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.

The paper introduces a conformal prediction framework designed for molecular property prediction under label shift. By weighting conformal scores with marginal label probability ratios, it generates statistically rigorous prediction intervals without retraining, enabling robust uncertainty quantification when property distributions change. This approach provides actionable confidence measures that improve the reliability of AI-driven predictions in drug discovery.

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.
