Recall (Sensitivity)/Evidence
Method evidence record

Recall (Sensitivity)

Recall measures the proportion of actual positive cases that were correctly identified by the classifier. It answers the question: 'Of all the cases that were truly positive, how many did we find?' Recall is critical in scenarios where missing positive cases is costly.
