New framework automates statistical test for algorithms

Researchers have developed AutoSI, a novel framework designed to automate the process of generating statistically valid p-values for hypotheses selected by algorithms. This approach eliminates the need for manual derivation of selection events, which has previously limited the application of exact selective inference (SI) to a narrow class of algorithms. AutoSI can handle algorithms expressed through rational functions of data, expanding the scope of SI beyond linear or quadratic inequalities. Experiments demonstrate that AutoSI effectively controls type I error rates while maintaining high statistical power. AI

IMPACT This development could streamline hypothesis testing in machine learning, enabling broader application of selective inference for algorithm development.
