Why only Micro-F1? Class Weighting of Measures for Relation Classification

David Harbecke, Yuxuan Chen, Leonhard Hennig +1

Relation classification models are conventionally evaluated using only a single measure, e.g., micro-F1, macro-F1 or AUC. In this work, we analyze weighting schemes, such as micro…
