FuDU: A Fuzzy Dual-dimensional Uncertainty Framework for Streaming Active Learning in Industrial Defect Detection

The paper introduces FuDU, a streaming active learning framework that enhances real‑time industrial defect detection by quantifying uncertainty at both image and box levels. It employs a Prototype-based Global Uncertainty Quantification module to assess image‑level uncertainty and a Dual‑entropy defect Uncertainty Evaluator for box‑level uncertainty. By fusing these uncertainties through fuzzy inference, FuDU enables expert‑knowledge‑driven adaptive sampling, improving reliability in tasks such as nuclear fuel rod defect detection.

Explainable Uncertainty Estimation for Reliable Medical AI

The paper introduces egRUE, an explainable uncertainty estimation method that merges uncertainty quantification with feature‑level explanations for medical AI predictions. egRUE incorporates prediction explanations into its uncertainty calculation and decomposes uncertainty into contributions from individual features. Experiments and a user study with medical experts show that egRUE improves reliability, interpretability, and calibrated trust compared to existing methods.
