The mean squared error has a famous decomposition into bias and variance.

$$ \text{MSE} = \text{bias}^2 + \text{var} $$

Brier score is also a mean squared error calculation, and Brier score has a decomposition into measure of how well the model is calibrated and how well the model can discriminate between categories.

Can these decompositions be related to each other?

  • @Ggjj11 Could you please point to where that discusses calibration and discrimination? – Dave Nov 28 '23 at 22:01
