Remote sensing imaging datasets for classification generally present high levels of imbalance between classes of interest. This work presented a study of a set of performance evaluation metrics for an imbalance dataset. In this work, a support vector machine (SVM) was used to perform the classification of seven classes of interest in a popular dataset called Salinas-A. The performance evaluation of the classifier was performed using two types of metrics: 1) Metrics for multi-class classification, and 2) Metrics based on the binary confusion matrix. In the results, a comparison of the scores of each metric is developed, some being more optimistic than others due to the bias that they present given the imbalance. In addition, our case study helps to conclude that the Matthews correlation coefficient (MCC) presents the lowest bias in imbalanced cases and is regarded to be robust metric. These results can be extended to any imbalanced dataset taking into account the equations developed by Luque. |
