## Abstract (arXiv)

A design-based individual prediction approach is developed based on the expected cross-validation results, given the sampling design and the sample-splitting design for cross-validation. Whether the predictor is selected from an ensemble of models or a weighted average of them, valid inference of the unobserved prediction errors is defined and obtained with respect to the sampling design, while outcomes and features are treated as constants.
