Explanation

What are different methods to minimize False Negatives and False Positives in Binary One of the easiest methods to minimize the outcomes of a certain case is simply changing the decision boundary line from the basic 0.5 to above (when reducing False Positives) or below (when reducing False Negatives). It should be noted that by doing this, the possibility of False Positives increases. In other words, by decreasing the False Negatives we are increasing the False Positives.
