Rethinking Approximate Gaussian Inference in Classification
In classification tasks, softmax functions are ubiquitously used as output activations to produce predictive probabilities. Such outputs only capture aleatoric uncertainty. To capture epistemic uncert...

Many LLM uncertainty estimators perform similarly, but does that mean they do the same? No! We find that they use different cues, and combining them gives even better performance. 🧵1/5

Thrilled to share our NeurIPS spotlight on uncertainty disentanglement! ✨ We study how well existing methods disentangle different sources of uncertainty, like epistemic and aleatoric. While all tested methods fail at this task, there are promising avenues ahead. 🧵 👇 1/7
