Mysteries of the Deep: Role of Intermediate Representations in Out of Distribution Detection
I. M. De la Jara, C. Rodriguez-Opazo, D. Teney +2
Out-of-distribution (OOD) detection is essential for reliably deploying machine learning models in the wild. Yet, most methods treat large pre-trained models as monolithic encoders…
Do We Always Need the Simplicity Bias? Looking for Optimal Inductive Biases in the Wild
Damien Teney, Liangze Jiang, Florin Gogianu +1
Neural architectures tend to fit their data with relatively simple functions. This "simplicity bias" is widely regarded as key to their success. This paper explores the limits of t…
AugGen: Synthetic Augmentation using Diffusion Models Can Improve Recognition
Parsa Rahimi, Damien Teney, Sebastien Marcel
The increasing reliance on large-scale datasets in machine learning poses significant privacy and ethical challenges, particularly in sensitive domains such as face recognition. Sy…
Scalable Ensemble Diversification for OOD Generalization and Detection
Alexander Rubinstein, Luca Scimeca, Damien Teney +1
Training a diverse ensemble of models has several practical applications such as providing candidates for model selection with better out-of-distribution (OOD) generalization, and…
