# For binary classification:
# True Positive (TP): correctly predicted positive
# False Positive (FP): predicted positive, actually negative
# False Negative (FN): predicted negative, actually positive
# True Negative (TN): correctly predicted negative

# Precision = TP / (TP + FP)
# "Of all predicted positives, how many were actually positive?"
# Use when false positives are costly (spam filter: don't block legitimate email)

# Recall (Sensitivity) = TP / (TP + FN)
# "Of all actual positives, how many did we catch?"
# Use when false negatives are costly (cancer detection: don't miss cancer)

# F1 = 2 * (Precision * Recall) / (Precision + Recall)
# Harmonic mean — balanced metric when both matter

from sklearn.metrics import precision_score, recall_score, f1_score, classification_report

y_true = [1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0]

from sklearn.model_selection import KFold, StratifiedKFold, cross_val_score
from sklearn.ensemble import RandomForestClassifier

# Problem: single train/test split can be misleading
# Solution: cross-validation — use all data for both training and testing

model = RandomForestClassifier(random_state=42)

# K-Fold (k=5 most common)
cv_scores = cross_val_score(model, X, y, cv=5, scoring='accuracy')
print(f"CV scores: {cv_scores}")
print(f"Mean: {cv_scores.mean():.3f} (+/- {cv_scores.std():.3f})")

# Stratified K-Fold — maintain class balance in each fold (for imbalanced data)
skf = StratifiedKFold(n_splits=5, shuffle=True, random_state=42)
stratified_scores = cross_val_score(model, X, y, cv=skf, scoring='f1')

# Key insight: cross-validation gives a DISTRIBUTION of scores, not a single number
# Use mean ± std to understand model reliability

from sklearn.linear_model import Lasso, Ridge, ElasticNet

# L1 (Lasso): penalty = lambda * |weights|
# Effect: sparse weights — some become exactly 0 (feature selection!)
lasso = Lasso(alpha=0.1)  # alpha = lambda

# L2 (Ridge): penalty = lambda * weights^2
# Effect: all weights shrink toward 0 but don't reach 0
ridge = Ridge(alpha=1.0)

# ElasticNet: combination of L1 + L2
elastic = ElasticNet(alpha=0.1, l1_ratio=0.5)

# For deep learning: Dropout
import torch.nn as nn

model = nn.Sequential(
    nn.Linear(100, 256),
    nn.ReLU(),
    nn.Dropout(p=0.3),    # randomly zero 30% of neurons during training
    nn.Linear(256, 128),
    nn.ReLU(),
    nn.Dropout(p=0.2),
    nn.Linear(128, 1),
)
# At test time, dropout is automatically disabled

# Gradient Descent: update weights in direction that reduces loss
# weights = weights - learning_rate * gradient

# Batch Gradient Descent:
# - Uses ALL training data to compute gradient
# - Stable but slow for large datasets

# Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD):
# - Uses ONE sample per update
# - Fast but noisy/unstable

# Mini-batch SGD (most common):
# - Uses a batch (32, 64, 128, 256 samples) per update
# - Balance of speed and stability

# Adam (most popular optimizer in 2026):
# - Adaptive learning rates per parameter
# - Combines momentum + RMSprop
import torch.optim as optim
optimizer = optim.Adam(model.parameters(), lr=1e-3, weight_decay=1e-4)

# Learning rate schedulers
scheduler = optim.lr_scheduler.ReduceLROnPlateau(optimizer, patience=5, factor=0.5)
# Reduces LR when validation loss stops improving

# Option 2: Undersampling (reduce majority class)

# Option 3: Class weights (tell model to penalize minority mistakes more)

class_weight_dict = {0: weights[0], 1: weights[1]}

from sklearn.ensemble import RandomForestClassifier
model = RandomForestClassifier(class_weight='balanced', random_state=42)

# Option 4: Use appropriate metric
# Don't use accuracy for imbalanced data!
# Use: F1, AUC-ROC, Precision-Recall AUC
