Classification Performance of Stacking Ensemble with Meta-Model of Categorical Principal Component Logistic Regression on Food Insecurity Data

Abstrak

Purpose: Stacking is one type of ensemble whose base-models use different algorithms. The classification results from its base-models are categorical and tend to be associated with each other. They then become input for the stacking meta-model. However, there are no currently definite rules for determining the classifier that becomes the meta-model in stacking. On the other hand, recent research has found that CATPCA-LR can work well on categorical predictor variables associated with each other. Therefore, this study focuses on the classification performance of the stacking algorithm with the CATPCA-LR meta-model. Methods: The study compared the classification performance stacking with CATPCA-LR meta-model to stacking with other meta-models (random forest, gradient boost, and logistic regression) and its base-models (random forest, gradient boost, extreme gradient boost, extra trees, light gradient boost). This research used food insecurity data from March 2022. Result: The stacking algorithm with the CATPCA-LR meta-model performs better insecurity data regarding sensitivity, balanced accuracy, F1-Score, and G-Means values. This model offers a sensitivity of 46.28%, a balanced accuracy of 59.82%, an F1-Score of 37.82%, and a G-Means of 58.26%. Meanwhile, regarding specificity values, the light gradient boost (LGB) algorithm gives the highest value compared to other algorithms. This model provides a specificity value of 88.40%. Generally, the stacking with the CATPCA-LR meta-model algorithm provides the best performance compared with other algorithms on food insecurity data. Novelty: This research has explored a stacking classification performance with CATPCA-LR as meta-model.
