Hello,
When I use Random Forest Classification to predict a probability and apply a threshold to it, is that threshold "frozen" when I then apply real data to the model?
For example, I have made a business decision, I have favoured precision as a metric based on a certain threshold and I want to ensure that the real data uses that threshold.
Many thanks for your help

Hi Vincent,
When you will use the Score or the Predict recipes to predict a dataset with your model, you will be able to use the threshold that you want in the Settings tabs of the recipe as shown in this screenshot :
Hope this helps.

thank you @JeremieP
So when I publish the model and use live data, it will respect the threshold I selected (unless someone changes it), right? What I'm trying to do is prevent the threshold from being changed after I've made a decision.
Yes you're right. The threshold will only change if someone changes it manually or if you retrain your model and deploy a new version of it with a new optimal threshold
