    Non-Parametric Probabilistic Robustness: A Conservative Risk Estimator under Unknown Perturbation Distributions

    Researchers have introduced Non-Parametric Probabilistic Robustness (NPPR), a new metric for evaluating the robustness of deep learning models. Unlike previous methods that assume a known perturbation distribution, NPPR learns this distribution directly from data, offering a more practical assessment under uncertainty. An NPPR estimator using Gaussian Mixture Models was developed, and theoretical analyses show its relationship to existing adversarial and probabilistic robustness metrics. Experiments on standard datasets and various model architectures demonstrate that NPPR provides more conservative robustness estimates. AI

    Minimax Regret Estimation for Generalizing Heterogeneous Treatment Effects with Multisite Data

    Researchers have developed a new statistical methodology for estimating heterogeneous treatment effects across multiple sites. This approach uses a minimax-regret framework to create a generalizable conditional average treatment effect (CATE) model. The method accounts for potential distribution shifts in covariates and treatment effects between sites, offering a more robust alternative to site-specific or pooled analyses. The resulting CATE model is presented as an interpretable weighted average of site-specific models, improving generalizability and robustness as demonstrated in simulations and a real-world application.
