ENVIConfusionMatrix::RowTotals

The RowTotals function method returns the totals of each row in the confusion matrix.

The row totals correspond to the number of predicted values in each class. In the example confusion matrix, the row totals are computed as follows:

Asphalt: 2385 + 4 + 0 + 1 + 4 = 2394

Concrete: 0 + 332 + 0 + 0 + 1 = 333

Grass: 0 + 1 + 908 + 8 + 0 = 917

Tree: 0 + 0 + 0 + 1084 + 9 = 1093

Building: 12 + 0 + 0 + 6 + 2053 = 2071

Example

The code example below evaluates classifications using a confusion matrix.

    COMPILE_OPT IDL2

    ; Start the application

    e = ENVI()

    File = Filepath('qb_boulder_msi', Subdir=['data'], $

Syntax

Result = ENVIConfusionMatrix.RowTotals([, ERROR=variable])

Return Value

This function method returns the row totals from the confusion matrix.

Arguments

None

Keywords

ERROR (optional)

Set this keyword to a named variable that will contain any error message issued during execution of this routine. If no error occurs, the ERROR variable will be set to a null string (''). If an error occurs and the routine is a function, then the function result will be undefined.

When this keyword is not set and an error occurs, ENVI returns to the caller and execution halts. In this case, the error message is contained within !ERROR_STATE and can be caught using IDL's CATCH routine. See IDL Help for more information on !ERROR_STATE and CATCH.

See Manage Errors for more information on error handling in ENVI programming.
