Probabilistic Deep Learning

Probabilistic deep learning aims to enhance traditional deep learning models by incorporating uncertainty quantification, enabling more reliable predictions and informed decision-making. Current research focuses on developing and comparing various probabilistic models, including Bayesian neural networks, deep ensembles, and methods leveraging Gaussian processes or mixture models, often applied within architectures like transformers and convolutional neural networks. This field is significant because it addresses the limitations of deterministic deep learning in handling noisy data, out-of-distribution samples, and the need for trustworthy predictions across diverse applications, from autonomous driving to medical diagnosis. Improved uncertainty quantification leads to more robust and reliable AI systems.
