Disclaimer: This project was created for my clients because it’s rather challenging to explain such a complex metric simply, therefore don’t expect to see much of math or equations here, and please remember that I try to keep it simple.

Accuracy

Accuracy is the most vanilla metric out there. Imagine we are doing classification of whether there is a dog in a picture. In order to test our classifier, we prepare a test set with pictures of both containing dogs and not. We then apply our classifier to every picture and get the predicted classes.

So we can then calculate accuracy using this simple formula.
