The level of confidence in predictions for a multiclass classifier model based on k-Nearest Neighbor algorithm can be assessed using various techniques, including:
Cross-validation: Cross-validation involves dividing the dataset into smaller subsets and testing the model's performance on these subsets. It helps to assess the model's predictive accuracy and its ability to generalize to unseen data.
Confusion matrix: A confusion matrix is a table that summarizes the number of correct and incorrect predictions made by a classification model. It provides insight into the model's performance and identifies areas where it is making errors.
ROC curve: ROC (Receiver Operating Characteristic) curve depicts the performance of a model by varying the threshold for positive classification. It evaluates the model's sensitivity and specificity and helps to choose the best threshold value.
F1 score: The F1 score is a measure of a model's accuracy that considers both precision and recall. It is calculated by taking the harmonic mean of precision and recall and ranges between 0 and 1.
Confidence interval: A confidence interval is a range of values that is likely to contain the true value of a parameter with a certain level of confidence. For instance, a 95% confidence interval means that if the experiment was repeated 100 times, 95 times the estimate would be in this range. It provides a measure of the variability in the prediction and helps to quantify the uncertainty associated with the model's output.
