats:

population: 12
P: 5
N: 7
PositiveTest: 6
NegativeTest: 6
TP: 4
TN: 5
FP: 2
FN: 1
ACC: 0.75

In this post, you will learn about how to draw / show confusion matrix using Matplotlib Python package. It is important to learn this technique as it will come very handy in assessing the machine learning model performance of classification models trained using different classification algorithms.

Confusion Matrix using Matplotlib

In order to demonstrate the confusion matrix using Matplotlib, let’s fit a pipeline estimator to the Sklearn breast cancer dataset using StandardScaler (for standardising the dataset) and Random Forest Classifier as the machine learning algorithm. 

from sklearn import datasets
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
from sklearn.preprocessing import StandardScaler
from sklearn.ensemble import RandomForestClassifier
from sklearn.pipeline import make_pipeline
#
# Load the breast cancer data set
#
bc = datasets.load_breast_cancer()
X = bc.data
y = bc.target
#
# Create training and test split
#
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, y, test_size=0.30, random_state=1, stratify=y)
#
# Create the pipeline
#
pipeline = make_pipeline(StandardScaler(), 
RandomForestClassifier(n_estimators=10, max_features=5, max_depth=2, random_state=1))
#
# Fit the Pipeline estimator
#
pipeline.fit(X_train, y_train)

Once an estimator is fit to the training data set, nest step is to print the confusion matrix. In order to do that, the following steps will need to be followed:

  • Get the predictions. Predict method on the instance of estimator (pipeline) is invoked.
  • Create the confusion matrix using actuals and predictions for the test dataset. The confusion_matrix method of sklearn.metrics is used to create the confusion matrix array.
  • Method matshow is used to print the confusion matrix box with different colors. In this example, the blue color is used. The method matshow is used to display an array as a matrix.
  • In addition to the usage of matshow method, it is also required to loop through the array to print the prediction outcome in different boxes.
#
# Get the predictions
#
y_pred = pipeline.predict(X_test)
#
# Calculate the confusion matrix
#
conf_matrix = confusion_matrix(y_true=y_test, y_pred=y_pred)
#
# Print the confusion matrix using Matplotlib
#
fig, ax = plt.subplots(figsize=(7.5, 7.5))
ax.matshow(conf_matrix, cmap=plt.cm.Blues, alpha=0.3)
for i in range(conf_matrix.shape[0]):
    for j in range(conf_matrix.shape[1]):
        ax.text(x=j, y=i,s=conf_matrix[i, j], va='center', ha='center', size='xx-large')

plt.xlabel('Predictions', fontsize=18)
plt.ylabel('Actuals', fontsize=18)
plt.title('Confusion Matrix', fontsize=18)
plt.show()

This is how the confusion matrix will look like:

Confusion Matrix using Mlxtend Package

Here is another package, mlxtend.plotting (by Dr. Sebastian Rashcka) which can be used to draw or show confusion matrix. It is much simpler and easy to use than drawing the confusion matrix in the earlier section. All you need to do is import the method, plot_confusion_matrix and pass the confusion matrix array to the parameter, conf_mat. The green color is used to create the show the confusion matrix.

from mlxtend.plotting import plot_confusion_matrix

fig, ax = plot_confusion_matrix(conf_mat=conf_matrix, figsize=(6, 6), cmap=plt.cm.Greens)
plt.xlabel('Predictions', fontsize=18)
plt.ylabel('Actuals', fontsize=18)
plt.title('Confusion Matrix', fontsize=18)
plt.show()

Here is how the confusion matrix will look like:

In this post I will demonstrate how to plot the Confusion Matrix. I will be using the confusion martrix from the Scikit-Learn library (sklearn.metrics) and Matplotlib for displaying the results in a more intuitive visual format.

The documentation for Confusion Matrix is pretty good, but I struggled to find a quick way to add labels and visualize the output into a 2×2 table.

For a good introductory read on confusion matrix check out this great post:

http://www.dataschool.io/simple-guide-to-confusion-matrix-terminology

This is a mockup of the look I am trying to achieve:

png

  • TN = True Negative
  • FN = False Negative
  • FP = False Positive
  • TP = True Positive

Let’s go through a quick Logistic Regression example using Scikit-Learn. For data I will use the popular Iris dataset (to read more about it reference https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iris_flower_data_set).

