Position: Uncertainty Quantification Needs Reassessment for Large-language Model Agents

Michael Kirchhof, Gjergji Kasneci, Enkelejda Kasneci

Large-language models (LLMs) and chatbot agents are known to provide wrong outputs at times, and it was recently found that this can never be fully prevented. Hence, uncertainty qu…

Probabilistic Contrastive Learning Recovers the Correct Aleatoric Uncertainty of Ambiguous Inputs

Michael Kirchhof, Enkelejda Kasneci, Seong Joon Oh

Contrastively trained encoders have recently been proven to invert the data-generating process: they encode each input, e.g., an image, into the true latent vector that generated t…

A Non-isotropic Probabilistic Take on Proxy-based Deep Metric Learning

Michael Kirchhof, Karsten Roth, Zeynep Akata +1

Proxy-based Deep Metric Learning (DML) learns deep representations by embedding images close to their class representatives (proxies), commonly with respect to the angle between th…
