Compute binary classification positive and negative likelihood ratios.
The positive likelihood ratio is LR+ = sensitivity / (1 - specificity) where the sensitivity or recall is the ratio tp / (tp + fn) and the specificity is tn / (tn + fp). The negative likelihood ratio is LR- = (1 - sensitivity) / specificity. Here tp is the number of true positives, fp the number of false positives, tn is the number of true negatives and fn the number of false negatives. Both class likelihood ratios can be used to obtain post-test probabilities given a pre-test probability.
LR+ ranges from 1.0 to infinity. A LR+ of 1.0 indicates that the probability of predicting the positive class is the same for samples belonging to either class; therefore, the test is useless. The greater LR+ is, the more a positive prediction is likely to be a true positive when compared with the pre-test probability. A value of LR+ lower than 1.0 is invalid as it would indicate that the odds of a sample being a true positive decrease with respect to the pre-test odds.
LR- ranges from 0.0 to 1.0. The closer it is to 0.0, the lower the probability of a given sample to be a false negative. A LR- of 1.0 means the test is useless because the odds of having the condition did not change after the test. A value of LR- greater than 1.0 invalidates the classifier as it indicates an increase in the odds of a sample belonging to the positive class after being classified as negative. This is the case when the classifier systematically predicts the opposite of the true label.
A typical application in medicine is to identify the positive/negative class to the presence/absence of a disease, respectively; the classifier being a diagnostic test; the pre-test probability of an individual having the disease can be the prevalence of such disease (proportion of a particular population found to be affected by a medical condition); and the post-test probabilities would be the probability that the condition is truly present given a positive test result.

Ground truth (correct) target values.
Estimated targets as returned by a classifier.
List of labels to index the matrix. This may be used to select the positive and negative classes with the ordering labels=[negative_class, positive_class]. If None is given, those that appear at least once in y_true or y_pred are used in sorted order.
Sample weights.
Whether or not a case-specific warning message is raised when there is division by zero.
Deprecated since version 1.7: raise_warning was deprecated in version 1.7 and will be removed in 1.9, when an UndefinedMetricWarning will always raise in case of a division by zero.
Sets the return values for LR+ and LR- when there is a division by zero. Can take the following values:
np.nan to return np.nan for both LR+ and LR-
1.0 to return the worst possible scores: {"LR+": 1.0, "LR-": 1.0}
a dict in the format {"LR+": value_1, "LR-": value_2} where the values can be non-negative floats, np.inf or np.nan in the range of the likelihood ratios. For example, {"LR+": 1.0, "LR-": 1.0} can be used for returning the worst scores, indicating a useless model, and {"LR+": np.inf, "LR-": 0.0} can be used for returning the best scores, indicating a useful model.
If a division by zero occurs, only the affected metric is replaced with the set value; the other metric is calculated as usual.
Added in version 1.7.
A tuple of two floats, the first containing the positive likelihood ratio (LR+) and the second the negative likelihood ratio (LR-).
UndefinedMetricWarning when y_true and
y_pred lead to the following conditions:
The number of false positives is 0 and raise_warning is set to True (default): positive likelihood ratio is undefined.
The number of true negatives is 0 and raise_warning is set to True (default): negative likelihood ratio is undefined.
The sum of true positives and false negatives is 0 (no samples of the positive class are present in y_true): both likelihood ratios are undefined.
For the first two cases, an undefined metric can be defined by setting the replace_undefined_by param.

>>> import numpy as np >>> from sklearn.metrics import class_likelihood_ratios >>> class_likelihood_ratios([0, 1, 0, 1, 0], [1, 1, 0, 0, 0]) (1.5, 0.75) >>> y_true = np.array(["non-cat", "cat", "non-cat", "cat", "non-cat"]) >>> y_pred = np.array(["cat", "cat", "non-cat", "non-cat", "non-cat"]) >>> class_likelihood_ratios(y_true, y_pred) (1.33, 0.66) >>> y_true = np.array(["non-zebra", "zebra", "non-zebra", "zebra", "non-zebra"]) >>> y_pred = np.array(["zebra", "zebra", "non-zebra", "non-zebra", "non-zebra"]) >>> class_likelihood_ratios(y_true, y_pred) (1.5, 0.75)
To avoid ambiguities, use the notation labels=[negative_class, positive_class]
>>> y_true = np.array(["non-cat", "cat", "non-cat", "cat", "non-cat"]) >>> y_pred = np.array(["cat", "cat", "non-cat", "non-cat", "non-cat"]) >>> class_likelihood_ratios(y_true, y_pred, labels=["non-cat", "cat"]) (1.5, 0.75)
