Consistent Estimators for Learning to Defer to an Expert

Learning algorithms are often used in conjunction with expert decision makers in practical scenarios, however, this fact is largely ignored when designing these algorithms. In this thesis, we explore how to learn predictors that can either predict or choose to defer the decision to a downstream expe...
