Title
Comparison and Evaluation of Different Methods for Uncertainty Quantification in Machine Learning

Summary
Different methods for uncertainty quantification will be compared to find out which method works the best. This is supposed to help make machine learning safer and easier to use, for example in the health care sector. The methods are supposed to be tested on the PLCO data, to ensure that they work on real life data, not just test sets.

Aims

- compare and evaluate different methods for uncertainty quantification
- evaluate pros and cons of each method
- ensure real life applicability
