Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Add a two-sided gradient penalty to DUQ (ablation) | DUQ · CIFAR-10 vs SVHN | AUROC: 0.861 ± 0.032 -> 0.927 ± 0.013 | Helped |
| Add a two-sided gradient penalty to DUQ (ablation) | DUQ · FashionMNIST vs MNIST | AUROC: 0.948 ± .004 -> 0.955 ± .007 | Mixed |
| Increase gradient penalty weight from λ = 0 to λ = 0.5 (ablation) | DUQ · CIFAR-10 | accuracy: 94.2% ± 0.2 -> 93.2% ± 0.4 | Hurt |
| Remove the gradient penalty (ablation) | DUQ · Two Moons | out-of-distribution uncertainty quality | Hurt |
| Replace the two-sided gradient penalty with a one-sided penalty (ablation) | DUQ · Two Moons | out-of-distribution uncertainty quality | Hurt |
| Use an invertible feature extractor instead of the gradient penalty (ablation) | DUQ · Two Moons | uncertainty quality | Helped |
| Use an invertible feature extractor (ablation) | DUQ · higher-dimensional datasets | accuracy and uncertainty | Hurt |
| Apply gradient penalty to the feature vector or individual kernel distances rather than the sum of kernels (ablation) | DUQ · larger-scale datasets | uncertainty quality | Hurt |
| Increase gradient penalty weight from λ = 0 to λ = 0.05 (ablation) | DUQ · FashionMNIST | accuracy: 92.4% ± .2 -> 92.4% ± .2 | No clear effect |
| Increase gradient penalty weight from λ = 0 to λ = 0.05 (ablation) | DUQ · FashionMNIST vs NotMNIST | AUROC: 0.933 ± .009 -> 0.946 ± .018 | Helped |
