Sci-kit learn how to print labels for confusion matrix?

Question

So I\'m using sci-kit learn to classify some data. I have 13 different class values/categorizes to classify the data to. Now I have been able to use cross validation and print t

From the doc, it seems that there is no such option to print the rows and column labels of the confusion matrix. However, you can specify the label order using argument labels=...

Example:

from sklearn.metrics import confusion_matrix

y_true = ['yes','yes','yes','no','no','no']
y_pred = ['yes','no','no','no','no','no']
print(confusion_matrix(y_true, y_pred))
# Output:
# [[3 0]
#  [2 1]]
print(confusion_matrix(y_true, y_pred, labels=['yes', 'no']))
# Output:
# [[1 2]
#  [0 3]]

If you want to print the confusion matrix with labels, you may try pandas and set the index and columns of the DataFrame.

import pandas as pd
cmtx = pd.DataFrame(
    confusion_matrix(y_true, y_pred, labels=['yes', 'no']), 
    index=['true:yes', 'true:no'], 
    columns=['pred:yes', 'pred:no']
)
print(cmtx)
# Output:
#           pred:yes  pred:no
# true:yes         1        2
# true:no          0        3

Or

unique_label = np.unique([y_true, y_pred])
cmtx = pd.DataFrame(
    confusion_matrix(y_true, y_pred, labels=unique_label), 
    index=['true:{:}'.format(x) for x in unique_label], 
    columns=['pred:{:}'.format(x) for x in unique_label]
)
print(cmtx)
# Output:
#           pred:no  pred:yes
# true:no         3         0
# true:yes        2         1
