• Abstract: We analyze the uncertainty relation for the sum of variances, which is called in some papers, the stronger uncertainty relation for all incompatible observables. We show that this uncertainty relation for the sum of variances of the observables $A$ and $B$ calculated for the eigenstate of one of these observables, (say of $B$), contrary to the suggestions presented in some papers, leads to the same results as the Heisenberg--Robertson uncertainty relation, that it does not give any bounds on the variance of $A$.

• Closer look at sum uncertainty relations and related relations [0.0]
  We analyze the weak and critical points of various uncertainty relations that follow from the inequalities for the norms of vectors in the Hilbert space of states of a quantum system. We show that there exists an upper bound on the product of standard deviations that appears in the Heisenberg-Robertson uncertainty relation.

  Blind source separation (BSS) aims to recover an unobserved signal from its mixture $X=f(S)$ under the condition that the transformation $f$ is invertible but unknown. We present a general framework for analysing such violations and quantifying their impact on the blind recovery of $S$ from $X$. We show that a generic BSS-solution in response to general deviations from its defining structural assumptions can be profitably analysed in the form of explicit continuity guarantees.

  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 study the diversity of such sets and find that many CLUEs are redundant. We then propose GLobal AMortised CLUE (GLAM-CLUE), a distinct and novel method which learns amortised mappings on specific groups of uncertain inputs. Our experiments show that $delta$-CLUE, $nabla$-CLUE, and GLAM-CLUE all address shortcomings of CLUE and provide beneficial explanations of uncertainty estimates to practitioners.

• Estimating means of bounded random variables by betting [39.98103047898974]
  This paper derives confidence intervals (CI) and time-uniform confidence sequences (CS) for the classical problem of estimating an unknown mean from bounded observations. We present a general approach for deriving concentration bounds, that can be seen as a generalization and improvement of the celebrated Chernoff method. We show how to extend these ideas to sampling without replacement, another heavily studied problem.

• Uncertainty relations: curiosities and inconsistencies [0.0]
  Analyzing general uncertainty relations one can find pairs of non-commuting observables $A$ and $B$ and such vectors that the lower bound for the product of standard deviations is zero: $Delta A,cdot,Delta Bgeq 0$. The status of the uncertainty relation in $cal PT$--symmetric quantum theory and the problems associated with it are also studied.
