Visual Analytics for Hierarchical and Multi-Output Confusion Matrix
Neo: Generalizing Confusion Matrix Visualization to Hierarchical and Multi-Output Labels
Conventional confusion matrices do not support more complex data-structures found in modern-day applications, such as hierarchicaland multi-output labels.
To express such variations of confusion matrices, we design an algebra that models confusion matrices as probability distributions.
Based on this algebra, we develop neo, a visual analytics system that enables practitioners to flexibly author and interact with hierarchical andmulti-output confusion matrices, visualize derived metrics, renormalize confusions, and share matrix specifications.
Finally, we demonstrate neo s utility with three case studies that help people better understand model performance and reveal hidden confusions.
