AWS Certified Machine Learning - Specialty MLS-C01 — Question 273

A data scientist for a medical diagnostic testing company has developed a machine learning (ML) model to identify patients who have a specific disease. The dataset that the scientist used to train the model is imbalanced. The dataset contains a large number of healthy patients and only a small number of patients who have the disease. The model should consider that patients who are incorrectly identified as positive for the disease will increase costs for the company. Which metric will MOST accurately evaluate the performance of this model?
