Software Implementation

[edit]

It would be more useful for applied work to reference the implementation in the commonly used Python language Scikit-learn package.

"Well calibrated classifiers are probabilistic classifiers for which the output of the predict_proba method can be directly interpreted as a confidence level. For instance, a well calibrated (binary) classifier should classify the samples such that among the samples to which it gave a predict_proba value close to, say, 0.8, approximately 80% actually belong to the positive class."

Specifically, "sklearn.calibration.CalibratedClassifierCV" which provides "Probability calibration with isotonic regression or logistic regression."
