The default 0.5 threshold is not the optimal solution for any metric; threshold choice should be based on the cost of misjudgment—when missing positive samples is costly, move the threshold left to raise recall, and when false positives are costly, move it right to raise precision.

VerifiedSetting the threshold for semantic caching involves a trade-off: a threshold that is too high results in a low hit rate, while one that is too low may incorrectly map semantically different questions and cause response quality issues.79% similarUnverifiedIf no threshold can achieve the target precision at a reasonable recall, the problem is not the threshold—a re-ranker or better chunking is needed instead.78% similarUnverifiedThreshold selection should reflect the task, the available resources, and the relative costs of the two types of errors: when the cost of a miss is extremely high, one tends to lower the threshold to raise recall, and when human review capacity is limited, precision and PR behavior become critical; the AUC value itself will not choose the threshold for you.78% similarUnverifiedThe key difficulty of data volume threshold control lies in threshold setting: too low causes frequent false positives, while too high may miss slow, sustained low-rate exfiltration.75% similar