We will use the confusion matrix to evaluate the accuracy of the classification and plot it using matplotlib:

import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

from sklearn import datasets
data = datasets.load_iris()

df = pd.DataFrame(data.data, columns=data.feature_names)
df['Target'] = pd.DataFrame(data.target)
df.head()
    >>> output
   show first 5 rows 
sepal length (cm) sepal width (cm) petal length (cm) petal width (cm) Target  
5.1 3.5 1.4 0.2 0  
4.9 3.0 1.4 0.2 0  
4.7 3.2 1.3 0.2 0  
4.6 3.1 1.5 0.2 0  
5.0 3.6 1.4 0.2 0  

We can examine our data quickly using Pandas correlation function to pick a suitable feature for our logistic regression. We will use the default pearson method.

corr = df.corr()
print(corr.Target)
    >>> output
    sepal length (cm)    0.782561
    sepal width (cm)    -0.419446
    petal length (cm)    0.949043
    petal width (cm)     0.956464
    Target               1.000000
    Name: Target, dtype: float64

So, let’s pick the two with highest potential: Petal Width (cm) and Petal Lengthh (cm) as our (X) independent variables. For our Target/dependent variable (Y) we can pick the Versicolor class. The Target class actually has three choices, to simplify our task and narrow it down to a binary classifier I will pick Versicolor to narrow our classification classes to (0 or 1): either it is versicolor (1) or it is Not versicolor (0).

print(data.target_names)
    >>> output
    array(['setosa', 'versicolor', 'virginica'],
      dtype='<U10')

Let’s now create our X and Y:

x = df.iloc[0: ,3].reshape(-1,1)
y = (data.target == 1).astype(np.int) # we are picking Versicolor to be 1 and all other classes will be 0

We will split our data into a test and train sets, then start building our Logistic Regression model. We will use an 80/20 split.

from sklearn.cross_validation import train_test_split

x_train, x_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(x,y, test_size = 0.20, random_state = 0)

Before we create our classifier, we will need to normalize the data (feature scaling) using the utility function StandardScalar part of Scikit-Learn preprocessing package.

from sklearn.preprocessing import StandardScaler
sc_x = StandardScaler()
x_train = sc_x.fit_transform(x_train)
x_test = sc_x.transform(x_test)

Now we are ready to build our Logistic Classifier:

from sklearn.linear_model import LogisticRegression
logit = LogisticRegression(random_state= 0)
logit.fit(x_train, y_train)

y_predicted = logit.predict(x_test)

Now, let’s evaluate our classifier with the confusion matrix:

from sklearn.metrics import confusion_matrix

cm = confusion_matrix(y_test, y_predicted)
print(cm)
    >>> output
    [[15  2]
    [ 13 0]]

Visually the above doesn’t easily convey how is our classifier performing, but we mainly focus on the top right and bottom left (these are the errors or misclassifications).

The confusion matrix tells us we a have total of 15 (13 + 2) misclassified data out of the 30 test points (in terms of: Versicolor, or Not Versicolor). A better way to visualize this can be accomplished with the code below:

plt.clf()
plt.imshow(cm, interpolation='nearest', cmap=plt.cm.Wistia)
classNames = ['Negative','Positive']
plt.title('Versicolor or Not Versicolor Confusion Matrix - Test Data')
plt.ylabel('True label')
plt.xlabel('Predicted label')
tick_marks = np.arange(len(classNames))
plt.xticks(tick_marks, classNames, rotation=45)
plt.yticks(tick_marks, classNames)
s = [['TN','FP'], ['FN', 'TP']]
for i in range(2):
    for j in range(2):
        plt.text(j,i, str(s[i][j])+" = "+str(cm[i][j]))
plt.show()

png

To plot and display the decision boundary that separates the two classes (Versicolor or Not Versicolor ):

from matplotlib.colors import ListedColormap
plt.clf()
X_set, y_set = x_test, y_test
X1, X2 = np.meshgrid(np.arange(start = X_set[:, 0].min() - 1, stop = X_set[:, 0].max() + 1, step = 0.01),
                     np.arange(start = X_set[:, 1].min() - 1, stop = X_set[:, 1].max() + 1, step = 0.01))
plt.contourf(X1, X2, logit.predict(np.array([X1.ravel(), X2.ravel()]).T).reshape(X1.shape),
             alpha = 0.75, cmap = ListedColormap(('red', 'green')))
plt.xlim(X1.min(), X1.max())
plt.ylim(X2.min(), X2.max())
for i, j in enumerate(np.unique(y_set)):
    plt.scatter(X_set[y_set == j, 0], X_set[y_set == j, 1],
                c = ListedColormap(('red', 'green'))(i), label = j)
plt.title('Logistic Regression (Test set)')
plt.xlabel('Petal Size')
plt.ylabel('Versicolor')
plt.legend()
plt.show()

png

Will from the two plots we can easily see that the classifier is not doing a good job. And before digging into why (which will be another post on how to determine if data is linearly separable or not), we can assume that it’s because the data is not linearly separable (for the IRIS dataset in fact only setosa class is linearly separable).

