  Hi,

  It is the confidence level of the underlying machine learning model.  Here is some more information:

  Technically only for the Bayes classifier the confidence equals a probablity but it has a similar meaning for all other models as well.  For example in an SVM, the confidence is typically computed based on the distance of the data point to the separating hyperplane.

  Hope that helps,

  Ingo

  First of all: please stop double posting.  Spamming the community is not going to get you help faster, it will only annoy people. 
  

  I would recommend to go through some data science training, our new Academy site may be useful: http://academy.rapidminer.com

  This video in particular covers some of the questions you have but there is more to discover:

  A book like Elements of Statistical Learning may be helpful as well:
