How to choose the right algorithm?

CarlosCV report abuse

I have finished building a pipeline for my DS project (binary classification). Results after running the pipeline show that the best accuracy have both XGBoost and LightGBM algorithms. Which one should I choose? Or which additional metrics can help me to decide which is the best?

Regards

There are several different metrics for classification. Generally, accuracy is considered as a not very reliable metric. You can choose F1 score, precision, recall, ROC AUC metrics for example. It is often enough to look at accuracy, F1 score, and ROC AUC. Also, building a confusion matrix could help.
