Sparse Autoencoders for Interpretable Out-of-Distribution Detection

Reliable detection of out-of-distribution (OOD) samples is crucial for the safe deployment of machine learning models. Neural networks often produce overconfident predictions for inputs that deviate from their training data, leading to significant degradation in performance. While many OOD detection methods focus on the final output layer, they neglect the rich hierarchical information present in intermediate network layers. This paper introduces a novel approach that leverages sparse…
