Online Localized Conformal Prediction
Conformal prediction is a framework that provides valid uncertainty quantification for general models with exchangeable data. However, in the online learning and time-series settings, exchangeability is not satisfied. Existing online conformal methods, such as adaptive conformal inference (ACI), can achieve long-run validity, yet they remain inefficient under covariate heterogeneity because they rely on global calibration. We propose \emph{Online Localized Conformal Prediction (OLCP)}, which combines online adaptation with covariate-dependent localization to better reflect heterogeneity. To reduce sensitivity to the localization bandwidth, we further develop \emph{OLCP-Hedge}, which perfo...
