sklearn.metrics.jaccard_similarity_score¶
- sklearn.metrics.jaccard_similarity_score(y_true, y_pred, normalize=True)¶
Jaccard similarity coefficient score
The Jaccard index [1], or Jaccard similarity coefficient, defined as the size of the intersection divided by the size of the union of two label sets, is used to compare set of predicted labels for a sample to the corresponding set of labels in y_true.
Parameters : y_true : array-like or list of labels or label indicator matrix
Ground truth (correct) labels.
y_pred : array-like or list of labels or label indicator matrix
Predicted labels, as returned by a classifier.
normalize : bool, optional (default=True)
If False, return the sum of the Jaccard similarity coefficient over the sample set. Otherwise, return the average of Jaccard similarity coefficient.
Returns : score : float
If normalize == True, return the average Jaccard similarity coefficient, else it returns the sum of the Jaccard similarity coefficient over the sample set.
The best performance is 1 with normalize == True and the number of samples with normalize == False.

Notes
In binary and multiclass classification, this function is equivalent to the accuracy_score. It differs in the multilabel classification problem.

>>> import numpy as np >>> from sklearn.metrics import jaccard_similarity_score >>> y_pred = [0, 2, 1, 3] >>> y_true = [0, 1, 2, 3] >>> jaccard_similarity_score(y_true, y_pred) 0.5 >>> jaccard_similarity_score(y_true, y_pred, normalize=False) 2
In the multilabel case with binary indicator format:
>>> jaccard_similarity_score(np.array([[0.0, 1.0], [1.0, 1.0]]), np.ones((2, 2))) 0.75
and with a list of labels format:
>>> jaccard_similarity_score([(1, ), (3, )], [(1, 2), tuple()]) 0.25
