2.1. Abstract

①Characteristics of model: sampling-free, single pass and loss (?)

②Advantages: plug and play

2.2. Introduction

①They aims to correct the uncertainty quantification

②Contributions: proposed variational Bayesian last layers (VBLLs), parameterized model, outperformed baselines and released a package

2.3. Bayesian Last Layer Neural Networks

①“回顾了贝叶斯最后一层模型，该模型仅对神经网络中的最后一层保持后验分布”（啥意思？？意思是其他层都不包含后验是吗）

② $T$ input $x\in\mathbb{R}^{N_x}$ with corresponding output (classification) $y\in\mathbb{R}^{N_y}$ . And $y \in \left \{ 1,..., N_y \right \}$ is a one hot lable set

③Neural network:

$\varphi:\mathbb{R}^{N_{x}}\times\Theta\to\mathbb{R}^{N_{\varphi}}\sim \varphi:=\varphi(x,\theta)$

the $\theta \in \Theta$ is acturally a weight in the last layer of neural network

2.3.1. Regression

①Traditional Bayesian last layer (BLL):

$y=w^{\top}\phi(x,\theta)+\varepsilon$

$\varepsilon$ is the noise of Gauss distribution (i.i.d.)

②Assuming a Gaussian prior: $p(\boldsymbol{w})=\mathcal{N}(\underline{\bar{\boldsymbol{w}}},\underline{S})$

③Predictive distribution:

$p(y\mid x,\eta,\theta)=N(w^{\top}\phi,\phi^{\top}S\phi+\Sigma)$

where $\eta=(\bar{\boldsymbol{w}},S)$ denotes the parameters of distribution

2.3.2. Discriminative Classification

①The specific BLL classification:

$p(y\mid x,W,\theta)=\mathrm{softmax(z),\quad z=W\phi(x,\theta)+\varepsilon}$

②Unnormalized joint data-label log likelihoods:

$z=\log p(x,y\mid W,\theta)-Z(W,\theta)$

where $Z(W,\theta)$ is a normalizing constant

2.3.3. Generative Classification

①"Placing a Normal prior on the means of these feature distributions and a (conjugate) Dirichlet prior on class probabilities, we have priors and likelihoods (top line and bottom line respectively) of the form":

$\boldsymbol{\rho}\sim\mathrm{Dir}(\underline{\boldsymbol{\alpha}})\in\mathcal{P}_{N_{y}}\; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \boldsymbol{\mu}_{\boldsymbol{y}}\sim\mathcal{N}(\bar{\underline{\boldsymbol{\mu}}}_{\boldsymbol{y}},\underline{S}_{\boldsymbol{y}})\\\boldsymbol{y}\mid\boldsymbol{\rho}\sim\mathrm{Cat}(\boldsymbol{\rho})\boldsymbol{\phi}\; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \;\; \;\mid\boldsymbol{y}\sim\mathcal{N}(\boldsymbol{\mu}_{\boldsymbol{y}},\Sigma)$

where $\underline{\bar{\mu}}_{y}\in\mathbb{R}^{N_{\phi}}$ is the prior mean, $\underline{S}_{\boldsymbol{y}}\in\mathbb{R}^{N_{\phi}\times N_{\phi}}$ denotes the covariance over $\mu_y\in\mathbb{R}^{N_\phi}$

②Distribution of parameters:

$p(\rho,\mu\mid\eta)=\mathrm{Dir}(\alpha)\prod_{k=1}^{N_{y}}N(\mu_{k},S_{k})$

③Marginalization analysis:

$p(x\mid y,\eta)=\mathcal{N}(\mu_{y},\Sigma+S_{y}),\quad p(y\mid\eta)=\frac{\alpha_{y}}{\sum_{k=1}^{N_{y}}\alpha_{k}}$

where $\eta=\{\alpha,\mu,S\}$

④Prediction by Bayes' rule:

$p(\mathbf{y}\mid\mathbf{x},\mathbf{\eta})=\mathrm{softmax}_{\mathbf{y}}(\log p(\mathbf{x}\mid\mathbf{y},\mathbf{\eta})+\log p(\mathbf{y}\mid\mathbf{\eta}))$

where

$\log p(x\mid y,\eta)=-\frac{1}{2}((\phi-\mu_{y})^{\intercal}(\Sigma+S_{y})^{-1}(\phi-\mu_{y})+\mathrm{logdet}(\Sigma+S_{y})+\mathrm{c})$

where $c$ is a constant shared by all the classes, and it can be ignored in that the shift-invariance of the softmax

⑤95% predictive credible region and visualization:

2.3.4. Inference and Training in BLL Models

①By gradient descent, the (log) marginal likelihood:

$T^{-1}\log p(Y\mid X,\theta)$

where the full marginal likelihood may bring ubstantial over-concentration of the approximate posterior

2.4. Sampling-Free Variational Inference for BLL Networks

①To approximate a margin, they develop bounds of the form:

$T^{-1}\log p(Y|X,\theta)\geq\mathcal{L}(\theta,\eta,\Sigma)-T^{-1}\mathrm{KL}(q(\xi|\eta)\mid|p(\xi))$

where $\xi$ is the parameter in the last layer, $q(\xi|\eta)$ is the approximating posterior

2.4.1. Regression

①When $q(\xi\mid\eta)$ is the variational posterior, then:

