Brier Score
An evaluation metric for measuring the quality of probabilistic predictions. It computes the mean squared error between predicted probabilities and actual binary outcomes. Lower scores indicate greater predictive accuracy, and the metric is widely used to assess the calibration of forecasting models.

In prediction markets, confidence usually denotes the subjective probability a model assigns to a binary or multinomial outcome and can be calibrated after the fact using metrics such as the Brier score; in LLM-driven systems it is often obtained from model self-assessment or by averaging the logits of multiple samples, with reliability far lower than that of statistical models.
It is recommended to request all options or the full CDF in a single call for multiple-choice and numerical questions and then renormalize, and for other cases to project answers post-hoc onto a self-consistent probability set, as this projection does not worsen the Brier score.
In the held-out prediction task, IRT achieved the best Brier score among the five methods evaluated.
Rolling adaptive rules continuously refit thresholds from historical batches with previously revealed answers, achieving the best average Brier score among all deterministic systems in tests spanning 16 subsequent LLM versions.
The core property of a strictly proper scoring rule is that the expected score is maximized if and only if the forecaster reports the probability they truly believe, with common examples including log-likelihood loss and the Brier score.
All Facts (7)
The Brier score assesses calibration quality by calculating the square of the difference between the predicted probability and the actual outcome, with a lower score indicating more accurate predictions
