Multi-source conformal prediction method uses localization to handle heterogeneous data
A new arXiv paper proposes a conformal prediction approach that draws on multiple heterogeneous data sources rather than treating them as one pool. The method exploits differences between sources through localization, aiming to keep prediction sets reliable when the test distribution departs from any single source. This targets settings where combining sources is useful but naive pooling would break coverage guarantees.
