arXiv:2509.22907v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Conformal Prediction (CP) is a widely used technique for quantifying uncertainty in machine learning models. In its standard form, CP offers probabilistic guarantees on the coverage of the true label, but it is agnostic to sensi…
arXiv:2606.00690v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Sequential conformal prediction (CP) provides valid uncertainty quantification under the assumption of residual exchangeability. However, this assumption is often violated in real-world time series due to temporal dependencies and d…

arXiv:2509.24100v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Conformal prediction provides distribution-free prediction sets with finite-sample conditional guarantees. We build upon the RKHS-based framework of Gibbs et al. (2023), which leverages families of covariate shifts to prov…
arXiv:2605.24983v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Conformal prediction is a useful and versatile alternative to model calibration in machine learning classification. It replaces single-class prediction with prediction sets, guaranteeing that the \textit{a priori} probability of the…
Bayesian conformal optimisation methods often use the same held-out data both to search for efficient prediction sets and to certify coverage or risk. This coupling is natural for high-probability risk-control guarantees, but it is not necessary when the target is standard finite…
