Precision - Recall plot using 15 values

[anwarMZ]

Hi,

I am trying to understand how to use this package based on the results that i have. Hopefully you can help a bit.
I have two classifiers and calculated precision and recall at 15 different threshold for each of them.

Classifier 1
Threshold - Recall - Precision
1 - 0.xxx - 0.xxx
2 - 0.xxx - 0.xxx
3 - 0.xxx - 0.xxx
.....
15 - 0.xxx - 0.xxx

Classifier 2
Threshold - Recall - Precision
1 - 0.xxx - 0.xxx
2 - 0.xxx - 0.xxx
3 - 0.xxx - 0.xxx
.....
15 - 0.xxx - 0.xxx

But i am not sure how to plot sscurves for it. Do i have to calculate F1 scores and use them as scores?
What are the positive and negative values as in data P10N10? Labels i assume would be the threshold values?

Would be really helpful if you can direct me towards the solution.

Cheers,
Zohaib

It seems like that you have already calculated precision and recall values yourself. You can simply make a plot with R's regular plot and lines functions if you are interested in creating precision-recall curves.

plot(x = your_df1[, 2], y = your_df1[, 3], type = "l", xlim = c(0, 1), ylim = c(0,1))
lines(x = your_df2[, 2], y = your_df2[, 3], type = "l")

You need at least two types of data if you want to use precrec to calculate precision-recall curves - the scores that the classifiers of your interest has produced from your test data and the labels from the same test data - as you can see them in P10N10 as an example.
