Researchers have developed a new framework for predictive models that can abstain from making predictions when uncertainty is high, specifically addressing epistemic uncertainty caused by limited data. This approach builds on Bayesian learning to minimize expected regret, allowing models to reject inputs where the available training data is insufficient for a reliable prediction. This is presented as the first principled method for learning predictors that can identify such data-deficient scenarios. AI
