Hello!

We will be presenting Estimating the Hallucination Rate of Generative AI at NeurIPS. Come if you'd like to chat about epistemic uncertainty for In-Context Learning, or uncertainty more generally. :)

Location: East Exhibit Hall A-C #2703
Time: Friday @ 4:30

Check out our paper (link below) for experiments on UCI datasets and a real-world application in sales forecasting using Walmart data.

Our model requires little to no tuning, adapts to any distribution, and is very easy to use—just three lines of code!

I am very excited to share our new Neurips 2024 paper + package, Treeffuser! 🌳 We combine gradient-boosted trees with diffusion models for fast, flexible probabilistic predictions and well-calibrated uncertainty.

I like this (kind of trivial) formalization of the linear representation hypothesis. Not sure if it's entirely correct or complete, but I prefer it to the verbal descriptions I often see.

As I understand it means something along these lines which seems to me a bit different.
