Overview of this book

Organizations these days need to integrate popular big data tools such as Apache Spark with highly efficient deep learning libraries if they’re looking to gain faster and more powerful insights from their data. With this book, you’ll discover over 80 recipes to help you train fast, enterprise-grade, deep learning models on Apache Spark. Each recipe addresses a specific problem, and offers a proven, best-practice solution to difficulties encountered while implementing various deep learning algorithms in a distributed environment. The book follows a systematic approach, featuring a balance of theory and tips with best practice solutions to assist you with training different types of neural networks such as convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and recurrent neural networks (RNNs). You’ll also have access to code written in TensorFlow and Keras that you can run on Spark to solve a variety of deep learning problems in computer vision and natural language processing (NLP), or tweak to tackle other problems encountered in deep learning. By the end of this book, you'll have the skills you need to train and deploy state-of-the-art deep learning models on Apache Spark.

Evaluating model performance


We are ready to evaluate our model and see how well we can distinguish between Messi and Ronaldo.

Getting ready

Since we will be doing some model evaluation, we will need to import the following library:

  • MulticlassClassificationEvaluator

How to do it...

The following section walks through the following steps to evaluate model performance:

  1. Execute the following script to create a confusion matrix from the predictDF dataframe:
predictDF.crosstab('prediction', 'label').show().
  1. Calculate an accuracy score based on our 24 test images of Ronaldo and Messi by executing the following script:
from pyspark.ml.evaluation import MulticlassClassificationEvaluator

scoring = predictDF.select("prediction", "label")
accuracy_score = MulticlassClassificationEvaluator(metricName="accuracy")
rate = accuracy_score.evaluate(scoring)*100
print("accuracy: {}%" .format(round(rate,2))).

How it works...

The following section explains how we evaluate the model performance. Take a look at these images...
