New ACPNN framework offers adaptive uncertainty estimates for image regression models

Researchers have developed Adaptive Conformal Prediction using Nearest Neighbors (ACPNN), a new framework designed to provide input-dependent uncertainty estimates for image regression models. This method leverages information from neighboring samples to adapt uncertainty quantification locally, making it suitable for high-stakes applications where model outputs inform critical decisions. ACPNN was demonstrated on a diffusion model used to emulate inertial confinement fusion simulations, showing its effectiveness in providing reliable and adaptive uncertainty estimates. AI

IMPACT Enhances reliability of AI models in scientific applications by providing crucial uncertainty quantification.

    Adaptive Conformal Prediction for Image Regression Models with Application to an Inertial Confinement Fusion Emulator

    arXiv:2610.00535v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Uncertainty quantification is critical in scientific machine learning, where black-box, image-based models are increasingly deployed in high-stakes settings. In many such applications, model outputs inform costly decisions, yet most…
