In this task, you are given the abstract of a research paper. Your task is to generate a summary of this abstract. Your summary should not be very short, but it's better if it's not more than 30 words.

Example Input: Uncertainty estimation and ensembling methods go hand-in-hand. Uncertainty estimation is one of the main benchmarks for assessment of ensembling performance. At the same time, deep learning ensembles have provided state-of-the-art results in uncertainty estimation. In this work, we focus on in-domain uncertainty for image classification. We explore the standards for its quantification and point out pitfalls of existing metrics. Avoiding these pitfalls, we perform a broad study of different ensembling techniques. To provide more insight in the broad comparison, we introduce the deep ensemble equivalent (DEE) and show that many sophisticated ensembling techniques are equivalent to an ensemble of very few independently trained networks in terms of the test log-likelihood.
Example Output: We highlight the problems with common metrics of in-domain uncertainty and perform a broad study of modern ensembling techniques.

Example Input: We show that information about whether a neural network's output will be correct or incorrect is present in the outputs of the network's intermediate layers. To demonstrate this effect, we train a new "meta" network to predict from either the final output of the underlying "base" network or the output of one of the base network's intermediate layers whether the base network will be correct or incorrect for a particular input. We find that, over a wide range of tasks and base networks, the meta network can achieve accuracies ranging from 65% - 85% in making this determination.

Example Output: Information about whether a neural network's output will be correct or incorrect is somewhat present in the outputs of the network's intermediate layers.

Example Input: Exploration in sparse reward reinforcement learning remains an open challenge. Many state-of-the-art methods use intrinsic motivation to complement the sparse extrinsic reward signal, giving the agent more opportunities to receive feedback during exploration. Commonly these signals are added as bonus rewards, which results in a mixture policy that neither conducts exploration nor task fulfillment resolutely.
In this paper, we instead learn separate intrinsic and extrinsic task policies and schedule between these different drives to accelerate exploration and stabilize learning. Moreover, we introduce a new type of intrinsic reward denoted as successor feature control (SFC), which is general and not task-specific. It takes into account statistics over complete trajectories and thus differs from previous methods that only use local information to evaluate intrinsic motivation. We evaluate our proposed scheduled intrinsic drive (SID) agent using three different environments with pure visual inputs: VizDoom, DeepMind Lab and DeepMind Control Suite. The results show a substantially improved exploration efficiency with SFC and the hierarchical usage of the intrinsic drives.

Example Output:
A new intrinsic reward signal based on successor features and a novel way to combine extrinsic and intrinsic reward.
