abstract

Modern neural networks are very powerful predictive models, but they are often incapable of recognizing when their predictions may be wrong. Closely related to this is the task of out-of-distribution detection, where a network must determine whether or not an input is outside of the set on which it is expected to safely perform. To jointly address these issues, we propose a method of learning confidence estimates for neural networks that is simple to implement and produces intuitively interpretable outputs. We demonstrate that on the task of out-of-distribution detection, our technique surpasses recently proposed techniques which construct confidence based on the network's output distribution, without requiring any additional labels or access to out-of-distribution examples. Additionally, we address the problem of calibrating out-of-distribution detectors, where we demonstrate that misclassified in-distribution examples can be used as a proxy for out-of-distribution examples.

Knowing when to trust machine-learned interatomic potentials

cs.LG · 2026-05-01 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

PROBE recasts MLIP uncertainty quantification as selective classification by training a compact discriminative classifier on frozen per-atom backbone embeddings, yielding a reliability probability that tracks actual error better than ensemble disagreement.

Component-Based Out-of-Distribution Detection

cs.CV · 2026-04-23 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

CoOD decomposes inputs into components and applies Component Shift Score plus Compositional Consistency Score to improve detection of both standard and compositional out-of-distribution data.

Rethinking Uncertainty in Segmentation: From Estimation to Decision

cs.CV · 2026-04-14 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Uncertainty optimization alone misses most safety gains; a decision-stage deferral policy removes up to 80% segmentation errors at 25% pixel deferral with cross-dataset robustness, while calibration does not improve decision quality.

RankOOD -- Class Ranking-based Out-of-Distribution Detection

cs.LG · 2025-11-25 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

RankOOD detects out-of-distribution samples by training a model to predict fixed class-specific ranking permutations via the Plackett-Luce loss, achieving a 4.3% FPR95 reduction on near-OOD TinyImageNet.