We can try another non-linear classifier, in this case we can use SVM with a Gaussian RBF Kernel:

from sklearn.svm import SVC

svm = SVC(kernel='rbf', random_state=0)
svm.fit(x_train, y_train)

predicted = svm.predict(x_test)

cm = confusion_matrix(y_test, predicted)
plt.clf()
plt.imshow(cm, interpolation='nearest', cmap=plt.cm.Wistia)
classNames = ['Negative','Positive']
plt.title('SVM RBF Kernel Confusion Matrix - Test Data')
plt.ylabel('True label')
plt.xlabel('Predicted label')
tick_marks = np.arange(len(classNames))
plt.xticks(tick_marks, classNames, rotation=45)
plt.yticks(tick_marks, classNames)
s = [['TN','FP'], ['FN', 'TP']]

for i in range(2):
    for j in range(2):
        plt.text(j,i, str(s[i][j])+" = "+str(cm[i][j]))
plt.show()

png

Here is the plot to show the decision boundary

png

SVM with RBF Kernel produced a significant improvement: down from 15 misclassifications to only 1.

Hope this helps.

note: code was written using Jupyter Notebook

Те, кто работает с данными, отлично знают, что не в нейросетке счастье — а в том, как правильно обработать данные. Но чтобы их обработать, необходимо сначала проанализировать корреляции, выбрать нужные данные, выкинуть ненужные и так далее. Для подобных целей часто используется визуализация с помощью библиотеки matplotlib.

Встретимся «внутри»!

Настройка

Запустите следующий код для настройки. Отдельные диаграммы, впрочем, переопределяют свои настройки сами.

# !pip install brewer2mpl
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
import matplotlib as mpl
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import seaborn as sns
import warnings; warnings.filterwarnings(action='once')

large = 22; med = 16; small = 12
params = {'axes.titlesize': large,
          'legend.fontsize': med,
          'figure.figsize': (16, 10),
          'axes.labelsize': med,
          'axes.titlesize': med,
          'xtick.labelsize': med,
          'ytick.labelsize': med,
          'figure.titlesize': large}
plt.rcParams.update(params)
plt.style.use('seaborn-whitegrid')
sns.set_style("white")
%matplotlib inline

Корреляция

Графики корреляции используются для визуализации взаимосвязи между 2 или более переменными. То есть, как одна переменная изменяется по отношению к другой.

1. Точечный график

Scatteplot — это классический и фундаментальный вид диаграммы, используемый для изучения взаимосвязи между двумя переменными. Если у вас есть несколько групп в ваших данных, вы можете визуализировать каждую группу в другом цвете. В matplotlib вы можете легко сделать это, используя plt.scatterplot().

Показать код

# Import dataset 
midwest = pd.read_csv("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/selva86/datasets/master/midwest_filter.csv")

# Prepare Data 
# Create as many colors as there are unique midwest['category']
categories = np.unique(midwest['category'])
colors = [plt.cm.tab10(i/float(len(categories)-1)) for i in range(len(categories))]

# Draw Plot for Each Category
plt.figure(figsize=(16, 10), dpi= 80, facecolor='w', edgecolor='k')

for i, category in enumerate(categories):
    plt.scatter('area', 'poptotal', 
                data=midwest.loc[midwest.category==category, :], 
                s=20, c=colors[i], label=str(category))

# Decorations
plt.gca().set(xlim=(0.0, 0.1), ylim=(0, 90000),
              xlabel='Area', ylabel='Population')

plt.xticks(fontsize=12); plt.yticks(fontsize=12)
plt.title("Scatterplot of Midwest Area vs Population", fontsize=22)
plt.legend(fontsize=12)    
plt.show()  

2. Пузырьковая диаграмма с захватом группы

Иногда хочется показать группу точек внутри границы, чтобы подчеркнуть их важность. В этом примере мы получаем записи из фрейма данных, которые должны быть выделены, и передаем их в encircle() описанный в приведенном ниже коде.

