How to calcuate equal error rate based on predict_proba in Python?

331 Views Asked by At

Let say, I used SVM from sci-kit learn to classify several biometric samples.

It will generate a probability estimate of genuine user and an imposter.

So, from here how do I calculate EER?

What I did so far

for threshold in range_iteration:
    far.append(np.size(np.where(score_imposter >= threshold)) / np.size(score_imposter))
    frr.append(np.size(np.where(score_genuine < threshold)) / np.size(score_genuine))

Please note that the threshold is defined based on the several intervals based on the largest and smallest values from predict_proba.

score_genuine is equal to the probability estimates from the genuine user based on the genuine test samples, focussing on the column of genuine probability. That's I wrote lower than the threshold as false rejection.

While score_imposter is the probability of predicting genuine users but with a score greater than the threshold since I assumed, greater than the threshold is considered as false acceptance.
