Uncertainty quantification in classification problems:A Bayesian approach for predicting the effects of further test sampling

The use of machine learning techniques in classification problems has been shown to be useful in many applications. In particular, they have become increasingly popular in land cover mapping applications in the last decade. These maps often play an important role in environmental science applications as they can act as inputs within wider modelling chains and in estimating how the overall prevalence of particular land cover types may be changing
