On the Epistemic Uncertainty of Overparametrized Neural Networks
https://openreview.net/forum?id=oiMjaUbSWp
[ "David Rügamer" ]
Poster
probabilistic_methods
Epistemic uncertainty is often viewed as a reducible uncertainty that vanishes with increasing data. This perspective implicitly assumes parameter identifiability and equates epistemic uncertainty with predictive variability. In overparametrized neural networks, however, model parameters are typically non-identifiable ...

We propose S3 (Specialization, Selection, Sparsification), a framework that rethinks multimodal learning through a structural perspective. Instead of encoding all signals into a fixed embedding, S3 decomposes multimodal inputs into semantic experts and selectively routes them for each task. Specialization forms concept...