Показать код

from matplotlib import patches
from scipy.spatial import ConvexHull
import warnings; warnings.simplefilter('ignore')
sns.set_style("white")

# Step 1: Prepare Data
midwest = pd.read_csv("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/selva86/datasets/master/midwest_filter.csv")

# As many colors as there are unique midwest['category']
categories = np.unique(midwest['category'])
colors = [plt.cm.tab10(i/float(len(categories)-1)) for i in range(len(categories))]

# Step 2: Draw Scatterplot with unique color for each category
fig = plt.figure(figsize=(16, 10), dpi= 80, facecolor='w', edgecolor='k')    

for i, category in enumerate(categories):
    plt.scatter('area', 'poptotal', data=midwest.loc[midwest.category==category, :], s='dot_size', c=colors[i], label=str(category), edgecolors='black', linewidths=.5)

# Step 3: Encircling
# https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44575681/how-do-i-encircle-different-data-sets-in-scatter-plot
def encircle(x,y, ax=None, **kw):
    if not ax: ax=plt.gca()
    p = np.c_[x,y]
    hull = ConvexHull(p)
    poly = plt.Polygon(p[hull.vertices,:], **kw)
    ax.add_patch(poly)

# Select data to be encircled
midwest_encircle_data = midwest.loc[midwest.state=='IN', :]                         

# Draw polygon surrounding vertices    
encircle(midwest_encircle_data.area, midwest_encircle_data.poptotal, ec="k", fc="gold", alpha=0.1)
encircle(midwest_encircle_data.area, midwest_encircle_data.poptotal, ec="firebrick", fc="none", linewidth=1.5)

# Step 4: Decorations
plt.gca().set(xlim=(0.0, 0.1), ylim=(0, 90000),
              xlabel='Area', ylabel='Population')

plt.xticks(fontsize=12); plt.yticks(fontsize=12)
plt.title("Bubble Plot with Encircling", fontsize=22)
plt.legend(fontsize=12)    
plt.show()    

3. График линейной регрессии best fit

Если вы хотите понять, как две переменные изменяются по отношению друг к другу, лучше всего подойдет линия best fit. На графике ниже показано, как best fit отличается среди различных групп данных. Чтобы отключить группировки и просто нарисовать одну линию best fit для всего набора данных, удалите параметр hue=’cyl’ из sns.lmplot() ниже.

Показать код

# Import Data
df = pd.read_csv("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/selva86/datasets/master/mpg_ggplot2.csv")
df_select = df.loc[df.cyl.isin([4,8]), :]

# Plot
sns.set_style("white")
gridobj = sns.lmplot(x="displ", y="hwy", hue="cyl", data=df_select, 
                     height=7, aspect=1.6, robust=True, palette='tab10', 
                     scatter_kws=dict(s=60, linewidths=.7, edgecolors='black'))

# Decorations
gridobj.set(xlim=(0.5, 7.5), ylim=(0, 50))
plt.title("Scatterplot with line of best fit grouped by number of cylinders", fontsize=20)
plt.show()

Каждая строка регрессии в своем собственном столбце

Кроме того, вы можете показать линию best fit для каждой группы в отдельном столбце. Вы хотите сделать это, установив параметр col=groupingcolumn внутри sns.lmplot().

Показать код

# Import Data
df = pd.read_csv("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/selva86/datasets/master/mpg_ggplot2.csv")
df_select = df.loc[df.cyl.isin([4,8]), :]

# Each line in its own column
sns.set_style("white")
gridobj = sns.lmplot(x="displ", y="hwy", 
                     data=df_select, 
                     height=7, 
                     robust=True, 
                     palette='Set1', 
                     col="cyl",
                     scatter_kws=dict(s=60, linewidths=.7, edgecolors='black'))

# Decorations
gridobj.set(xlim=(0.5, 7.5), ylim=(0, 50))
plt.show()

4. Stripplot

Часто несколько точек данных имеют одинаковые значения X и Y. В результате несколько точек наносятся друг на друга и скрываются. Чтобы избежать этого, слегка раздвиньте точки, чтобы вы могли видеть их визуально. Это удобно делать с помощью стрипплота stripplot().

Показать код

# Import Data
df = pd.read_csv("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/selva86/datasets/master/mpg_ggplot2.csv")

# Draw Stripplot
fig, ax = plt.subplots(figsize=(16,10), dpi= 80)    
sns.stripplot(df.cty, df.hwy, jitter=0.25, size=8, ax=ax, linewidth=.5)

# Decorations
plt.title('Use jittered plots to avoid overlapping of points', fontsize=22)
plt.show()

5. График подсчета (Counts Plot)

Другим вариантом, позволяющим избежать проблемы наложения точек, является увеличение размера точки в зависимости от того, сколько точек лежит в этом месте. Таким образом, чем больше размер точки, тем больше концентрация точек вокруг нее.

