take multiple iterations before you are satisfied with the results and ready to
deploy the model.

{kib} also provides the _receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve_ as part
of the model evaluation. The plot compares the true positive rate (y-axis) to
the false positive rate (x-axis) for each class; in this example, `true` and
`false`. From this plot, the area under the curve (AUC) value is computed. It is
a number between 0 and 1. The higher the AUC, the better the model is at
predicting the classes correctly.
