A Simple Zero-shot Prompt Weighting Technique to Improve Prompt Ensembling in Text-Image Models

ICML 2023poster

Contrastively trained text-image models have the remarkable ability to perform zero-shot classification, that is, classifying previously unseen images into categories that the model has never been explicitly trained to identify. However, these zero-shot classifiers need prompt engineering to achieve…

Neural Spline Search for Quantile Probabilistic Modeling

AAAI 2023technical

Accurate estimation of output quantiles is crucial in many use cases, where it is desired to model the range of possibility. Modeling target distribution at arbitrary quantile levels and at arbitrary input attribute levels are important to offer a comprehensive picture of the data, and requires the…

Benchmarking Bayesian Deep Learning on Diabetic Retinopathy Detection Tasks

NeurIPS 2021poster

Bayesian deep learning seeks to equip deep neural networks with the ability to precisely quantify their predictive uncertainty, and has promised to make deep learning more reliable for safety-critical real-world applications. Yet, existing Bayesian deep learning methods fall short of this promise; n…

Combining Ensembles and Data Augmentation Can Harm Your Calibration

ICLR 2021poster

Ensemble methods which average over multiple neural network predictions are a simple approach to improve a model’s calibration and robustness. Similarly, data augmentation techniques, which encode prior information in the form of invariant feature transformations, are effective for improving calibra…
