Researchers have developed a novel inferential evaluation method for models trained on surrogate labels when gold-standard outcomes are unavailable in the target population. This approach addresses the challenge of assessing model reliability under covariate shift, where the distribution of data differs between sources. The proposed cross-fitted estimators leverage information from labeled source datasets and an unlabeled target dataset through source-specific density ratios, enabling asymptotic inference for key performance metrics like TPR, FPR, and AUC. The method was validated through simulations and retrospective studies on Chatbot Arena and ACS-Income data. AI
