TP: true positives, TN: true negatives, FN: false negatives, and FP: false positives. Precision: it is the ratio of correctly predicted positive samples to the number of samples estimated in the positive class. Recall: it is the ratio of correctly predicted positive samples the ratio to the number of samples in the true positive class.