Показать код

# Import Data
df = pd.read_csv("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/selva86/datasets/master/mpg_ggplot2.csv")
df_counts = df.groupby(['hwy', 'cty']).size().reset_index(name='counts')

# Draw Stripplot
fig, ax = plt.subplots(figsize=(16,10), dpi= 80)    
sns.scatterplot(df_counts.cty, df_counts.hwy, size=df_counts.counts*2, ax=ax)

# Decorations
plt.title('Counts Plot - Size of circle is bigger as more points overlap', fontsize=22)
plt.show()

6. Построчная гистограмма

Построчные гистограммы имеют гистограмму вдоль переменных оси X и Y. Это используется для визуализации отношений между X и Y вместе с одномерным распределением X и Y по отдельности. Этот график часто используется в анализе данных (EDA).

Показать код

# Import Data
df = pd.read_csv("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/selva86/datasets/master/mpg_ggplot2.csv")

# Create Fig and gridspec
fig = plt.figure(figsize=(16, 10), dpi= 80)
grid = plt.GridSpec(4, 4, hspace=0.5, wspace=0.2)

# Define the axes
ax_main = fig.add_subplot(grid[:-1, :-1])
ax_right = fig.add_subplot(grid[:-1, -1], xticklabels=[], yticklabels=[])
ax_bottom = fig.add_subplot(grid[-1, 0:-1], xticklabels=[], yticklabels=[])

# Scatterplot on main ax
ax_main.scatter('displ', 'hwy', s=df.cty*4, c=df.manufacturer.astype('category').cat.codes, alpha=.9, data=df, cmap="tab10", edgecolors='gray', linewidths=.5)

# histogram on the right
ax_bottom.hist(df.displ, 40, histtype='stepfilled', orientation='vertical', color='deeppink')
ax_bottom.invert_yaxis()

# histogram in the bottom
ax_right.hist(df.hwy, 40, histtype='stepfilled', orientation='horizontal', color='deeppink')

# Decorations
ax_main.set(title='Scatterplot with Histograms n displ vs hwy', xlabel='displ', ylabel='hwy')
ax_main.title.set_fontsize(20)
for item in ([ax_main.xaxis.label, ax_main.yaxis.label] + ax_main.get_xticklabels() + ax_main.get_yticklabels()):
    item.set_fontsize(14)

xlabels = ax_main.get_xticks().tolist()
ax_main.set_xticklabels(xlabels)
plt.show()

7. Boxplot

Boxplot служит той же цели, что и построчная гистограмма. Тем не менее, этот график помогает точно определить медиану, 25-й и 75-й персентили X и Y.

Показать код

# Import Data
df = pd.read_csv("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/selva86/datasets/master/mpg_ggplot2.csv")

# Create Fig and gridspec
fig = plt.figure(figsize=(16, 10), dpi= 80)
grid = plt.GridSpec(4, 4, hspace=0.5, wspace=0.2)

# Define the axes
ax_main = fig.add_subplot(grid[:-1, :-1])
ax_right = fig.add_subplot(grid[:-1, -1], xticklabels=[], yticklabels=[])
ax_bottom = fig.add_subplot(grid[-1, 0:-1], xticklabels=[], yticklabels=[])

# Scatterplot on main ax
ax_main.scatter('displ', 'hwy', s=df.cty*5, c=df.manufacturer.astype('category').cat.codes, alpha=.9, data=df, cmap="Set1", edgecolors='black', linewidths=.5)

# Add a graph in each part
sns.boxplot(df.hwy, ax=ax_right, orient="v")
sns.boxplot(df.displ, ax=ax_bottom, orient="h")

# Decorations ------------------
# Remove x axis name for the boxplot
ax_bottom.set(xlabel='')
ax_right.set(ylabel='')

# Main Title, Xlabel and YLabel
ax_main.set(title='Scatterplot with Histograms n displ vs hwy', xlabel='displ', ylabel='hwy')

# Set font size of different components
ax_main.title.set_fontsize(20)
for item in ([ax_main.xaxis.label, ax_main.yaxis.label] + ax_main.get_xticklabels() + ax_main.get_yticklabels()):
    item.set_fontsize(14)

plt.show()

26. Графики с прямоугольниками

Такие графики — отличный способ визуализировать распределение, зная медиану, 25-й, 75-й квартили и максимумы с минимумами. Однако вы должны быть осторожны при интерпретации размера полей, которые могут потенциально исказить количество точек, содержащихся в этой группе. Таким образом, ручное указание количества наблюдений в каждой ячейке поможет преодолеть этот недостаток.

Например, первые два прямоугольника слева одинакового размера, хотя они имеют 5 и 47 элементов данных соответственно. Поэтому необходимо отмечать количество наблюдений.

