• Abstract: We study tests of quantum steering in which the trusted party does not have perfect control of their measurements. We report on steering inequalities that remain unaffected when introducing up to a threshold magnitude of measurement imprecision. This phenomenon, which we call an imprecision plateau, thus permits a departure from the standard assumption of idealised measurements without any incuring cost to the detection power of steering experiments. We provide an explanation for why imprecision plateaus are possible, a simple criterion for their existence and tools for analysing their properties. We also demonstrate that these plateaus have natural applications when the assumption of perfect measurements is relaxed: they allow for maintaining both the noise- and loss-robustness of standard steering tests and the performance rate of idealised one-sided device-independent random number generators.

• Characterisation and fundamental limitations of irreversible stochastic steering distillation [0.0]
  Steering resources, central for quantum advantages in one-sided device-independent quantum tasks, can be enhanced via local filters. Recently, steering conversion under local filters has been fully characterised. Here, we solve the problem in the irreversible scenario, which leads to a complete understanding of steering distillation. This result also provides an operational interpretation of the max-relative entropy as the filter optimal success probability.

  We show that small measurement imprecision can have a large detrimental influence in terms of false positives for steering inequalities. We then introduce a method for taking generic measurement imprecision into account in tests of bipartite steering inequalities.

• Monotonicity and Double Descent in Uncertainty Estimation with Gaussian Processes [52.92110730286403]
  It is commonly believed that the marginal likelihood should be reminiscent of cross-validation metrics and that both should deteriorate with larger input dimensions. We prove that by tuning hyper parameters, the performance, as measured by the marginal likelihood, improves monotonically with the input dimension. We also prove that cross-validation metrics exhibit qualitatively different behavior that is characteristic of double descent.

• Probabilities Are Not Enough: Formal Controller Synthesis for Stochastic Dynamical Models with Epistemic Uncertainty [68.00748155945047]
  Capturing uncertainty in models of complex dynamical systems is crucial to designing safe controllers. Several approaches use formal abstractions to synthesize policies that satisfy temporal specifications related to safety and reachability. Our contribution is a novel abstraction-based controller method for continuous-state models with noise, uncertain parameters, and external disturbances.

• Entanglement detection with imprecise measurements [2.867517731896504]
  We investigate entanglement detection when the local measurements only nearly correspond to those intended. We formalise this through an operational notion of inaccuracy that can be estimated directly in the lab. We show that small magnitudes of inaccuracy can significantly compromise several renowned entanglement witnesses.

  In this work, the formulation of Bayesian autoencoders (BAEs) is adopted to quantify the total anomaly uncertainty. To evaluate the quality of uncertainty, we consider the task of classifying anomalies with the additional option of rejecting predictions of high uncertainty. Our experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the BAE and total anomaly uncertainty on a set of benchmark datasets and two real datasets for manufacturing.

  Estimating the uncertainty of a neural network plays a fundamental role in safety-critical settings. In this work, we propose a novel sampling-free uncertainty estimation method for object detection. We call it CertainNet, and it is the first to provide separate uncertainties for each output signal: objectness, class, location and size.

  There are several limitations of the existing uncertainty estimation methods for anchor-based object detection. We propose a new localization uncertainty estimation method called UAD for anchor-free object detection. Our method captures the uncertainty in four directions of box offsets that are homogeneous, so that it can tell which direction is uncertain.
