F1 score
Description
In statistical analysis of binary classification, the F1 score (also F-score or F-measure) is a measure of a test’s accuracy. It considers both the precision and the recall of the test to compute the score. The F1 score can be interpreted as a weighted average of the precision and recall, where an F1 score reaches its best value at 1 and worst score at 0.
