You work for a magazine publisher and have been tasked with predicting whether customers will cancel their annual subscription. In your exploratory data analysis, you find that 90% of individuals renew their subscription every year, and only 10% of individuals cancel their subscription. After training a NN Classifier, your model predicts those who cancel their subscription with 99% accuracy and predicts those who renew their subscription with 82% accuracy. How should you interpret these results?

  • A. This is not a good result because the model should have a higher accuracy for those who renew their subscription than for those who cancel their subscription.
  • B. This is not a good result because the model is performing worse than predicting that people will always renew their subscription.
  • C. This is a good result because predicting those who cancel their subscription is more difficult, since there is less data for this group.
  • D. This is a good result because the accuracy across both groups is greater than 80%.
