A Survey on Uncertainty Toolkits for Deep Learning
Maximilian Pintz, Joachim Sicking, Maximilian Poretschkin +1
The success of deep learning (DL) fostered the creation of unifying frameworks such as tensorflow or pytorch as much as it was driven by their creation in return. Having common bui…
Tailored Uncertainty Estimation for Deep Learning Systems
Joachim Sicking, Maram Akila, Jan David Schneider +4
Uncertainty estimation bears the potential to make deep learning (DL) systems more reliable. Standard techniques for uncertainty estimation, however, come along with specific combi…
Inspect, Understand, Overcome: A Survey of Practical Methods for AI Safety
Sebastian Houben, Stephanie Abrecht, Maram Akila +38
The use of deep neural networks (DNNs) in safety-critical applications like mobile health and autonomous driving is challenging due to numerous model-inherent shortcomings. These s…
Approaching Neural Network Uncertainty Realism
Joachim Sicking, Alexander Kister, Matthias Fahrland +5
Statistical models are inherently uncertain. Quantifying or at least upper-bounding their uncertainties is vital for safety-critical systems such as autonomous vehicles. While stan…
A Novel Regression Loss for Non-Parametric Uncertainty Optimization
Joachim Sicking, Maram Akila, Maximilian Pintz +3
Quantification of uncertainty is one of the most promising approaches to establish safe machine learning. Despite its importance, it is far from being generally solved, especially…
DenseHMM: Learning Hidden Markov Models by Learning Dense Representations
Joachim Sicking, Maximilian Pintz, Maram Akila +1
We propose DenseHMM - a modification of Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) that allows to learn dense representations of both the hidden states and the observables. Compared to the standa…
Wasserstein Dropout
Joachim Sicking, Maram Akila, Maximilian Pintz +3
Despite of its importance for safe machine learning, uncertainty quantification for neural networks is far from being solved. State-of-the-art approaches to estimate neural uncerta…
Characteristics of Monte Carlo Dropout in Wide Neural Networks
Joachim Sicking, Maram Akila, Tim Wirtz +2
Monte Carlo (MC) dropout is one of the state-of-the-art approaches for uncertainty estimation in neural networks (NNs). It has been interpreted as approximately performing Bayesian…
Efficient Decentralized Deep Learning by Dynamic Model Averaging
Michael Kamp, Linara Adilova, Joachim Sicking +4
We propose an efficient protocol for decentralized training of deep neural networks from distributed data sources. The proposed protocol allows to handle different phases of model…
