VIB is Half Bayes

Alexander A Alemi, Warren R Morningstar, Ben Poole +2

In discriminative settings such as regression and classification there are two random variables at play, the inputs X and the targets Y. Here, we demonstrate that the Variational I…

PAC-Bayes: Narrowing the Empirical Risk Gap in the Misspecified Bayesian Regime

Warren R. Morningstar, Alexander A. Alemi, Joshua V. Dillon

The Bayesian posterior minimizes the "inferential risk" which itself bounds the "predictive risk". This bound is tight when the likelihood and prior are well-specified. However sin…

Density of States Estimation for Out-of-Distribution Detection

Warren R. Morningstar, Cusuh Ham, Andrew G. Gallagher +3

Perhaps surprisingly, recent studies have shown probabilistic model likelihoods have poor specificity for out-of-distribution (OOD) detection and often assign higher likelihoods to…

CEB Improves Model Robustness

Ian Fischer, Alexander A. Alemi

We demonstrate that the Conditional Entropy Bottleneck (CEB) can improve model robustness. CEB is an easy strategy to implement and works in tandem with data augmentation procedure…
