roc_curve
(y_true, y_score, pos_label=None, sample_weight=None, drop_intermediate=True)[source]¶ Compute Receiver operating characteristic (ROC)
Note: this implementation is restricted to the binary classification task.
Read more in the User Guide.
- Parameters
- y_truearray, shape = [n_samples]
True binary labels. If labels are not either {-1, 1} or {0, 1}, then pos_label should be explicitly given.
- y_scorearray, shape = [n_samples]
Target scores, can either be probability estimates of the positive class, confidence values, or non-thresholded measure of decisions (as returned by “decision_function” on some classifiers).
- pos_labelint or str, default=None
The label of the positive class. When
pos_label=None
, if y_true is in {-1, 1} or {0, 1},pos_label
is set to 1, otherwise an error will be raised.- sample_weightarray-like of shape = [n_samples], optional
Sample weights.
- drop_intermediateboolean, optional (default=True)
Whether to drop some suboptimal thresholds which would not appear on a plotted ROC curve. This is useful in order to create lighter ROC curves.
New in version 0.17: parameter drop_intermediate.
- Returns
- fprarray, shape = [>2]
Increasing false positive rates such that element i is the false positive rate of predictions with score >= thresholds[i].
- tprarray, shape = [>2]
Increasing true positive rates such that element i is the true positive rate of predictions with score >= thresholds[i].
- thresholdsarray, shape = [n_thresholds]
Decreasing thresholds on the decision function used to compute fpr and tpr.
thresholds[0]
represents no instances being predicted and is arbitrarily set tomax(y_score) + 1
.

Notes
Since the thresholds are sorted from low to high values, they are reversed upon returning them to ensure they correspond to both
fpr
andtpr
, which are sorted in reversed order during their calculation.References

Examples
>>> import numpy as np >>> from sklearn import metrics >>> y = np.array([1, 1, 2, 2]) >>> scores = np.array([0.1, 0.4, 0.35, 0.8]) >>> fpr, tpr, thresholds = metrics.roc_curve(y, scores, pos_label=2) >>> fpr array([0. , 0. , 0.5, 0.5, 1. ]) >>> tpr array([0. , 0.5, 0.5, 1. , 1. ]) >>> thresholds array([1.8 , 0.8 , 0.4 , 0.35, 0.1 ])
