New cross-fitting method improves statistical inference for machine learning models

A new statistical method called cross-fitting has been developed to address nonregularity issues in model inference. This method, which still adheres to a central limit theorem, requires an adjustment to its asymptotic variance to account for cross-fold correlation. The proposed confidence intervals, designed to estimate this correlation, aim to achieve asymptotically nominal coverage and have shown promising results in simulations with random forests and neural networks.
