Calibrate Confidence with Temperature Scaling

medium
Unit 24 · Calibration0/3 to milestone

Fine-tuned models are often overconfident: they say 99% but are right 80% of the time. Temperature scaling (Guo et al., 2017) fixes this by dividing the logits by a single learned T > 1 before the softmax. It's fitted on a validation set and doesn't change which class is predicted.
