In machine learning, Platt scaling or Platt calibration is a way of transforming the outputs of a classification model into a probability distribution over classes.The method was invented by John Platt in the context of support vector machines, [1] replacing an earlier method by Vapnik, but can be applied to other classification models. [2]
It is a generalization of the gamma distribution which has one shape parameter (and a scale parameter). Since many distributions commonly used for parametric models in survival analysis (such as the exponential distribution , the Weibull distribution and the gamma distribution ) are special cases of the generalized gamma, it is sometimes used ...
Animation showing the effects of a scale parameter on a probability distribution supported on the positive real line. Effect of a scale parameter over a mixture of two normal probability distributions. If the probability density exists for all values of the complete parameter set, then the density (as a function of the scale parameter only ...
The Nakagami distribution or the Nakagami-m distribution is a probability distribution related to the gamma distribution. The family of Nakagami distributions has two parameters: a shape parameter / and a scale parameter >. It is used to model physical phenomena such as those found in medical ultrasound imaging, communications engineering ...
The Gompertz distribution is a flexible distribution that can be skewed to the right and to the left. Its hazard function = is a convex function of (;,).The model can be fitted into the innovation-imitation paradigm with = as the coefficient of innovation and as the coefficient of imitation.
In probability theory and statistics, the raised cosine distribution is a continuous probability distribution supported on the interval [, +].The probability density function (PDF) is
In probability and statistics, a compound probability distribution (also known as a mixture distribution or contagious distribution) is the probability distribution that results from assuming that a random variable is distributed according to some parametrized distribution, with (some of) the parameters of that distribution themselves being random variables.
In probability and statistics, the log-logistic distribution (known as the Fisk distribution in economics) is a continuous probability distribution for a non-negative random variable. It is used in survival analysis as a parametric model for events whose rate increases initially and decreases later, as, for example, mortality rate from cancer ...
