> *Make threshold mandatory*
> Currently, the output of predict for an example is either the score
> or the class. This side-effect is caused by clearThreshold. To
> clarify that behaviour three different types of predict (predictScore,
> predictClass, predictProbabilty) were introduced; the threshold is not
> longer optional.
> *Clarify classification interfaces*
> Currently, some functionality is spreaded over multiple models.
> In order to clarify the structure and simplify the implementation of
> more complex models (like multinomial logistic regression), two new
> classes are introduced:
> - BinaryClassificationModel: for all models that derives a binary classification from a single weight vector. Comprises the tresholding functionality to derive a prediction from a score. It basically captures SVMModel and LogisticRegressionModel.
> - ProbabilitistClassificaitonModel: This trait defines the interface for models that return a calibrated confidence score (aka probability).
> *Misc*
> - some renaming
> - add test for probabilistic output
