Pet peeve of mine: articles using stats like 96% accuracy.
If the test set had 4% deep fakes, and 96% legitimate videos, a model which always predicts legitimate video would score 96% accuracy, even if it were useless.
Stats like precision, recall, F1 scores etc. are important.
- mabbo 4y agoIt's the reality of popular terminology. We only have one word in English that gets commonly used and means "is correct this much of the time". Nuance is lost, but it ensures more people understand the general gist of the article. One could now get meta and discuss the "accuracy of language", but I feel that might just make you more upset :)
- heavenlyblue 4y agoI read that 96% here means guessing both sides of the witha weighted coefficient on how many of them are in the sample.
