I don't understand why in your confusion matrix the denominators of both FPR and FNR is the total size of the test set. Is there a reference for that? Your FPR and FNR are systematically smaller than what most references use for denominators, (FP+TN) for FPR and (FN+TP) for FNR.

Hi, thanks for reading! The post is a bit old and I'm afraid I don't remember where the data came from exactly. But if you just need to practice, any data with a binary outcome should be fine to run the script without errors. Of course the results will be very different... I took note for future posts however, whenever possible I publish the source of the data.

If you'd like to read something similar, I wrote a tutorial on convolutional neural networks in R with the Olivetti dataset (https://firsttimeprogrammer.blogspot.com/2016/08/image-recognition-tutorial-in-r-using.html).

Hey, could you please attach the link for the dataset used. It would be more helpful if we can practice the code using the data set you used.
