Abstract
A method for increasing certainty in parameterized model predictions. The method includes clustering dimensional data in a latent space associated with a parameterized model into clusters. Different clusters correspond to different portions of a given input. The method includes predicting, with the parameterized model, an output based on the dimensional data in the latent space. The method includes transforming, with the parameterized model, the dimensional data in the latent space into a recovered version of the given input that corresponds to one or more of the clusters. In some embodiments, the method includes determining which one or more clusters correspond to predicted outputs with higher variance, and making the parameterized model more descriptive by adding to the dimensionality of the latent space, and/or training the parameterized model with more diverse training data associated with one or more determined clusters or parts thereof associated with predicted outputs with the higher variance.
