How do neural networks use multiclass classification?
In multi-class classification, the neural network has the same number of output nodes as the number of classes. Each output node belongs to some class and outputs a score for that class. Scores from the last layer are passed through a softmax layer. The softmax layer converts the score into probability values.
What is class wise accuracy?
Accuracy is a global measure, and there is no such thing as class-wise accuracy. The suggestions to normalize by true cases (rows) yields something called true-positive rate, sensitivity or recall, depending on the context.
How to model multi class classification using neural networks?
When modeling multi-class classification problems using neural networks, it is good practice to reshape the output attribute from a vector that contains values for each class value to be a matrix with a boolean for each class value and whether or not a given instance has that class value or not.
How are feedforward neural networks used in classification?
Diagrams: The picture below shows two feedforward neural networks, corresponding to these two classification problems.

When to use multi label or multi class classification?
When designing a model to perform a classification task (e.g. classifying diseases in a chest x-ray or classifying handwritten digits) we want to tell our model whether it is allowed to choose many answers (e.g. both pneumonia and abscess) or only one answer (e.g. the digit “8.”)
