New framework tackles document extraction risk control failures

A new research paper introduces a "validity ladder" framework to address failure modes in document extraction systems, particularly concerning selective risk control. The study identifies three key issues: document clustering, score-refit leakage, and tie-mass pathology, which collectively violate the trust contract of these systems. By implementing a fit/val split protocol and Mondrian Learn-then-Test with exact binomial tails, the proposed methods offer per-group PAC certificates and improved risk control, with the "support-bin" provenance taxonomy showing superior performance over learned fusion under specific conditions.

    Valid Per-Field Selective Risk Control for Document Extraction: Three Failure Modes, a Validity Ladder, and When Conditioning Pays

    Per-field selective risk control for document extraction requires a validity ladder with fit/val splits and Mondrian PAC certificates, revealing that support-bin provenance outperforms learned fusion only under specific model conditions.
