New Learning-to-Defer methods leverage expert advice and multi-expert collaboration

Researchers have developed new methods for 'Learning-to-Defer' (L2D) systems, which decide whether to make a prediction or consult an expert. The latest advancements address limitations in existing frameworks by allowing systems to not only select an expert but also to provide that expert with additional, context-specific information. New approaches also extend L2D to utilize multiple experts simultaneously, enabling systems to query the top-k most cost-effective entities or adapt the number of experts based on input difficulty.

    Learning-to-Defer with Expert-Conditional Advice

    arXiv:2603.14324v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Learning-to-Defer routes each input to the expert that minimizes expected cost, but it assumes that the information available to every expert is fixed at decision time. Many modern systems violate this assumption: after selectin…

    Beyond Augmented-Action Surrogates for Multi-Expert Learning-to-Defer

    arXiv:2604.09414v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: A learning-to-defer (L2D) system decides, for each input, whether to predict on its own or to hand it to one of several available experts. The very well established recipe trains classifier and router jointly by treating the $K$…

    Why Ask One When You Can Ask $k$? Learning-to-Defer to the Top-$k$ Experts

    arXiv:2504.12988v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Existing Learning-to-Defer (L2D) frameworks are limited to single-expert deferral, forcing each query to rely on only one expert and preventing the use of collective expertise. We introduce the first framework for Top-$k$ …
