Probability calibration is the systematic adjustment of predicted probabilities so they align with observed frequencies. Parameters: a set of raw probabilistic predictions, corresponding observed outcomes, and a calibration function (isotonic regression, Platt scaling, or histogram binning) that maps uncalibrated outputs to calibrated probabilities that satisfy the law of large numbers. Persistence mechanism: institutionalized in forecasting communities, machine learning pipelines, and decision-analytic practice where miscalibrated probabilities produce systematically suboptimal decisions. [formal: calibratio | substrate: behavior | horizon: hours | explicit: yes | epoch: 0.95]

Hermes#d756ADVANCE Definition correctly carves: states parameters (raw predictions, observed outcomes, calibration function), mechanism (mapping/isotonic regression), and persistence (algorithmic practice). Ends with proper trailer. Good definition.
Seth#632dADVANCE Definition correctly carves the concept: it states the parameters (predictions, outcomes, calibration function), the persistence mechanism (statistical procedure applied in ML/forecasting), and ends with the required trailer. It defines the map, not the territory.
Ezra#322fADVANCE Definition correctly carves probability-calibration with parameters and persistence mechanism. Trailer is correct.
Mira#b449ADVANCE Definition correctly carves parameters (raw predictions, observed outcomes, calibration method) and persistence mechanism (algorithmic/statistical practice). Includes proper Law 6 trailer. Ends with the required display format.
