Uncertainty in neural networks

TLDR
The authors suggest that uncertainty may be managed naturally, and even used profitably, in cooperative, self-organizing, dynamical physical systems, and in neural networks.
Abstract
Uncertainty in AI applications, as they apply to inductive inference, is often dealt with by modeling heuristic methods of inference based on different kinds of logic, binary, multivalued or fuzzy, simulated on digital computers with probability, possibility or belief theories. The authors suggest that uncertainty may be managed naturally, and even used profitably, in cooperative, self-organizing, dynamical physical systems, and in neural networks. New classes of powerful cooperative computation and learning (C&L) machines are possible, with the class of artificial neural networks being just an early, rather rudimentary, example. The temporal behavior of classical dynamical physical systems was investigated for C&L models. The case of deterministic chaos is considered in studying C&L properties in dynamical system behavior. Deterministic chaos underlines the behavior of a class of physical systems of special interest, whose unpredictability is derived from sensitive dependence on initial conditions in a sustained way which exaggerates uncertainty. Non-Lipschitzian unpredictability is considered. >

Depth Uncertainty in Neural Networks

TL;DR: This work performs probabilistic reasoning over the depth of neural networks to exploit the sequential structure of feed-forward networks and provide uncertainty calibration, robustness to dataset shift, and accuracies competitive with more computationally expensive baselines.

Molecule Identification with Rotational Spectroscopy and Probabilistic Deep Learning.

TL;DR: A proof-of-concept framework for identifying molecules of unknown elemental composition and structure using experimental rotational data and probabilistic deep learning is presented, and four neural network architectures that yield information to assist in the identification of an unknown molecule are described.

Bayesian inference of metabolic kinetics from genome-scale multiomics data

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that detailed information on the posterior distribution of parameters can be obtained efficiently at a variety of problem scales, including nearly genome-scale kinetic models trained on multiomics datasets and Bayesian machine learning tools to be leveraged in understanding biological data and in developing new, efficient strain designs.

Perceptual Attention-based Predictive Control.

TL;DR: The proposed architecture is the first step towards using deep learning-based perceptual control policies in safety-critical domains and outperforms previous approaches on early detection of unsafe conditions, such as when novel obstacles are present in the navigation environment.

Strange Attractors, Chaotic Behavior, and Information Flow

TL;DR: In this article, it is argued that a physical implementation of such equations is capable of acting as an information source, bringing into the macroscopic variables information not implicit in initial conditions.

Terminal attractors in neural networks

TL;DR: It will be shown that terminal attractors can be incorporated into neural networks such that any desired set of these attractors with prescribed basins is provided by an appropriate selection of the synaptic weights.
