arXiv:2509.22907v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Conformal Prediction (CP) is a widely used technique for quantifying uncertainty in machine learning models. In its standard form, CP offers probabilistic guarantees on the coverage of the true label, but it is agnostic to sensitive attributes in the dataset. Several recent works have sought to incorporate fairness into CP by ensuring conditional coverage guarantees across different subgroups. One such method is Conformal Fairness (CF). In this work, we extend the CF framework to the Federated Learning setting and discuss how we can audit a f
The increasing focus on AI fairness and privacy in distributed learning environments necessitates solutions like Federated Conformal Prediction to ensure ethical and robust model deployment.
This development addresses critical concerns around bias and privacy in AI, particularly relevant for applications involving sensitive data from multiple sources.
The ability to audit and ensure fairness in federated learning models provides a crucial tool for responsible AI development and deployment, especially in regulated industries.
