Cluster Frequency Conformal Prediction for Local Coverage

Tomer Lavi, Bracha Shapira, Nadav Rappoport

Conformal prediction provides distribution-free coverage guarantees, but in many-class classification it may still under-cover specific classes or subpopulations, preventing safe d…

Trajectory-Based Difficulty Scoring for Reliable Learning on Tabular Data

Tomer Lavi, Bracha Shapira, Nadav Rappoport

Gradient-boosted trees achieve strong performance on tabular data, yet often leave a long tail of poorly predicted instances. We introduce a Trajectory-based Difficulty Score (TDS)…

Clustered Calibration: Representation-Aware Probability Calibration via Learned Subpopulations

Tomer Lavi, Bracha Shapira, Nadav Rappoport

Ensuring that predicted probabilities align with observed frequencies is critical in high-stakes domains such as clinical decision support, autonomous driving and financial risk as…

EncodeRec: An Embedding Backbone for Recommendation Systems

Guy Hadad, Neomi Rabaev, Bracha Shapira

Recent recommender systems increasingly leverage embeddings from large pre-trained language models (PLMs). However, such embeddings exhibit two key limitations: (1) PLMs are not ex…

SHAPoint: Task-Agnostic, Efficient, and Interpretable Point-Based Risk Scoring via Shapley Values

Tomer D. Meirman, Bracha Shapira, Noa Dagan +1

Interpretable risk scores play a vital role in clinical decision support, yet traditional methods for deriving such scores often rely on manual preprocessing, task-specific modelin…

Forget What You Know about LLMs Evaluations -- LLMs are Like a Chameleon

Nurit Cohen-Inger, Yehonatan Elisha, Bracha Shapira +2

Large language models (LLMs) often appear to excel on public benchmarks, but these high scores may mask an overreliance on dataset-specific surface cues rather than true language u…
