Fine-Tuning with Uncertainty-Aware Priors Makes Vision and Language Foundation Models More Reliable

Abstract

We construct data-dependent priors that encourage uncertainty on inputs unlike the fine-tuning data. Approximate inference with these priors is evaluated through calibration, selective prediction, and semantic distribution shifts in vision and language tasks.
