ee.ConfusionMatrix.producersAccuracy

  • The ConfusionMatrix.producersAccuracy() method calculates the producer's accuracy for a confusion matrix, which is defined as the correct predictions divided by the total for each column.

  • This method returns an Array representing the producer's accuracy for each class.

  • The provided examples demonstrate how to use producersAccuracy() in both JavaScript and Python within the Earth Engine environment.

 Computes the producer's accuracy of a confusion matrix defined as (correct / total) for each column.

UsageReturns

// Construct a confusion matrix from an array (rows are actual values,
// columns are predicted values). We construct a confusion matrix here for
// brevity and clear visualization, in most applications the confusion matrix
// will be generated from ee.Classifier.confusionMatrix.
var array = ee.Array([[32, 0, 0,  0,  1, 0],
                      [ 0, 5, 0,  0,  1, 0],

var confusionMatrix = ee.ConfusionMatrix(array);
print("Constructed confusion matrix", confusionMatrix);

// Calculate overall accuracy.
print("Overall accuracy", confusionMatrix.accuracy());

// Calculate consumer's accuracy, also known as user's accuracy or
// specificity and the complement of commission error (1 − commission error).
print("Consumer's accuracy", confusionMatrix.consumersAccuracy());

// Calculate producer's accuracy, also known as sensitivity and the
// compliment of omission error (1 − omission error).
print("Producer's accuracy", confusionMatrix.producersAccuracy());

// Calculate kappa statistic.
print('Kappa statistic', confusionMatrix.kappa());
