Manual inspection of missclassified examples

Carl_GranströmCarl_Granström Member Posts: 3 Learner I
in Help
Hello,


I'm trying to find out how, after training a classification model, I can look at the examples that were incorrectly classified. For now I can only see how many examples were incorrectly classified in the confusion matrix, but I want to inspect the missclassified examples manually. Since evaluation vector does not seem to be able to store such information I guess I need to somehow add another operator to achieve this, if it's even possible (which, in my own opinion, feels like a very basic feature, so I'm hoping it's there somewhere).


Kind regards,

Carl

    hi @Carl_Granström hmm well that does sound very basic. Funny thing is that I moderate this forum and have been on it for years - I cannot recall anyone asking! :smile:

    Anyway it's pretty easy. I would just put a Filter Examples on the end like this:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><process version="9.5.000-BETA4">

    So I have a further question: can this be done inside the Validation operator somehow?
  • varunm1varunm1 Member Posts: 1,207 Unicorn

    Hello @Carl_Granström

    You need to connect the "Exa" port of the "Performance" Operator inside the validation to the "tes" port. Then you connect the "Tes" output of cross-validation operator to the process output or filter examples as Scott did in earlier example.

    Ah, thank you varunm1. Unfortunately I don't want to use the Cross-validation operator, and neither the Validation or Split Validation operators have an outgoing tes port.
  • lionelderkrikorlionelderkrikor RapidMiner Certified Analyst, Member Posts: 1,195 Unicorn
    Hi Carl,

    In deed, Split Validation operator has no tes output port.
    But you can extract the test set using the association Remember/Recall operators.

    Take a look at this process :

    that's pretty clever, @lionelderkrikor. I will say from a UI/UX standpoint that this is rather icky. As @Carl_Granström said, it should be easier. But well done on the remember/recall. :smile:
