Selection-Safe Conformal Early Exit: Distribution-Free Coverage under Adaptive Depth
arXiv:2610.20773v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Calibrating a conformal prediction set at each early exit does not preserve coverage once a data-dependent exit is selected. We construct one terminal path score from prefix maxima, calibrate a single split-conformal quantile, and return nested prefix…
