Expressive Priors in Bayesian Neural Networks: Kernel Combinations and Periodic Functions

Tim Pearce, Russell Tsuchida, Mohamed Zaki +2

A simple, flexible approach to creating expressive priors in Gaussian process (GP) models makes new kernels from a combination of basic kernels, e.g. summing a periodic and linear…

Bayesian Neural Network Ensembles

Tim Pearce, Mohamed Zaki, Andy Neely

Ensembles of neural networks (NNs) have long been used to estimate predictive uncertainty; a small number of NNs are trained from different initialisations and sometimes on differi…

Uncertainty in Neural Networks: Approximately Bayesian Ensembling

Tim Pearce, Felix Leibfried, Alexandra Brintrup +2

Understanding the uncertainty of a neural network's (NN) predictions is essential for many purposes. The Bayesian framework provides a principled approach to this, however applying…

Bayesian Inference with Anchored Ensembles of Neural Networks, and Application to Exploration in Reinforcement Learning

Tim Pearce, Nicolas Anastassacos, Mohamed Zaki +1

The use of ensembles of neural networks (NNs) for the quantification of predictive uncertainty is widespread. However, the current justification is intuitive rather than analytical…

High-Quality Prediction Intervals for Deep Learning: A Distribution-Free, Ensembled Approach

Tim Pearce, Mohamed Zaki, Alexandra Brintrup +1

This paper considers the generation of prediction intervals (PIs) by neural networks for quantifying uncertainty in regression tasks. It is axiomatic that high-quality PIs should b…
