arXiv:2505.15437v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reliable probability estimates by classifiers are essential in high-risk applications. In practice, however, predicted probabilities are often miscalibrated, and many existing post-hoc calibration methods typically lack guarantees that a specific notion of calibration is achieved after the correction procedure is applied. We introduce a set-based perspective on calibration through the notion of cumulative mass calibration and the corresponding error measures. We propose a new calibration procedure based on conformal prediction that form
The increasing deployment of AI in high-stakes environments is driving a critical need for explainable and reliable model outputs, making calibration research particularly timely.
Improved calibration methods for AI classifiers are crucial for building trust and ensuring safe, auditable deployment in sensitive applications like finance, healthcare, and autonomous systems.
This research introduces new theoretical guarantees for calibration, moving beyond heuristic post-hoc corrections towards more robust and predictable performance of AI models.
