Bayesian classification and regression trees for predicting incidence of cryptosporidiosis: confusion or loss matrix - classification of observed versus predicted presence and absences from the Bayesian CART model

Viewed: 1648
This dataset was gathered to predict the spatial distribution of the cryptosporidiosis infection using selected social-ecological factors and climate variables. Predictions were completed using a Bayesian CART (Classification and Regression Trees) model.

The dataset presents the confusion or loss matrix – classification of observed versus predicted presence (‘Yes’) and absences (‘No’) from the Bayesian CART model.
