提出在线风险认证机制,实现分布漂移下的安全低成本响应。

Drift-to-Action Controllers: Budgeted Interventions with Online Risk Certificates

  • 用信念模型结合延迟标签生成实时风险上界
  • 风险低于阈值时自动选择低代价操作,否则触发回滚或重训练
  • 在真实流式场景中实现零安全违规与快速恢复

部署的机器学习系统面临分布漂移问题,但多数监控流程仅发出告警,未在标注、计算和延迟约束下明确响应策略。我们提出 Drift2Act,将监控视为带显式安全性的受限决策过程。该系统包含感知层,将无标签监控信号映射为漂移类型的信念;以及主动风险证书,从最近窗口中查询少量延迟标签,生成任意时间有效的风险上界 $U_t(δ)$。当 $U_t(δ) \le τ$ 时,控制器选择低代价动作(如重新校准或测试时适应);当 $U_t(δ) > τ$ 时,则激活放弃/移交,并在冷却期后启动回滚或重训练。在具有标签延迟和显式干预成本的真实流式协议中,Drift2Act 在 WILDS Camelyon17、DomainNet 和受控合成漂移流上实现了近零安全违规与快速恢复,优于仅告警监控、始终自适应、基于计划的重训练、仅选择性预测,以及无证书的消融版本。总体而言,在线风险认证使漂移响应更可靠,并将监控重构为具安全性的决策过程。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Deployed machine learning systems face distribution drift, yet most monitoring pipelines stop at alarms and leave the response underspecified under labeling, compute, and latency constraints. We introduce Drift2Act, a drift-to-action controller that treats monitoring as constrained decision-making with explicit safety. Drift2Act combines a sensing layer that maps unlabeled monitoring signals to a belief over drift types with an active risk certificate that queries a small set of delayed labels from a recent window to produce an anytime-valid upper bound $U_t(δ)$ on current risk. The certificate gates operation: if $U_t(δ) \le τ$, the controller selects low-cost actions (e.g., recalibration or test-time adaptation); if $U_t(δ) > τ$, it activates abstain/handoff and escalates to rollback or retraining under cooldowns. In a realistic streaming protocol with label delay and explicit intervention costs, Drift2Act achieves near-zero safety violations and fast recovery at moderate cost on WILDS Camelyon17, DomainNet, and a controlled synthetic drift stream, outperforming alarm-only monitoring, adapt-always adaptation, schedule-based retraining, selective prediction alone, and an ablation without certification. Overall, online risk certification enables reliable drift response and reframes monitoring as decision-making with safety.
