Describe a situation where a high Accuracy might be misleading, and a different metric (e.g., Precision, Recall, or F1-Score) might be more appropriate.
- When the dataset has equal classes, Precision is more appropriate
- When the dataset has only one class, Recall is more appropriate
- When the dataset is imbalanced, other metrics like Precision or Recall may be more informative
- nan
In imbalanced datasets, where one class significantly outnumbers the other, Accuracy can be misleading. Even a naive model predicting the majority class will have high Accuracy. Metrics like Precision, Recall, or F1-Score provide more insight into the model's performance on the minority class.
