Uncertainty Quantification using Generative Approach

Published 13 Oct 2023 in cs.LG and cs.AI | (2310.09338v1)

Abstract: We present the Incremental Generative Monte Carlo (IGMC) method, designed to measure uncertainty in deep neural networks using deep generative approaches. IGMC iteratively trains generative models, adding their output to the dataset, to compute the posterior distribution of the expectation of a random variable. We provide a theoretical guarantee of the convergence rate of IGMC relative to the sample size and sampling depth. Due to its compatibility with deep generative approaches, IGMC is adaptable to both neural network classification and regression tasks. We empirically study the behavior of IGMC on the MNIST digit classification task.
