共形化鲁棒优化的最优模型选择AI 解读

In decision-making under uncertainty, Contextual Robust Optimization (CRO) provides reliability by minimizing the worst-case decision loss over a prediction set. While recent advances use conformal prediction to construct prediction sets for machine learning models, the downstream decisions critically depend on model selection. This paper introduces novel model selection frameworks for CRO that unify robustness control with decision risk minimization. We first propose…

通过显著性水平分配聚合保形预测集合AI 解读

Summary Conformal prediction offers a distribution-free framework for constructing prediction sets with finite-sample coverage. Yet efficiently leveraging multiple nonconformity scores to reduce set sizes remains an open challenge. Instead of selecting a single best score, this work introduces a principled aggregation strategy that intersects multiple conformal prediction sets, with confidence levels allocated optimally to minimize the empirical set size while maintaining…

半监督分布学习AI 解读

Abstract This study addresses the challenge of distribution estimation and inference in a semi-supervised setting. In contrast to prior research focusing on parameter inference, this work explores the complexities of semi-supervised distribution estimation, particularly the uniformity problem inherent in functional processes. To tackle this issue, we introduce a versatile framework designed to extract valuable information from unlabelled data by approximating a conditional…

通过预测推断实现最优子抽样AI 解读

In the big data era, subsampling or sub-data selection techniques are often adopted to extract a fraction of informative individuals from the massive data. Existing subsampling algorithms focus mainly on obtaining a representative subset to achieve the best estimation accuracy under a given class of models. In this article, we consider a semi-supervised setting wherein a small or moderate sized “labeled” data is available in addition to a much larger sized “unlabeled” data.…

控制错误覆盖声明率的选择性保形推断AI 解读

SUMMARY Conformal inference is a popular tool for constructing prediction intervals. We consider here the scenario of post-selection/selective conformal inference, that is, prediction intervals are reported only for individuals selected from unlabelled test data. To account for multiplicity, we develop a general split conformal framework to construct selective prediction intervals with the false coverage-statement rate control. We first investigate the false coverage…

支撑集的大规模两样本比较AI 解读

Two-sample multiple testing has a wide range of applications. Most of the literature considers simultaneous tests of equality of parameters. The article takes a different perspective and investigates the null hypotheses that the two support sets are equal. This formulation of the testing problem is motivated by the fact that in many applications where the two parameter vectors being compared are both sparse, one might be more concerned about the detection of differential…

控制错误率的特征筛选阈值选择AI 解读

Hard thresholding rule is commonly adopted in feature screening procedures to screen out unimportant predictors for ultrahigh-dimensional data. However, different thresholds are required to adapt to different contexts of screening problems and an appropriate thresholding magnitude usually varies from the model and error distribution. With an ad-hoc choice, it is unclear whether all of the important predictors are selected or not, and it is very likely that the procedures…

通过错误率控制数据驱动地选择变点数量AI 解读

In multiple change-point analysis, one of the main difficulties is to determine the number of change-points. Various consistent selection methods, including the use of Schwarz information criterion and cross-validation, have been proposed to balance the model fitting and complexity. However, there is lack of systematic approaches to provide theoretical guarantee of significance in determining the number of changes. In this paper, we introduce a data-adaptive selection…

基于模式导向抽样的大规模数据流监测AI 解读

Monitoring large-scale datastreams with limited resources has become increasingly important for real-time detection of abnormal activities in many applications. Despite the availability of large datasets, the challenges associated with designing an efficient change-detection when clustering or spatial pattern exists are not yet well addressed. In this article, a design-adaptive testing procedure is developed when only a limited number of streaming observations can be…
