Panasonic HD Develops “Split-Ensemble” That Can Efficiently Improve Uncertainty Estimation at 1/4 the Computational Cost

Osaka, Japan - Panasonic Holdings (Panasonic HD) has developed a “Split-Ensemble” method which can efficiently improve uncertainty estimation and out-of-distribution (OOD) detection performance, together with researchers from the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley), Peking University, and Carnegie Mellon University. Experiments showed the effectiveness of Split-Ensemble compared to conventional methods.
