• Abstract summary: We develop information-theoretic, robust uncertainty quantification methods and non-parametric stress tests for directed graphical models. We provide a mathematically rigorous approach to correctability that guarantees a systematic selection for improvement of components of a graphical model. We demonstrate our methods in two physico-chemical examples, namely quantum scale-informed chemical kinetics and materials screening to improve the efficiency of fuel cells.

• Abstract: Probabilistic graphical models are a fundamental tool in probabilistic modeling, machine learning and artificial intelligence. They allow us to integrate in a natural way expert knowledge, physical modeling, heterogeneous and correlated data and quantities of interest. For exactly this reason, multiple sources of model uncertainty are inherent within the modular structure of the graphical model. In this paper we develop information-theoretic, robust uncertainty quantification methods and non-parametric stress tests for directed graphical models to assess the effect and the propagation through the graph of multi-sourced model uncertainties to quantities of interest. These methods allow us to rank the different sources of uncertainty and correct the graphical model by targeting its most impactful components with respect to the quantities of interest. Thus, from a machine learning perspective, we provide a mathematically rigorous approach to correctability that guarantees a systematic selection for improvement of components of a graphical model while controlling potential new errors created in the process in other parts of the model. We demonstrate our methods in two physico-chemical examples, namely quantum scale-informed chemical kinetics and materials screening to improve the efficiency of fuel cells.

  We present a data-driven correlation to biological tissue modeling, which aims to predict the displacement field based on digital image correlation (DIC) measurements under unseen loading scenarios. A material database is constructed from the DIC displacement tracking measurements of multiple biaxial stretching protocols on a porcine tricuspid valve leaflet. The material response is modeled as a solution operator from the loading to the resultant displacement field, with the material properties learned implicitly from the data and naturally embedded in the network parameters.

  Current autoencoder-based disentangled representation learning methods achieve disentanglement by penalizing the ( aggregate) posterior to encourage statistical independence of the latent factors. We present a novel multi-stage modeling approach where the disentangled factors are first learned using a penalty-based disentangled representation learning method. Then, the low-quality reconstruction is improved with another deep generative model that is trained to model the missing correlated latent variables.
