1 # Decision Threshold 2 3 ML CH3 4 5 **Definition:** In classical classification, a decision threshold is the position on some line where greater values are classified in some way and lesser value another way. 6 7 When we have a higher threshold it increases precision because things that are less likely to be classified will be considered not part of the set, but in turn doing this also decreases the recall because it is more likely to give false negatives.
