Confidence intervals and conformal predictions are both statistical methods to estimate the range of plausible values for an unknown population parameter. As discussed in Chapter 25, a confidence interval quantifies the level of confidence that a population parameter lies within an interval. For instance, a 95 percent confidence interval for the mean of a population means that if we were to take many samples from the population and calculate the 95 percent confidence interval for ...
