arXiv:2605.28920v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Conformal prediction (CP) and its extension, conformal risk control (CRC), are established frameworks for quantifying uncertainty in supervised machine learning through formal guarantees. However, recent breakthroughs in artificial intelligence (AI) have been driven by unsupervised generative models, such as large language models (LLMs) and image generators, which are not directly compatible with CP or CRC. In this work we introduce conformal generation (Conf-Gen), a general framework adapting CRC to generative tasks while relaxing its theoretica
The rapid advancement of unsupervised generative models like LLMs necessitates robust uncertainty quantification methods to ensure their reliability and trustworthiness, driving research in this area.
Reliable uncertainty quantification for generative AI is crucial for their deployment in high-stakes applications, affecting trust, regulatory compliance, and broader adoption across industries.
This framework offers a principled way to assess the confidence of outputs from generative AI, potentially accelerating their integration into sensitive tasks where errors are costly.
