📝 Exercise M7.02#
We presented different classification metrics in the previous notebook. However, we did not use it with a cross-validation. This exercise aims at practicing and implementing cross-validation.
We will reuse the blood transfusion dataset.
import pandas as pd
blood_transfusion = pd.read_csv("../datasets/blood_transfusion.csv")
data = blood_transfusion.drop(columns="Class")
target = blood_transfusion["Class"]
Note
If you want a deeper overview regarding this dataset, you can refer to the Appendix - Datasets description section at the end of this MOOC.
First, create a decision tree classifier.
# Write your code here.
Create a StratifiedKFold cross-validation object. Then use it inside the
cross_val_score function to evaluate the decision tree. We will first use
the accuracy as a score function. Explicitly use the scoring parameter of
cross_val_score to compute the accuracy (even if this is the default score).
Check its documentation to learn how to do that.
# Write your code here.
Repeat the experiment by computing the balanced_accuracy.
# Write your code here.
We will now add a bit of complexity. We would like to compute the precision of
our model. However, during the course we saw that we need to mention the
positive label which in our case we consider to be the class donated.
We will show that computing the precision without providing the positive label will not be supported by scikit-learn because it is indeed ambiguous.

Tip
We catch the exception with a try/except pattern to be able to print it.
We get an exception because the default scorer has its positive label set to
one (pos_label=1), which is not our case (our positive label is “donated”).
In this case, we need to create a scorer using the scoring function and the
helper function make_scorer.
So, import sklearn.metrics.make_scorer and
sklearn.metrics.precision_score. Check their documentations for more
information. Finally, create a scorer by calling make_scorer using the score
function precision_score and pass the extra parameter pos_label="donated".
# Write your code here.
Now, instead of providing the string "precision" to the scoring parameter
in the cross_val_score call, pass the scorer that you created above.
# Write your code here.
cross_val_score will only compute a single score provided to the scoring
parameter. The function cross_validate allows the computation of multiple
scores by passing a list of string or scorer to the parameter scoring, which
could be handy.
Import sklearn.model_selection.cross_validate and compute the accuracy and
balanced accuracy through cross-validation. Plot the cross-validation score
for both metrics using a box plot.
# Write your code here.
