Measure to compare true observed labels with predicted labels in multiclass classification tasks.

Details

The Classification Error is defined as $$ \frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^n w_i \left( t_i \neq r_i \right). $$

Note

The score function calls mlr3measures::ce() from package mlr3measures.

If the measure is undefined for the input, NaN is returned. This can be customized by setting the field na_value.

Dictionary

This Measure can be instantiated via the dictionary mlr_measures or with the associated sugar function msr():

mlr_measures$get("classif.ce")
msr("classif.ce")
