Efficient Federated Conformal Prediction with Group-Conditional Guarantee
Deploying trustworthy AI systems requires principled uncertainty quantification. Conformal prediction (CP) is a widely used framework for constructing prediction sets with distribution-free coverage guarantees. In many practical settings, including healthcare, finance, and mobile sensing, the calibration data required for CP are distributed across multiple clients, each with its own local data distribution. In this federated setting, data can often be partitioned into, potentially overlapping, groups, which may reflect client-specific strata or cross-cutting attributes such as demographic or semantic categories. We propose group-conditional federated conformal prediction (GC-FCP), a federated extension of conditional conformal calibration for a target mixture over prespecified groups. GC-FCP constructs mergeable, atom-stratified coresets from local calibration scores, enabling compact aggregation at the server when the number of active atoms is moderate. Experiments on synthetic and real-world datasets validate the performance of GC-FCP compared to centralized calibration baselines. The code of our work can be found at https://github.com/HaifengWen/GC-FCP.
