The Role of the Confusion Matrix in Addressing Imbalanced Datasets
Briefly

Classification algorithms excel in machine learning, but training them on imbalanced datasets poses challenges; confusion matrices are essential for evaluating model performance.
A confusion matrix provides a visual representation comparing predicted labels of a model to actual outcomes, highlighting true positives, true negatives, false positives, and false negatives.
In a business environment with an 80% failure rate of AI projects, confusion matrices play a crucial role in assessing a classification model's performance before deployment.
While confusion matrices don't identify the root causes of issues, they give vital insights into how effectively an algorithm categorizes inputs relative to known labels.
