Learning Calibrated Uncertainties for Domain Shift: A Distributionally Robust Learning Approach

We propose a framework for learning calibrated uncertainties under domain shifts, where the source (training) distribution differs from the target (test) distribution. We detect such domain shifts via a differentiable density ratio estimator and train it together with the task network, composing an adjusted softmax predictive form concerning domain shift. In particular, the density ratio estimation reflects the closeness of a target (test) sample to the source (training) distribution. We employ it to adjust the uncertainty of prediction in the …
