In imbalanced classification problems, a model can achieve very high accuracy even by predicting all samples as the majority class, so it is necessary to shift to more discriminative metrics such as precision-recall curves, F1 score, Matthews correlation coefficient, or AUC-ROC

UnverifiedThe core advantage of AUC-ROC is its insensitivity to class imbalance; it reflects the model's overall discriminative ability across different classification thresholds, with AUC values ranging from 0.5 to 1.0.76% similarUnverifiedIn highly imbalanced datasets (with a positive rate below 5%), the area under the precision-recall curve (AP) often reflects the model's ability to detect the minority class better than AUC does.75% similarUnverifiedThe value of AUC ranges from 0 to 1, and a higher value indicates stronger classification ability of the model.72% similarUnverifiedIn class-imbalance scenarios, a model can achieve seemingly impressive accuracy by always predicting the majority class, a phenomenon known as the Accuracy Paradox.71% similarUnverifiedWhen class imbalance is severe, the PR curve reflects the model's true performance better than the ROC curve.71% similar
