Conformal Bayes under Continuous Label Shift: Sensitivity Analysis and the Limits of Exact Validity

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

arXiv:2609. 27976v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Conformal Bayes combines Bayesian posterior predictive scores with conformal calibration, but under continuous label shift both the score and calibration weight depend on the unknown response-marginal density ratio.

Split Conformal Prediction with Label-Shift-Adjusted Bayesian Scores

The paper introduces the Label-Shift-Adjusted Bayesian Score (LSA score), a nonconformity measure for conformal prediction that corrects Bayesian scores under label shift by applying an importance-weighted transformation of the source predictive distribution. Unlike residual-based scores that produce uniform-width intervals, the LSA score yields shorter, adaptive intervals while maintaining comparable coverage in the target domain. Experiments on molecular property prediction demonstrate that the LSA score outperforms both residual-based and source-based Bayesian scores, though all methods experience some coverage loss under stronger shifts due to density-ratio estimation challenges.

Conformal Bayes under Label Shift: Post-Hoc Calibration vs. In-Training Adaptation

Conformal Bayes combines Bayesian posterior predictives with conformal calibration to produce prediction sets that are both statistically valid and geometrically efficient. We study conformal Bayes under label shift from a unified perspective, identifying two complementary approaches that restore nominal target-domain coverage through importance-weighted conformal calibration but operate through independent mechanisms.
