arXiv:2607.19689v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study the problem of recalibrating an online predictor [KE17, OKS24]: given an arbitrary "hint" sequence of forecasts, the learner must output new predictions that are calibrated while incurring small excess error relative to the original forecasts, under a proper loss. We give an online algorithm that achieves $(\varepsilon, \varepsilon^2)$-recalibration for Lipschitz proper losses in $T \approx \varepsilon^{-3}$ rounds, using an imbalanced extension of the recent simultaneous Blackwell approachability reduction framework of [HTY26]. We show
