Key Takeaways
- 0.25% of all SARS-CoV-2 infections in people were detected in the first week after symptoms began in the study period
- 14.7% of participants without symptoms were PCR positive
- 44.2% of infections occurred from presymptomatic individuals
- During the early phase, the probability of recall of test results was 0.42 (42%) among survey respondents
- In a national survey, 32% of respondents reported they did not remember when their last eye exam occurred
- In an EHR-linked study, 73% of patients accurately recalled their medication list
- In the original ID3 algorithm’s decision tree example, entropy is reduced from 1.0 to 0.0 after splitting on the attribute with information gain 1.0
- In scikit-learn, recall is defined as tp/(tp+fn)
- In scikit-learn documentation, recall_score supports averaging='macro' to compute unweighted mean over labels
- The CDC reports 94% of U.S. adults reported being in contact with a doctor at least once in the past year (health care access survey)
- The US USPSTF recommends breast cancer screening: 2024 draft recommendation for women aged 40-74 (screening interval 2 years)
- USPSTF recommends colorectal cancer screening for adults 45-75, with annual FIT or colonoscopy intervals (1 year for FIT)
- In the “TREC Precision-Recall” experiments, recall is plotted on x-axis from 0 to 1
- In the standard IR definition, recall = TP/(TP+FN) equals sensitivity for retrieval contexts
- The Recall metric in recommendation systems is “fraction of relevant items retrieved”; definition is stated in RecBole docs
Recall is unreliable: infections, tests, vaccines, and meds often forgotten or misremembered.
