A new paper published on arXiv details a taxonomy for understanding and quantifying uncertainty in machine learning models used within physics. The research clarifies the distinction between predictive and inference uncertainties, offering a unified framework for both frequentist and Bayesian approaches. It also introduces and demonstrates validation tools such as coverage, calibration, and bias tests, crucial for scientific discovery relying on probabilistic statements. AI
