The two-dimensional confusion matrix used in credit assessment, biostatistics, and many other fields consists of true positive, true negative, false positive, and false negative. Their rates, such as the true positive rate (TPR), true negative rate (TNR), false positive rate, and false negative rate, can be applied to measure its accuracy. In this study, we propose the TPR-TNR plot, a graphical method that can geometrically describe and explain these rates based on the confusion matrix. The proposed TPR-TNR plot consists of two right-angled triangles. We obtain that the TPR and TNR describe the acute angles of right-angled triangles in the plot. These acute angles can be used to determine optimal thresholds corresponding to lots of accuracy measures. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
