What are the parameters of a ROC curve?
An ROC curve (receiver operating characteristic curve) is a graph showing the performance of a classification model at all classification thresholds. This curve plots two parameters: True Positive Rate; False Positive Rate; True Positive Rate (TPR) is a synonym for recall and is therefore defined as follows:
What does ROC curve mean in machine learning?
ROC curve. An ROC curve (receiver operating characteristic curve) is a graph showing the performance of a classification model at all classification thresholds. This curve plots two parameters: True Positive Rate; False Positive Rate; True Positive Rate (TPR) is a synonym for recall and is therefore defined as follows:
When to use predict Proba or decision function on ROC curve?
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. Specifies whether to use predict_proba or decision_function as the target response. If set to ‘auto’, predict_proba is tried first and if it does not exist decision_function is tried next.
Which is the positive class for ROC AUC metrics?
Axes object to plot on. If None, a new figure and axes is created. The class considered as the positive class when computing the roc auc metrics. By default, estimators.classes_ [1] is considered as the positive class.

Why do you need a ROC curve for wine?
I’ll be making two models, one a random forest and one a logistic regression, each of which will assign a probability of each wine being “good” or “bad”. An ROC curve will allow us to visualize the true positive rate (sensitivity) vs the false positive rate (specificity).
