متن کاملRisk calculation charts for multiclass prediction models
Methods Binary logistic regression models, where the estimated risk equals p=1/(1+exp(-b0-xb)) can be visualized by representing the contribution of each predictor (x_ib_i) with a colorbar, the color of which represents the value of the contribution. An additional colorbar is used to transform the sum of these contributions to a risk. For multinomial models, the linear predictors (lp_l=b0^l+xb^...
