Unveil Sources of Uncertainty: Feature Contribution to ConformalPrediction Intervals

With Marouane Il Idrissi, Agathe Fernandes Machado and Ewen Gallic, we recently uploaded a paper “Unveil Sources of Uncertainty: Feature Contribution to Conformal Prediction Intervals” on ArXiv. Cooperative game theory methods, notably Shapley values, have significantly enhanced machine learning (ML) interpretability. However, existing explainable AI (XAI) frameworks mainly attribute average model predictions, overlooking predictive uncertainty. This work addresses that gap by proposing a novel, model-agnostic uncertainty attribution (UA) method grounded in conformal prediction …
