Abstract
En 中文
Though widely used, most deep convolutional neural networks fail to capture prediction uncertainty, which can be crucial in scenarios such as automotive applications and disease diagnosis. Aleatoric and epistemic uncertainties have been proposed in the Bayesian deep learning framework for regression and classification, which require training images with unambiguous labels for success. Some situations do not have precise labels by nature, such as age estimation or lesion contour annotation by different physicians in the real world. Label distribution learning (LDL) has been proposed to account for the label ambiguity. However, uncertainty estimation has not been studied for LDL. This study presents a Bayesian deep label distribution learning (BLDL) to obtain the uncertainties of LDL tasks. We define semantic uncertainty to account for the incompleteness of data acquisition and inaccurate data labeling and unify the three types of uncertainties' mathematical expressions for classification and LDL. We further demonstrate that applying the three types of uncertainties in the loss functions significantly improves model performance, and using semantic uncertainty as a criterion to select the training samples substantially promotes active learning.
