We consider a binary unsupervised classification problem where each observation is associated with an unobserved label that we want to retrieve. More precisely, we assume that there are two groups of observation: normal and abnormal. The…
Ensembles of neural networks (NNs) have long been used to estimate predictive uncertainty; a small number of NNs are trained from different initialisations and sometimes on differing versions of the dataset. The variance of the ensemble's…

We study the problem of mismatched binary hypothesis testing between i.i.d. distributions. We analyze the tradeoff between the pairwise error probability exponents when the actual distributions generating the observation are different from…
The letter presents a method for the reduction in the mutual coherence of an overcomplete Gaussian or Bernoulli random matrix, which is fairly small due to the lower bound given here on the probability of the event that the aforesaid mutual…
The Freud ensemble of random matrices is the unitary invariant ensemble corresponding to the weight $\exp(-n |x|^{\beta})$, $\beta>0$, on the real line. We consider the local behaviour of eigenvalues near zero, which exhibits a transition…

After an autoencoder (AE) has learnt to reconstruct one dataset, it might be expected that the likelihood on an out-of-distribution (OOD) input would be low. This has been studied as an approach to detect OOD inputs. Recent work showed this…
When randomized ensembles such as bagging or random forests are used for binary classification, the prediction error of the ensemble tends to decrease and stabilize as the number of classifiers increases. However, the precise relationship…
