Out-of-Distribution

Out-of-Distribution (OOD) data refers to inputs that originate from a different probability distribution than the dataset used to train the machine learning model, often causing models to make confident mistakes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do models fail on out-of-distribution inputs?

Because models make predictions based on statistical correlation patterns learned during training, which do not hold true for fundamentally different data.

How do you detect out-of-distribution inputs?

By monitoring embedding distances or using classification confidence thresholds to route anomalous inputs to safety loops.