$\mathcal{L}(\boldsymbol{\theta},\boldsymbol{\eta},\Sigma)=\frac{1}{T}\sum_{t=1}^{T}\left(\log\mathcal{N}(\boldsymbol{y}_{t}\mid\bar{\boldsymbol{w}}^{\top}\boldsymbol{\phi}_{t},\Sigma)-\frac{1}{2}\boldsymbol{\phi}_{t}^{\top}S\boldsymbol{\phi}_{t}\Sigma^{-1}\right)$

when $q(\boldsymbol{\xi}\mid\boldsymbol{\eta})=p(\boldsymbol{\xi}\mid Y,X)$ and distributional assumptions are satisfied, the lower bound is tight

2.4.2. Discriminative Classification

①When $q(W\mid\boldsymbol{\eta})=\prod_{k=1}^{N_{y}}\mathcal{N}(\bar{\boldsymbol{w}}_{k},S_{k})$ is the variational posterior, then:

$\mathcal{L}(\boldsymbol{\theta},\boldsymbol{\eta},\Sigma)=\frac{1}{T}\sum_{t=1}^{T}\left(\boldsymbol{y}_{t}^{\top}\bar{W}\phi_{t}-\mathrm{LSE}_{k}\left[\bar{\boldsymbol{w}}_{k}^{\top}\phi_{t}+\frac{1}{2}(\phi_{t}^{\top}S_{k}\phi_{t}+\sigma_{k}^{2})\right]\right)$

where $\mathrm{LSE}_{k}$ is the log-sum-exp function, $k$ is the sum, $\xi=\{W\}$ is the parameter, $\sigma_{i}^{2}:={\Sigma}_{ii}$ , and $q(W\mid\eta)=\prod_{k=1}^{N_{y}}q(w_{k}\mid\eta)=\prod_{k=1}^{N_{y}}q(\bar{w}_{k},S_{k})$ is the variational posterior. And the bound is the standard ELBO

2.4.3. Generative Classification

①When $q(\boldsymbol{\mu}\mid\boldsymbol{\eta}) = \prod_{k=1}^{N_{y}}\mathcal{N}(\bar{\boldsymbol{\mu}}_{k},S_{k})$ is the variational posterior, then:

$\mathcal{L}(\boldsymbol{\theta},\boldsymbol{\eta},\Sigma)=\frac{1}{T}\sum_{t=1}^{T}\left(\log\mathcal{N}(\phi_{t}\mid\bar{\boldsymbol{\mu}}_{\boldsymbol{y}_{t}},\Sigma)-\frac{1}{2}\mathrm{tr}(\Sigma^{-1}S_{\boldsymbol{y}_{t}})+\psi(\boldsymbol{\alpha}_{\boldsymbol{y}_{t}})-\psi(\boldsymbol{\alpha}_{*})+\log\boldsymbol{\alpha}_{*}\right)\\-\operatorname{LSE}_{k}[\log\mathcal{N}(\phi_{t}\mid\bar{\boldsymbol{\mu}}_{k},\Sigma+S_{k})+\log\boldsymbol{\alpha}_{k}])$

where $p\left ( \rho | Y \right )=Dir\left ( \alpha \right )$ is the exact Dirichlet posterior over class probabilities, $\alpha$ denotes the Dirichlet posterior concentration parameters, $\psi \left ( \cdot \right )$ is the digamma function, $\alpha _*=\sum_{k}a_k$ . All $\psi(\alpha_{y_{t}}),\psi(\alpha_{*}),\log\alpha_{*}$ will vanish in gradient computation. The bound is ELBO

2.4.4. Training VBLL Models

（1）Full training

①Training goal:

$\boldsymbol{\theta}^*,\boldsymbol{\eta}^*,\Sigma^*=\arg\max_{\boldsymbol{\theta},\boldsymbol{\eta},\Sigma}\left\{\mathcal{L}(\boldsymbol{\theta},\boldsymbol{\eta},\Sigma)+T^{-1}(\log p(\boldsymbol{\theta})+\log p(\Sigma)-\mathrm{KL}(q(\boldsymbol{\xi}\mid\boldsymbol{\eta})||p(\boldsymbol{\xi})))\right\}$

isotropic adj.各向同性的；等方性的

（2）Post-training

①Different training methods from full traning

（3）Feature uncertainty

①Combining SVI and variational feature learning:

$\log p(Y\mid X)\geq\mathbb{E}_{q(\boldsymbol{\xi},\boldsymbol{\theta},\Sigma\mid\boldsymbol{\eta})}[\log(Y\mid X,\boldsymbol{\xi},\boldsymbol{\theta},\Sigma)]-\mathrm{KL}(q(\boldsymbol{\xi},\boldsymbol{\theta},\Sigma\mid\boldsymbol{\eta})||p(\boldsymbol{\xi},\boldsymbol{\theta},\Sigma))$

②Collapse this expectation:

2.4.5. Prediction with VBLL Models

①For classification task:

$p(\boldsymbol{y}\mid\boldsymbol{x},X,Y)\approx\mathbb{E}_{q(\boldsymbol{\xi}\mid\boldsymbol{\eta}^*)}[p(\boldsymbol{y}\mid\boldsymbol{x},\boldsymbol{\xi},\boldsymbol{\theta}^*,\Sigma^*)]$

②For generation or regression:

$p(\boldsymbol{y}\mid\boldsymbol{x},X,Y)\approx\mathbb{E}_{q(\boldsymbol{\theta}\mid\boldsymbol{\eta}^*)}\mathbb{E}_{q(\boldsymbol{\xi}\mid\boldsymbol{\eta}^*)}[p(\boldsymbol{y}\mid\boldsymbol{x},\boldsymbol{\xi},\boldsymbol{\theta},\Sigma^*)]$
