New framework unifies probability estimation for data-dependent events

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have developed a unified framework for estimating the probability of data-dependent events, a problem that arises in various machine learning contexts. This framework addresses challenges in estimating missing mass, post-selection inference, and the test error of data-trained predictors. The study examines both empirical plug-in and leave-one-out estimators, proposing a hybrid approach for adaptive missing mass estimation that is particularly relevant for predictors combining base classifiers with memorized exceptions. AI

IMPACT This research could lead to more accurate error estimation for machine learning models, particularly those with complex decision-making processes.

    A Unified Framework for Probability Estimation of Data-Dependent Events

    arXiv:2610.41244v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study the general problem of estimating $D(\dde(S))$, the probability that an unknown distribution $D$ assigns to an event determined by a sample $S$ of $n$ i.i.d.\ draws from $D$ through a known mapping $\dde$. The estimation …
