Overview

About

Maintained by Yachong YangFirst published 2021-08-091 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

An implementation of efficiency first conformal prediction (EFCP) and validity first conformal prediction (VFCP) that demonstrates both validity (coverage guarantee) and efficiency (width guarantee). To learn how to use it, check the vignettes for a quick tutorial. The package is based on the work by Yang Y., Kuchibhotla A.,(2021) arxiv:2104.13871.

grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
