Policy-driven Conformal Prediction for Trustworthy QoT Estimation
Paper in proceeding, 2026
We propose Conformal QoT, a policy-driven framework that combines statistically guaranteed QoT estimation with operational decision policies, enabling reliable lightpath-feasibility predictions under domain shift and improving accuracy from 92% to 99.6% on open datasets.
