The paper introduces two new methods for conformal prediction when training data are coarsened or partially missing. Robust Split Prediction (RSP) extends doubly robust estimating equations to general coarsening patterns, producing multiply robust prediction sets. Robust Split Conformal Prediction (RSCP) combines semiparametric theory with conformal risk control by fixing a preliminary threshold estimate to restore monotonicity, enabling higher‑order bias‑controlled coverage guarantees. The authors provide theoretical results for various missingness scenarios and demonstrate the methods with simulations and a rheumatoid‑arthritis study.

arXiv:2606. 31915v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While conformal prediction provides a general framework for uncertainty quantification in predictive inference, its application is often limited by computational cost.
arXiv:2606. 31600v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Conformal prediction and its variants, including the split conformal prediction, provide a distribution-free framework for uncertainty quantification by constructing prediction intervals or sets with finite-sample coverage guarantees.

arXiv:2607. 16675v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A point prediction that is well calibrated on average can still be systematically biased conditional on its own value, undermining its use in downstream decision-making.

arXiv:2606. 03600v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Standard conformal prediction (CP) procedures are typically formulated in terms of p-values, but reliance on p-values alone limits flexibility, for example, when combining dependent evidence across models or data splits.

arXiv:2607. 03161v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In selective deployment, practitioners act only on a model-chosen subset of individuals based on predicted conditional average treatment effects, but marginal conformal guarantees need not control reliability on that selected subset.
