arXiv Study Benchmarks Non-Conformity Score Functions for Conformal Prediction
A revised arXiv preprint surveys and compares non-conformity score functions used in conformal prediction for classification. Conformal prediction generates prediction sets rather than single labels, with guarantees that the sets cover the true class at a chosen rate. The work evaluates how different scoring choices affect the efficiency and validity of those sets.
