Hi,

Thank you for the help! Would this imply then that if my "answers" and
"predicted" are both matrices, I need to first make them into factors? I was
hoping to avoid that step...
Why are they matrices? What is the additional dimension? And: what should become of the additional dimension? with 2d reference and prediction, do you want to produce 3d or 4d confusion "matrices"?

Thank you again!
You are welcome.

Claudia

Hi, I played with the table option but I seem to be only able to give me
counts for numbers that exist. For example, if I don't have any 4's that
are predicted, that number is skipped!
Well, you need to tell the function that there _could_ be a 4 :

ref <- factor (1 : 3) ref <- factor (1 : 4) pred <- factor (c (1 : 3, 1),
levels = levels (ref)) ref
[1] 1 2 3 4 Levels: 1 2 3 4
pred
[1] 1 2 3 1 Levels: 1 2 3 4
table (ref, pred)
pred ref 1 2 3 4 1 1 0 0 0 2 0 1 0 0 3 0 0 1 0 4 1 0 0 0

Subject: Re: [R] confusion matrix Dear Greg, If it is only the NA that
worries you: function table can deal with that. ? table and: example
(table) If you want to make a confusion matrix that works also with
fractional answers (e.g. 50% A, 50% B, a.k.a soft classification) then
you can contact me and become test user of a package that I'm just
writing (you can also wait until it is published to CRAN, but that will
take a while). Best regards, Claudia Gregory Ryslik wrote:
Hi Everyone, In follow up to my previous question, I wrote some code
that correctly makes a confusion matrix as I need it. However, it only
works when the numbers are between 1 and n. If the possible outcomes
are between 0 and n, then I can't reference row "0" of the matrix and
the code breaks. Does anyone have any easy fixes for this? I've
attached the entire code to this email. As always, thank you for your
help! Greg Code: answers<-matrix(c(4,2,1,3,2,1),nrow =6) mat1<-
matrix(c(3,3,4,NA,4,2),nrow = 6) mat2<-matrix(c(3,2,1,4,2,3),nrow = 6)
mat3<-matrix(c(4,2,2,2,1,1),nrow = 6) mat4<-matrix(c(4,2,1,3,1,4),nrow
= 6) mat5<-matrix(c(2,3,1,4,2,3),nrow = 6) matrixlist<-
list(mat1,mat2,mat3,mat4,mat5) predicted.values<- matrix(unlist(matrixlist),nrow = dim(mat1)[1]) confusion.matrix<-matrix(0, nrow =
length(as.vector(unique(answers))),ncol =

true.value<- answers[i,] confusion.matrix[true.value, predicted.value]
<- confusion.matrix[true.value,predicted.value]+1 } } } class.error<-
