Constrained Co-Design for Photonic Bayesian Neural Networks
Hendrik Borras, Xiao Wang, Bernhard Klein +4
Classical neural networks frequently produce overconfident predictions on ambiguous or out-of-distribution (OOD) data, a liability that grows with each AI system deployed in safety…
Probabilistic Photonic Computing
Frank Brückerhoff-Plückelmann, Anna P. Ovvyan, Akhil Varri +8
Probabilistic computing excels in approximating combinatorial problems and modelling uncertainty. However, using conventional deterministic hardware for probabilistic models is cha…
Uncertainty-Preserving QBNNs: Multi-Level Quantization of SVI-Based Bayesian Neural Networks for Image Classification
Hendrik Borras, Yong Wu, Bernhard Klein +1
Bayesian Neural Networks (BNNs) provide principled uncertainty quantification but suffer from substantial computational and memory overhead compared to deterministic networks. Whil…
Uncertainty Reasoning with Photonic Bayesian Machines
F. Brückerhoff-Plückelmann, H. Borras, S. U. Hulyal +12
Artificial intelligence (AI) systems increasingly influence safety-critical aspects of society, from medical diagnosis to autonomous mobility, making uncertainty awareness a centra…
Accelerated Execution of Bayesian Neural Networks using a Single Probabilistic Forward Pass and Code Generation
Bernhard Klein, Falk Selker, Hendrik Borras +3
Machine learning models perform well across domains such as diagnostics, weather forecasting, NLP, and autonomous driving, but their limited uncertainty handling restricts use in s…
Resource-Efficient and Robust Inference of Deep and Bayesian Neural Networks on Embedded and Analog Computing Platforms
Bernhard Klein
While modern machine learning has transformed numerous application domains, its growing computational demands increasingly constrain scalability and efficiency, particularly on emb…
