What is "Positive class label" when running automated ML classification job?

Question

Hi there,

I'm following this guide to try the AuotML classification out, when set the classification up, there is one field called "Positive class label" , I'm wondering what is it and any example of how to use it?

I tried searching but seems like no documentation nor example.

Thanks,

Henry

Henry Zhang For binary classification scenarios, AutoML will use the specified positive class when positive label is passed in. Otherwise AutoML will pick a positive class based on target column that is set while configuring the job. This is used to calculate binary metrics that is selected on this page as mentioned in screen shot below:
