arXiv:2608. 03071v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model agents derive much of their capability from tool use.
The paper introduces Calibration-Aware Uncertainty Cascades (CAUC), a post‑hoc framework that calibrates each model’s confidence independently and uses these calibrated scores to decide when to accept an early prediction, invoke a stronger model, or combine outputs. CAUC establishes a common reliability scale across heterogeneous models, decoupling deployment policies from specific model pools or budgets. Experiments on six language benchmarks show a 1.9% relative accuracy gain over strong‑model‑only inference while cutting strong‑model calls by about 47%, and on image classification it maintains or improves performance while reducing GFLOPs by up to 57%.

arXiv:2608. 09768v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A prediction that is both confident and wrong is a critical reliability failure because it can bypass abstention and human review precisely when the model is mistaken.
arXiv:2603. 14198v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Deploying trustworthy AI systems requires principled uncertainty quantification.
Multimodal foundation models are reshaping edge-cloud visual intelligence from task-specific feature pipelines into token-based interfaces, where edge devices encode visual inputs into tokens for a general-purpose cloud MLLM. However, dense visual-token sequences increase cloud-side inference costs.
arXiv:2606. 29403v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Conformal prediction guarantees marginal coverage, but pooled calibration averages over heterogeneous regions and can mask regional undercoverage in safety-critical subgroups.
