The `Maximum Likelihood Prevalence Estimation` (MLPE) method is a lazy method that assumes there is no prior
probability shift between training and test instances (put it other way, that the i.i.d. assumpion holds).
The estimation of class prevalence values for any test sample is always (i.e., irrespective of the test sample
itself) the class prevalence seen during training. This method is considered to be a lower-bound quantifier that
any quantification method should beat.
