CAP - Cumulative Accuracy Profile PDF
The process for plotting and subsequently analysing the CAP curve is as follows:
Step 1: Calculate the total number of observations and plot it on the X-axis
Step 2: Calculate the max number of positives possible (actual positives) and plot on the Y axis
Step 3: Plot the random graph has values predicted linearly throughout the graph
Step 4: Plot the best-case or perfect graph detects all positive outcomes (1) in same number of tries
as positive datapoint counts
Step 5: Plot your model(s) on the graph and select the one that is the closest to the best-fit curve
