# sklearn.metrics.classification_report¶

sklearn.metrics.classification_report(y_true, y_pred, *, labels=None, target_names=None, sample_weight=None, digits=2, output_dict=False, zero_division='warn')[source]

Build a text report showing the main classification metrics.

Read more in the User Guide.

Parameters:
y_true1d array-like, or label indicator array / sparse matrix

Ground truth (correct) target values.

y_pred1d array-like, or label indicator array / sparse matrix

Estimated targets as returned by a classifier.

labelsarray-like of shape (n_labels,), default=None

Optional list of label indices to include in the report.

target_nameslist of str of shape (n_labels,), default=None

Optional display names matching the labels (same order).

sample_weightarray-like of shape (n_samples,), default=None

Sample weights.

digitsint, default=2

Number of digits for formatting output floating point values. When output_dict is True, this will be ignored and the returned values will not be rounded.

output_dictbool, default=False

If True, return output as dict.

New in version 0.20.

zero_division“warn”, 0 or 1, default=”warn”

Sets the value to return when there is a zero division. If set to “warn”, this acts as 0, but warnings are also raised.

Returns:
reportstr or dict

Text summary of the precision, recall, F1 score for each class. Dictionary returned if output_dict is True. Dictionary has the following structure:

{'label 1': {'precision':0.5,
'recall':1.0,
'f1-score':0.67,
'support':1},
'label 2': { ... },
...
}


The reported averages include macro average (averaging the unweighted mean per label), weighted average (averaging the support-weighted mean per label), and sample average (only for multilabel classification). Micro average (averaging the total true positives, false negatives and false positives) is only shown for multi-label or multi-class with a subset of classes, because it corresponds to accuracy otherwise and would be the same for all metrics. See also precision_recall_fscore_support for more details on averages.

Note that in binary classification, recall of the positive class is also known as “sensitivity”; recall of the negative class is “specificity”.

precision_recall_fscore_support

Compute precision, recall, F-measure and support for each class.

confusion_matrix

Compute confusion matrix to evaluate the accuracy of a classification.

multilabel_confusion_matrix

Compute a confusion matrix for each class or sample.

>>> print(classification_report(y_true, y_pred, target_names=target_names))
