# Why "hard" subset matters for production:
# Real-world conditions are rarely "easy"
# - Security cameras: Often distant, angled, partially occluded
# - Photo albums: Mix of all conditions
# - Surveillance: Worst-case scenarios are most important
# If hard subset < 0.7, expect production accuracy issues

# Understanding detection trade-offs
precision = true_positives / (true_positives + false_positives)
recall = true_positives / (true_positives + false_negatives)

# Security application example:
security_high_recall = {
    'recall': 0.98,           # Catch 98% of actual faces
    'precision': 0.75,        # 25% false alarms

    'precision': 0.99,        # Only 1% false positives
    'result': 'Fewer false unlocks, some failed authentications'
}

# Tuning decision:
# Security system: Prefer high recall (catch all threats, review false alarms)
# Authentication: Prefer high precision (avoid false unlocks, user retries OK)
# Photo organization: Balance both (some misses OK, some false tags OK)

# Security system false positive analysis

# Plus: Alert fatigue, missed real threats, system distrust

# Mitigation strategies:

# - Confidence scoring (only alert on high-confidence detections)

# Attendance system false negative analysis
students_per_day = 500
false_negative_rate = 0.08        # 8% missed detections

# Operational impact:
missed_attendance_per_day = students_per_day * false_negative_rate  # 40 students
manual_correction_time = 120      # 2 minutes per correction
daily_admin_time = 40 * 120 / 3600  # 1.33 hours per day

system_trust_degradation = 0.4    # 40% less trust in automated system
manual_sign_in_adoption = 0.6     # 60% switch to manual process
# Result: Automated system becomes obsolete, wasted investment
