These data science statistics measure the effectiveness of Segment's predictions when tested against historical data. For more information, refer to [ROC Curve and AUC](https://developers.google.com/machine-learning/crash-course/classification/roc-and-auc){:target="_blank"}, [The Lift Curve in Machine Learning](https://howtolearnmachinelearning.com/articles/the-lift-curve-in-machine-learning/){:target="_blank"}, and [Intuition behind log-loss score](https://towardsdatascience.com/intuition-behind-log-loss-score-4e0c9979680a){:target="_blank"}.

The created trait value represents the user's percentile cohort. This value refreshes every seven days. If you see `0.85` on a user's profile, this means the user is in the 85th percentile, or the top 15% for the Predictive Trait.