32. Круговая диаграмма

Круговая диаграмма — это классический способ показать состав групп. Тем не менее, в настоящее время, как правило, не рекомендуется использовать этот график, потому что площадь сегментов может иногда вводить в заблуждение. Поэтому, если вы хотите использовать круговую диаграмму, настоятельно рекомендуется явно записать процент или число для каждой части круговой диаграммы.

34. Гистограмма

Гистограмма — это классический способ визуализации элементов на основе количества или любой заданной метрики. На приведенной ниже диаграмме я использовал разные цвета для каждого элемента, но вы можете выбрать один цвет для всех элементов, если вы не хотите раскрашивать их по группам. Имена цветов хранятся внутри all_colors в коде ниже. Вы можете изменить цвет полос, установив параметр color в .plt.plot()

37. График автокорреляции (ACF) и частичной автокорреляции (PACF)

График ACF показывает корреляцию временного ряда с его собственным временем. Каждая вертикальная линия (на графике автокорреляции) представляет корреляцию между рядом и его временем, начиная с времени 0. Синяя заштрихованная область на графике является уровнем значимости. Те моменты, которые лежат выше синей линии, являются существенными.

Так как же это интерпретировать?

Для AirPassengers мы видим, что в x=14 «леденцы» пересекли синюю линию и, таким образом, имеют большое значение. Это означает, что пассажиропоток, наблюдавшийся до 14 лет назад, оказывает влияние на движение, наблюдаемое сегодня.

PACF, с другой стороны, показывает автокорреляцию любого заданного времени (временного ряда) с текущим рядом, но с удалением влияний между ними.

42. Временные ряды с полосами ошибок

Временные ряды с полосами ошибок могут быть построены, если у вас есть набор данных временных рядов с несколькими наблюдениями для каждой временной точки (дата / временная метка). Ниже вы можете увидеть несколько примеров, основанных на поступлении заказов в разное время дня. И еще один пример количества заказов, поступивших в течение 45 дней.

При таком подходе среднее количество заказов обозначается белой линией. И 95% -ые интервалы вычисляются и строятся вокруг среднего значения.

visualization

After training a supervised machine learning model such as a classifier, you would like to know how well it works.

This is often done by setting apart a small piece of your data called the test set, which is used as data that the model has never seen before.

If it performs well on this dataset, it is likely that the model performs well on other data too — if it is sampled from the same distribution as your test set, of course.

Now, when you test your model, you feed it the data — and compare the predictions with the ground truth, measuring the number of true positives, true negatives, false positives and false negatives. These can subsequently be visualized in a visually appealing confusion matrix.

In today’s blog post, we’ll show you how to create such a confusion matrix with Scikit-learn, one of the most widely used frameworks for machine learning in today’s ML community. By means of an example created with Python, we’ll show you step-by-step how to generate a matrix with which you can visually determine the performance of your model easily.

All right, let’s go! :)


[toc]


A confusion matrix in more detail

Training your machine learning model involves its evaluation. In many cases, you have set apart a test set for this.

The test set is a dataset that the trained model has never seen before. Using it allows you to test whether the model has overfit, or adapted to the training data too well, or whether it still generalizes to new data.

This allows you to ensure that your model does not perform very poorly on new data while it still performs really good on the training set. That wouldn’t really work in practice, would it :)

Evaluation with a test set often happens by feeding all the samples to the model, generating a prediction. Subsequently, the predictions are compared with the ground truth — or the true targets corresponding to the test set. These can subsequently be used for computing various metrics.

But they can also be used to demonstrate model performance in a visual way.

Here is an example of a confusion matrix:

To be more precise, it is a normalized confusion matrix. Its axes describe two measures:

  • The true labels, which are the ground truth represented by your test set.
  • The predicted labels, which are the predictions generated by the machine learning model for the features corresponding to the true labels.

It allows you to easily compare how well your model performs. For example, in the model above, for all true labels 1, the predicted label is 1. This means that all samples from class 1 were classified correctly. Great!

For the other classes, performance is also good, but a little bit worse. As you can see, for class 2, some samples were predicted as being part of classes 0 and 1.

In short, it answers the question «For my true labels / ground truth, how well does the model predict?».

It’s also possible to start from a prediction point of view. In this case, the question would change to «For my predicted label, how many predictions are actually part of the predicted class?». It’s the opposite point of view, but could be a valid question in many machine learning cases.

Most preferably, the entire set of true labels is equal to the set of predicted labels. In those cases, you would see zeros everywhere except for the line from the top left to the bottom right. In practice, however, this does not happen often. Likely, the plot is much more scattered, like this SVM classifier where many supporrt vectors are necessary to draw a decision boundary that does not work perfectly, but adequately enough:


Creating a confusion matrix with Python and Scikit-learn

Let’s now see if we can create a confusion matrix ourselves. Today, we will be using Python and Scikit-learn, one of the most widely used frameworks for machine learning today.

