Tackling prediction uncertainty in machine learning for healthcare The article emphasizes the need for prediction-uncertainty metrics in healthcare applications, particularly radiology. It discusses the implementation of these metrics in error-intolerant and error-tolerant applications. It provides a framework for understanding prediction uncertainty in healthcare. It highlights the need for machine-learning models with zero tolerance for false-positive…
