Epistemic Wrapping for Uncertainty Quantification
Uncertainty estimation is pivotal in machine learning, especially for classification tasks, as it improves the robustness and reliability of models. We introduce a novel `Epistemic Wrapping' methodology aimed at improving uncertainty estimation in classification.

Representation of analysis results involving aleatory and epistemic uncertainty. [PDF]
Procedures are described for the representation of results in analyses that involve both aleatory uncertainty and epistemic uncertainty, with aleatory uncertainty deriving from an inherent randomness in the behavior of the system under study and ...

The Future of Research in Cognitive Robotics: Foundation Models or Developmental Cognitive Models?
Research in cognitive robotics founded on principles of developmental psychology and enactive cognitive science would yield what we seek in autonomous robots: the ability to perceive its environment, learn from experience, anticipate the outcome of events, act to pursue goals, and adapt to changing circumstances without resorting to training with ...

Epistemic uncertainties and natural hazard risk assessment – Part 1: A review of different natural hazard areas [PDF]
This paper discusses how epistemic uncertainties are currently considered in the most widely occurring natural hazard areas, including floods, landslides and debris flows, dam safety, droughts, earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic ash clouds and ...

Fast performance uncertainty estimation via pushover and approximate IDA
Approximate methods based on the static pushover are introduced to estimate the seismic performance uncertainty of structures having non-deterministic modeling parameters. At their basis lies the use of static pushover analysis to approximate Incremental

Admissibility and event-rationality [PDF]
We develop an approach to providing epistemic conditions for admissible behavior in games. Instead of using lexicographic beliefs to capture infinitely less likely conjectures, we postulate that players use tie-breaking sets to help decide among ...

LLM‐Integrated Human–Robot Interaction System for Microrobots
This paper proposes an LLM‐based control framework for guiding microrobots using human natural language. This framework can convert the natural human speech into safe and executable command sets for reliable navigation in complex environments. The experimental results show high accuracy and robustness in task performance, demonstrating the potential of

CAPO: Causal-Adaptive Preference Optimization for Diffusion Models via Causal Inference Uncertainty
Post-training alignment of diffusion models based on human feedback uniformly applies equal weights to all preference pairs, ignoring the inherent aleatoric and epistemic uncertainty in feedback, leading to overfitting on noisy signals and insufficient ...

Practice-dependence and epistemic uncertainty
A shared presumption among practice-dependent theorists is that a principle of justice is dependent on the function or aim of the practice to which it is supposed to be applied.

Prior Expectations Bias Confidence Judgments Through Parietal Alpha‐Band Modulation
ABSTRACT Humans possess the metacognitive ability to estimate the likely accuracy of their own decisions through confidence judgments. Yet, whether prior information shapes confidence and the neural mechanisms mediating such influence, remain to be determined.
