Conformal prediction for reliable machine learning theory, adaptations, and applications

"Traditional, low-dimensional, small scale data have been successfully dealt with using conventional software engineering and classical statistical methods, such as discriminant analysis, neural networks, genetic algorithms and others. But the change of scale in data collection and the dimensionality of modern data sets has profound implications on the type of analysis that can be done. Recently several kernel-based machine learning algorithms have been developed for dealing with high-dimensional problems, where a large number of features could cause a combinatorial explosion. These methods are quickly gaining popularity, and it is widely believed that they will help to meet the challenge of analysing very large data sets. Learning machines often perform well in a wide range of applications and have nice theoretical properties without requiring any parametric statistical assumption about the source of data (unlike traditional statistical techniques). However, a typical drawback of many machine learning algorithms is that they usually do not provide any useful measure of confidence in the predicted labels of new, unclassifed examples. Confidence estimation is a well-studied area of both parametric and non-parametric statistics; however, usually only low-dimensional problems are considered"--

  • "The conformal predictions framework is a recent development in machine learning that can associate a reliable measure of confidence with a prediction in any real-world pattern recognition application, including risk-sensitive applications such as medical diagnosis, face recognition, and financial risk prediction. Conformal Predictions for Reliable Machine Learning: Theory, Adaptations and Applications captures the basic theory of the framework, demonstrates how to apply it to real-world problems, and presents several adaptations, including active learning, change detection, and anomaly."
  • "As practitioners and researchers around the world apply and adapt the conformal predictions framework, this edited volume brings together these bodies of work, providing a springboard for further research as well as a handbook for application in real-world problems. It will help the reader: understand the theoretical foundations of this important framework that can provide a reliable measure of confidence with predictions in machine learning; apply this framework to real-world problems in different machine learning settings, including classification, regression, and clustering; learn effective ways of adapting the framework to newer problem settings, such as active learning, model selection, anomaly detection or change detection. --"
