I have a prediction model that will predict Boolean output .this model outputs two  values predicted output  as Boolean as well as a floating point  (suffixed with "_mo").   here this model output is observed as in range of 0-1 can I use this value as percentage.

Hi @KarthikeyanMV 

 

The _mo values represent the actual output of the model and is converted to Boolean 0 or 1 .

So, yes, it can be seen as the likelihood to be 0 or 1.

For example _mo = 0.005 is very likely to be 0 while _mo=0.4 is less likely.

 

Note also that the threshold to decide 0 or 1 is not always 0.5 and depends on the models .
https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article?n=CS295008 gives information to find the actual threshold used.

 

Kind regards
