Scikit-learn, get accuracy scores for each class

Question

Is there a built-in way for getting accuracy scores for each class separatetly? I know in sklearn we can get overall accuracy by using metric.accuracy_score. Is

Answer 1

In my opinion, accuracy is generic term that has different dimensions, e.g. precision, recall, f1-score, (or even specificity, sensitivity), etc. that provide accuracy measures in different perspectives. Hence, the function 'classification_report' outputs a range of accuracy measures for each class. For instance, precision provides the proportion of accurately retrieved instances (i.e. true positives) with total number of instances (both true positives and false negatives) available in a particular class.