Creating a confusion matrix involves various steps:

  1. Generating an example dataset. This one makes sense: we need data to train our model on. We’ll therefore be generating data first, so that we can make an adequate choice for a ML model class next.
  2. Picking a machine learning model class. Obviously, if we want to evaluate a model, we need to train a model. We’ll choose a particular type of model first that fits the characteristics of our data.
  3. Constructing and training the ML model. The consequence of the first two steps is that we end up with a trained model.
  4. Generating the confusion matrix. Finally, based on the trained model, we can create our confusion matrix.

Software dependencies you need to install

Very briefly, but importantly: if you wish to run this code, you must make sure that you have certain software dependencies installed. Here they are:

  • You need to install Python, which is the platform that our code runs on, version 3.6+.
  • You need to install Scikit-learn, the machine learning framework that we will be using today: pip install -U scikit-learn.
  • You need to install Numpy for numbers processing: pip install numpy.
  • You need to install Matplotlib for visualizing the plots: pip install matplotlib.
  • Finally, if you wish to generate a plot of decision boundaries (not required), you also need to install Mlxtend: pip install mlxtend.

Generating an example dataset

The first step is generating an example dataset. We will be using Scikit-learn for this purpose too. First, create a file called confusion-matrix.py, and open it in a code editor. The first thing we do is add the imports:

# Imports
from sklearn.datasets import make_blobs
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

The make_blobs function from Scikit-learn allows us to generate ‘blobs’, or clusters, of samples. Those blobs are centered around some point and are the samples are scattered around this point based on some standard deviation. This gives you flexibility about both the position and the structure of your generated dataset, in turn allowing you to experiment with a variety of ML models without having to worry about the data.

As we will evaluate the model, we need to ensure that the dataset is split between training and testing data. Scikit-learn also allows us to do this, with train_test_split. We therefore import that one too.

Configuration options

Next, we can define a number of configuration options:

# Configuration options
blobs_random_seed = 42
centers = [(0,0), (5,5), (0,5), (2,3)]
cluster_std = 1.3
frac_test_split = 0.33
num_features_for_samples = 4
num_samples_total = 5000

The random seed describes the initialization of the pseudo-random number generator used for generating the blobs of data. As you may know, no random number generator is truly random. What’s more, they are also initialized differently. Configuring a fixed seed ensures that every time you run the script, the random number generator initializes in the same way. If weird behavior occurs, you know that it’s likely not the random number generator.

The centers describe the centers in two-dimensional space of our blobs of data. As you can see, we have 4 blobs today.

The cluster standard deviation describes the standard deviation with which a sample is drawn from the sampling distribution used by the random point generator. We set it to 1.3; a lower number produces clusters that are better separable, and vice-versa.

The fraction of the train/test split determines how much data is split off for testing purposes. In our case, that’s 33% of the data.

The number of features for our samples is 4, and indeed describes how many targets we have: 4, as we have 4 blobs of data.

Finally, the number of samples generated is pretty self-explanatory. We set it to 5000 samples. That’s not too much data, but more than sufficient for the educational purposes of today’s blog post.

Generating the data

Next up is the call to make_blobs and to train_test_split for actually generating and splitting the data:

# Generate data
inputs, targets = make_blobs(n_samples = num_samples_total, centers = centers, n_features = num_features_for_samples, cluster_std = cluster_std)
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(inputs, targets, test_size=frac_test_split, random_state=blobs_random_seed)

Saving the data (optional)

Once the data is generated, you may choose to save it to file. This is an optional step — and I include it because I want to re-use the same dataset every time I run the script (e.g. because I am tweaking a visualization). If you use the code below, you can run it once — then, it’s saved in the .npy file. When you subsequently uncomment the np.save call, and possibly also the generate data calls, you’ll always have the same data load from file.

Then, you can tweak away your visualization easily without having to deal with new data all the time :)

# Save and load temporarily
np.save('./data_cf.npy', (X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test))
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = np.load('./data_cf.npy', allow_pickle=True)

Should you wish to visualize the data, this is of course possible:

# Generate scatter plot for training data 
plt.scatter(X_train[:,0], X_train[:,1])
plt.title('Linearly separable data')
plt.xlabel('X1')
plt.ylabel('X2')
plt.show()

Picking a machine learning model class

Now that we have our code for generating the dataset, we can take a look at the output to determine what kind of model we could use:

I can derive a few characteristics from this dataset (which, obviously, I also built-in up front ;-) ).

