We consider the problem of performing Bayesian inference in probabilistic models where observations are accompanied by uncertainty, referred to as uncertain evidence'
We explore how to interpret uncertain evidence, and by extension the importance of proper interpretation as it pertains to inference about latent variables.
We devise concrete guidelines on how to account for uncertain evidence and we provide new insights, particularly regarding consistency.

We argue that the aleatoric uncertainty is an inherent attribute of the data and can only be correctly estimated with an unbiased oracle model.
We propose a new sampling and selection strategy at train time to approximate the oracle model for aleatoric uncertainty estimation.
Our results show that our solution achieves both accurate deterministic results and reliable uncertainty estimation.

We use certain norm inequalities to obtain new uncertain relations based on the Wigner-Yanase skew information.
First for an arbitrary finite number of observables we derive an uncertainty relation outperforming previous lower bounds.
We then propose new weighted uncertainty relations for two noncompatible observables.
