Selective prediction, where a model has the option to abstain from making a decision, is crucial for machine learning applications in which mistakes are costly. In this work, we focus on distributional regression and introduce a framework…

We study a regression problem where for some part of the data we observe both the label variable ($Y$) and the predictors (${\bf X}$), while for other part of the data only the predictors are given. Such a problem arises, for example, when…

This paper shows that the degree of approximate multicollinearity in a linear regression model increases simply by including independent variables, even if these are not highly linearly related. In the current situation where it is…