First of all, the number of features is low: only two — as our data is two-dimensional. This is good, because then we likely don’t face the curse of dimensionality, and a wider range of ML models is applicable.

Next, when inspecting the data from a closer point of view, I can see a gap between what seem to be blobs of data (it is also slightly visible in the diagram above):

This suggests that the data may be separable, and possibly even linearly so (yes, of course, I know this is the case ;-) ).

Third, and finally, the number of samples is relatively low: only 5.000 samples are present. Neural networks with their relatively large amount of trainable parameters would likely start overfitting relatively quickly, so they wouldn’t be my preferable choice.

However, traditional machine learning techniques to the rescue. A Support Vector Machine, which attempts to construct a decision boundary between separable blobs of data, can be a good candidate here. Let’s give it a try: we’re going to construct and train an SVM and see how well it performs through its confusion matrix.

Constructing and training the ML model

As we have seen in the post linked above, we can also use Scikit-learn to construct and train a SVM classifier. Let’s do so next.

Model imports

First, we’ll have to add a few extra imports to the top of our script:

from sklearn import svm
from sklearn.metrics import plot_confusion_matrix
from mlxtend.plotting import plot_decision_regions

(The Mlxtend one is optional, as we discussed at ‘what you need to install’, but could be useful if you wish to visualize the decision boundary later.)

Training the classifier

First, we initialize the SVM classifier. I’m using a linear kernel because I suspect (actually, I’m confident, as we constructed the data ourselves) that the data is linearly separable:

# Initialize SVM classifier
clf = svm.SVC(kernel='linear')

Then, we fit the training data — starting the training process:

# Fit data
clf = clf.fit(X_train, y_train)

That’s it for training the machine learning model! The classifier variable, or clf, now contains a reference to the trained classifier. By calling clf.predict, you can now generate predictions for new data.

Generating the confusion matrix

But let’s take a look at generating that confusion matrix now. As we discussed, it’s part of the evaluation step, and we use it to visualize its predictive and generalization power on the test set.

Recall that we compare the predictions generated during evaluation with the ground truth available for those inputs.

The plot_confusion_matrix call takes care of this for us, and we simply have to provide it the classifier (clf), the test set (X_test and y_test), a color map and whether to normalize the data.

# Generate confusion matrix
matrix = plot_confusion_matrix(clf, X_test, y_test,
                                 cmap=plt.cm.Blues,
                                 normalize='true')
plt.title('Confusion matrix for our classifier')
plt.show(matrix)
plt.show()

Normalization, here, involves converting back the data into the [0, 1] format above. If you leave out normalization, you get the number of samples that are part of that prediction:

Here are some other visualizations that help us explain the confusion matrix (for the boundary plot, you need to install Mlxtend with pip install mlxtend):

# Get support vectors
support_vectors = clf.support_vectors_

# Visualize support vectors
plt.scatter(X_train[:,0], X_train[:,1])
plt.scatter(support_vectors[:,0], support_vectors[:,1], color='red')
plt.title('Linearly separable data with support vectors')
plt.xlabel('X1')
plt.ylabel('X2')
plt.show()

# Plot decision boundary
plot_decision_regions(X_test, y_test, clf=clf, legend=2)
plt.show()

It’s clear that we need many support vectors (the red samples) to generate the decision boundary. Given the relative unclarity of the separability between the data points, this is not unexpected. I’m actually quite satisfied with the performance of the model, as demonstrated by the confusion matrix (relatively blue diagonal line).

The only class that underperforms is class 3, with a score of 0.68. It’s still acceptable, but is lower than preferred. This can be explained by looking at the class in the decision boundary plot. Here, it’s clear that it’s the middle class — the reds. As those samples are surrounded by the other ones, it’s clear that the model has had significant difficulty generating the decision boundary. We might for example counter this by using a different kernel function which takes this into account, ensuring better separability. However, that’s not the core of today’s post.

Summary

That’s it for today! In this blog post, we created a confusion matrix with Python and Scikit-learn. After studying what a confusion matrix is, and how it displays true positives, true negatives, false positives and false negatives, we gave a step-by-step example for creating one yourself.

The example included generating a dataset, picking a suitable machine learning model for the dataset, constructing, configuring and training it, and finally interpreting the results i.e. the confusion matrix. This way, you should be able to understand what is happening and why I made certain choices.

I hope you’ve learnt something from today’s blog post! :) If you did, I would really appreciate it if you left a comment in the comments section 💬 Please do the same if you have questions or remarks. I’ll happily answer and improve my blog post where necessary.

Thank you for reading MachineCurve today and happy engineering! 😎
