New omniprediction method offers quantile forecasts for multiple losses

Researchers have developed a new method for constructing predictors that are accurate across multiple evaluation metrics, a concept known as omniprediction. This approach focuses on forecasts expressed as quantiles for discrete outcomes and offers sample-efficient algorithms that can adapt to dynamic environments. The procedure is designed to account for multiple losses simultaneously, providing rich information for risk assessment and decision-making, and has been demonstrated in an example using COVID-19 hospitalization forecasts.

    Online Quantile Omniprediction for Proper Losses

    arXiv:2610.21342v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The task of constructing a predictor that is simultaneously accurate under multiple evaluation metrics has been popularized recently under the name omniprediction. Prior work in this area has largely focused on binary prediction tas…
