hi Joseph, yes I would vote for it. More generally probability calibration has been on the wish list for some time now. See this old PR that needs some love: https://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn/pull/1176 any help on this one too is more than welcome. Best, Alex

[Scikit-learn-general] predict_proba for LinearSVC and platt scaling

2014-02-19 Thread Joseph Perla
LinearSVC does not have predict_proba() and predict_log_proba() implementations, but SVC does. This is because liblinear does not have calibrated probabilities as an option but libsvm does. Would it be okay if I add a classifier mixin to core that adds Platt Scaling into the LinearSVC? I already
