python - 用 scikit-learn 计算 AUC 的正确方法是什么？

问题描述

我注意到以下两个代码的结果是不同的。

#1
metrics.plot_roc_curve(classifier, X_test, y_test, ax=plt.gca())


#2
metrics.plot_roc_curve(classifier, X_test, y_test, ax=plt.gca(), label=clsname + ' (AUC = %.2f)' % roc_auc_score(y_test, y_predicted))

那么，哪种方法是正确的呢？

我添加了一个简单的可重现示例：

from sklearn.metrics import roc_auc_score
from sklearn import metrics
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
from sklearn.svm import SVC
from sklearn.datasets import load_breast_cancer

data = load_breast_cancer()
X = data.data
y = data.target

X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, y, test_size=0.20, random_state=12)

svclassifier = SVC(kernel='rbf')
svclassifier.fit(X_train, y_train)
y_predicted = svclassifier.predict(X_test)

print('AUC = %.2f' % roc_auc_score(y_test, y_predicted))  #1

metrics.plot_roc_curve(svclassifier, X_test, y_test, ax=plt.gca())  #2
plt.show()

输出（#1）：

AUC = 0.86

而（＃2）：

解决方案

这里的区别可能是 sklearn 内部使用predict_proba()来获取每个类的概率，并从该发现 auc

例如，当您使用classifier.predict()

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from sklearn import datasets, metrics, model_selection, svm
X, y = datasets.make_classification(random_state=0)
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = model_selection.train_test_split(X, y, random_state=0)
clf = svm.SVC(random_state=0,probability=False)
clf.fit(X_train, y_train)
clf.predict(X_test)

>> array([1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0,
       1, 0, 0])

# calculate auc
metrics.roc_auc_score(y_test, clf.predict(X_test))

>>>0.8782051282051283  # ~0.88

如果你使用classifier.predict_proba()

X, y = datasets.make_classification(random_state=0)
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = model_selection.train_test_split(X, y, random_state=0)
# set probability=True
clf = svm.SVC(random_state=0,probability=True)
clf.fit(X_train, y_train)
clf.predict_proba(X_test)

>> array([[0.13625954, 0.86374046],
       [0.90517034, 0.09482966],
       [0.19754525, 0.80245475],
       [0.96741274, 0.03258726],
       [0.80850602, 0.19149398],
       ......................,
       [0.31927198, 0.68072802],
       [0.8454472 , 0.1545528 ],
       [0.75919018, 0.24080982]])

# calculate auc
# when computing the roc auc metrics, by default, estimators.classes_[1] is   
# considered as the positive class here 'clf.predict_proba(X_test)[:,1]'

metrics.roc_auc_score(y_test, clf.predict_proba(X_test)[:,1])
>> 0.9102564102564102

因此，对于您的问题，您metrics.plot_roc_curve(classifier, X_test, y_test, ax=plt.gca())可能正在使用默认值predict_proba()来预测auc，而对于metrics.plot_roc_curve(classifier, X_test, y_test, ax=plt.gca(), label=clsname + ' (AUC = %.2f)' % roc_auc_score(y_test, y_predicted))，您正在计算roc_auc_score分数并将其作为标签传递。
