Table 1 Definition of accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and NPV in the per-image analysis (per-lesion analysis)

From: Convolutional neural network-based system for endocytoscopic diagnosis of early gastric cancer

Parameter

Definition

Accuracy

Correctly diagnosed images (lesions) by the CNN or endoscopists/total images (lesions)

Sensitivity

Correctly diagnosed EGC images (lesions) by the CNN or endoscopists /total EGC images (lesions)

Specificity

Correctly diagnosed NGM images (lesions) by the CNN or endoscopists /total NGM images (lesions)

PPV

Correctly diagnosed images (lesions) by the CNN or endoscopists/total images (lesions) diagnosed as EGC by the CNN or endoscopists

NPV

Correctly diagnosed EGC images (lesions) by the CNN or endoscopists /total images (lesions) diagnosed as NGM by the CNN or endoscopists

  1. PPV, positive predictive value; NPV, negative predictive value; CNN, convolutional neural network; EGC, early gastric cancer; NGM, noncancerous gastric mucosa
