I’ve got my eyes on:
XAI
I want to know more about:
Interpretable autoencoders
Projects
Comprehensive uncertainties for generative models
Develop a method to include uncertainties, starting from Bayesian generative networks; expand strategies to model systematic uncertainties using conditional training on nuisance parameters; extend NNPDF methodology for architecture-driven and parameter-driven uncertainties to generative models; study the effect of guided implicit bias on amplification factors between training and generated sample size.
