统一评估不确定性的预测模型,可灵活权衡准确与精确。

A Unified Evaluation Framework for Epistemic Predictions

  • 设计新评估框架,适配多种不确定性模型
  • 在多个数据集上验证指标有效且行为符合预期
  • 适合需要定制化精度-准确率权衡的应用场景

不确定性感知模型的预测形式多样,包括单点估计(常对预测样本取平均)、预测分布、集合值或可信集表示。本文提出一种适用于广泛模型类别的统一评估框架,通过设计合适的性能度量,使用户能根据实际需求灵活调整预测的准确率与精确度之间的权衡。该框架支持针对特定应用场景选择最合适的模型。在CIFAR-10、MNIST和CIFAR-100数据集上,对贝叶斯、集成、证据理论、确定性、可信集及信念函数分类器的实验表明,该度量表现符合预期。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Predictions of uncertainty-aware models are diverse, ranging from single point estimates (often averaged over prediction samples) to predictive distributions, to set-valued or credal-set representations. We propose a novel unified evaluation framework for uncertainty-aware classifiers, applicable to a wide range of model classes, which allows users to tailor the trade-off between accuracy and precision of predictions via a suitably designed performance metric. This makes possible the selection of the most suitable model for a particular real-world application as a function of the desired trade-off. Our experiments, concerning Bayesian, ensemble, evidential, deterministic, credal and belief function classifiers on the CIFAR-10, MNIST and CIFAR-100 datasets, show that the metric behaves as desired.
