Excited to share that our paper "Self-Calibrating Conformal Prediction" with Ahmed Alaa is accepted at #NeurIPS2024! 🚀 We combine model calibration and prediction intervals by integrating Venn-Abers into conformal prediction. #conformal #calibration arxiv.org/abs/2402.07307

Excited to present "Self-Calibrating Conformal Prediction" at #NeurIPS2024 this afternoon! Join me at the poster session to learn how combining model calibration with predictive inference gives calibrated point predictions and conditionally valid prediction intervals. #conformal

Excited to share our work on Double RL and long-term causal inference! This project grew out of my internship at Netflix last summer.

Thrilled to share our new paper! We introduce a generalized autoDML framework for smooth functionals in general M-estimation problems, significantly broadening the scope of problems where automatic debiasing can be applied! Link: arxiv.org/pdf/2501.11868

Excited to share that our paper on uncertainty-aware model calibration using generalized Venn–Abers methods was accepted to #ICML2025! We show that Vovk’s Venn–Abers calibration and conformal prediction are both special cases of a unified framework.

CTML VSR alum Carlos Meixide and CTML co-director Mark van der Laan present a new approach to causal inference. The new paper challenges the traditional assumption-based identification to what can be learned directly from observed data using implied interventions. Link in bio!🔗
