Multiclass Classification

Multiclass classification models predict one of more than two outcomes. In Aporia, these models are represented with the multiclass model type.

Examples of multiclass classification problems:

  • Is this product a book, movie, or clothing?

  • Is this movie a romantic comedy, documentary, or thriller?

  • Which category of products is most interesting to this customer?
