Two new arXiv papers explore Bayes-filtered transformers (BFTs), a type of transformer model designed to approximate Bayesian posterior predictive distributions. The first paper introduces Predictive Monte Carlo (PMC) as a tool to interpret what prior and posterior beliefs a BFT has internalized, applying it to stylized task families. The second paper addresses how to decompose uncertainty in BFTs, particularly for models like TabPFN, by leveraging Bayesian predictive inference and a predictive Central Limit Theorem to separate aleatoric and epistemic uncertainty.
