Constrained Classification and Policy Learning

The paper investigates the consistency of surrogate loss methods for classification and policy learning when the set of admissible classifiers is constrained, such as by interpretability or fairness requirements. It shows that hinge loss is the only surrogate that preserves consistency when constraints limit only the prediction set, but consistency can fail if constraints also restrict the functional form. The authors derive conditions guaranteeing consistency for hinge-risk-minimizing classifiers and use these results to design efficient hinge-loss-based procedures for monotone classification problems.

MoPET: Parameter-Efficient Mixture-of-Experts for Unified Medical Image Classification

arXiv:2607. 29462v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Adapting deep learning models to profound clinical heterogeneity typically relies on parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) to avoid the severe overfitting associated with full end-to-end network updates.
