Abstract: Abstract This chapter considers unitary measures of test outcome which can be derived from the 2 × 2 contingency table. In different disciplines, different measures are typically used, for example Youden index in medical decision making and F measure in information retrieval and machine learning. Of these various measures, Matthews’ correlation coefficient may be the optimal choice.
