Inductive Venn-Abers and related regressors

Venn-Abers predictors are probabilistic predictors that enjoy appealing properties of validity, but their major limitation is that they are applicable only to the case of binary classification, with a recent extension to bounded regression. We generalize them to the case of unbounded regression, which requires adding an element of conformal prediction. In our simulation and empirical studies we investigate the predictive efficiency of point regressors derived from Venn-Abers regressors and argue that they somewhat improve the predictive efficiency of standard regressors for larger training sets.

Retrain or not retrain: Conformal test martingales for change-point detection

We argue for supplementing the process of training a prediction algorithm by setting up a scheme for detecting the moment when the distribution of the data changes and the algorithm needs to be retrained. Our proposed schemes are based on exchangeability martingales, i.e., processes that are martingales under any exchangeable distribution for the data. Our method, based on conformal prediction, is general and can be applied on top of any modern prediction algorithm. Its validity is guaranteed, and in this paper we make first steps in exploring its efficiency.

Criteria of efficiency for conformal prediction

We study optimal conformity measures for various criteria of efficiency of classification in an idealised setting. This leads to an important class of criteria of efficiency that we call probabilistic; it turns out that the most standard criteria of efficiency used in literature on conformal prediction are not probabilistic unless the problem of classification is binary. We consider both unconditional and label-conditional conformal prediction.

Large-scale probabilistic predictors with and without guarantees of validity

This paper studies theoretically and empirically a method of turning machine-learning algorithms into probabilistic predictors that automatically enjoys a property of validity (perfect calibration) and is computationally efficient. The price to pay for perfect calibration is that these probabilistic predictors produce imprecise (in practice, almost precise for large data sets) probabilities. When these imprecise probabilities are merged into precise probabilities, the resulting predictors, while losing the theoretical property of perfect calibration, are consistently more accurate than the existing methods in empirical studies.

Venn-Abers predictors

This paper continues study, both theoretical and empirical, of the method of Venn prediction, concentrating on binary prediction problems. Venn predictors produce probability-type predictions for the labels of test objects which are guaranteed to be well calibrated under the standard assumption that the observations are generated independently from the same distribution. We give a simple formalization and proof of this property. We also introduce Venn-Abers predictors, a new class of Venn predictors based on the idea of isotonic regression, and report promising empirical results both for Venn-Abers predictors and for their more computationally efficient simplified version.
