• Abstract: Conventional Bayesian Neural Networks (BNNs) are known to be capable of providing multiple outputs for a single input, the variations in which can be utilised to detect Out of Distribution (OOD) inputs. BNNs are difficult to train due to their sensitivity towards the choice of priors. To alleviate this issue, we propose pseudo-BNNs where instead of learning distributions over weights, we use point estimates and perturb weights at the time of inference. We modify the cost function of conventional BNNs and use it to learn parameters for the purpose of injecting right amount of random perturbations to each of the weights of a neural network with point estimate. In order to effectively segregate OOD inputs from In Distribution (ID) inputs using multiple outputs, we further propose two measures, derived from the index of dispersion and entropy of probability distributions, and combine them with the proposed pseudo-BNNs. Overall, this combination results in a principled technique to detect OOD samples at the time of inference. We evaluate our technique on a wide variety of neural network architectures and image classification datasets. We observe that our method achieves state of the art results and beats the related previous work on various metrics such as FPR at 95% TPR, AUROC, AUPR and Detection Error by just using 2 to 5 samples of weights per input.

  We propose a post-hoc method, Perturbation-Rectified OOD detection (PRO), based on the insight that prediction confidence for OOD inputs is more susceptible to reduction under perturbation than in-distribution (IND) inputs. On a CIFAR-10 model with adversarial training, PRO effectively detects near-OOD inputs, achieving a reduction of more than 10% on FPR@95 compared to state-of-the-art methods.

More importantly, by using normalizing flows on the variational posterior distribution of the LBBNN parameters, the network learns a more flexible variational posterior distribution than the mean field Gaussian.

  Deep neural networks are known to produce highly overconfident predictions on out-of-distribution (OOD) data. In this paper we propose a novel method where from first principles we combine a certifiable OOD detector with a standard classifier into an OOD aware classifier. In this way we achieve the best of two worlds: certifiably adversarially robust OOD detection, even for OOD samples close to the in-distribution, without loss in prediction accuracy and close to state-of-the-art OOD detection performance for non-manipulated OOD data.
