Researchers have introduced a new paradigm called recertification, designed to improve statistical procedures by leveraging unused risk budgets. This method builds upon the e-value representation of risk-controlled decisions and the e-closure principle for multiple testing. Two key applications are detailed: one for conformal risk control with known loss families, which redistributes unused risk budget to create a more efficient controller, and another for false discovery rate control with dependent e-values, which yields a closed-form randomized procedure that is more powerful than existing methods. Experiments on CIFAR-100 and other simulations show improved budget utilization and power compared to baseline approaches. AI
