A Metacognitive Approach to Out-of-Distribution Detection for Segmentation
Despite outstanding semantic scene segmentation in closed-worlds, deep neural networks segment novel instances poorly, which is required for autonomous agents acting in an open world. To improve out-of-distribution (OOD) detection for segmentation, we introduce a metacognitive approach in the form of a lightweight module that leverages entropy measures, segmentation predictions, and spatial context to characterize the segmentation model's uncertainty and detect pixel-wise OOD data in real-time. Additionally, our approach incorporates a novel method of generating synthetic OOD data in context with in-distribution data, which we use to fine-tune existing segmentation models with maximum entropy training. This further improves the metacognitive module's performance without requiring access to OOD data while enabling compatibility with established pre-trained models. Our resulting approach can reliably detect OOD instances in a scene, as shown by state-of-the-art performance on OOD detection for semantic segmentation benchmarks.

Pragmatic Metacognitive Prompting Improves LLM Performance on Sarcasm Detection
Sarcasm detection is a significant challenge in sentiment analysis due to the nuanced and context-dependent nature of verbiage. We introduce Pragmatic Metacognitive Prompting (PMP) to improve the performance of Large Lan…
Sarcasm DetectionSentiment AnalysisDo LLMs Know What They Know? Measuring Metacognitive Efficiency with Signal Detection Theory
Standard evaluation of LLM confidence relies on calibration metrics (ECE, Brier score) that conflate two capacities: how much a model knows (Type-1 accuracy) and how well its confidence signal tracks that knowledge (Type…
Individual Gain, Collective Loss: Metacognitive Adaptation in AI-Assisted Creativity
Recent studies reveal a paradox: AI enhances individual creative outputs while reducing collective diversity. Current explanations -- cognitive offloading and over-reliance -- identify symptoms but not mechanisms. We pro…
Metacognitive Self-Correction for Multi-Agent System via Prototype-Guided Next-Execution Reconstruction
Large Language Model based multi-agent systems (MAS) excel at collaborative problem solving but remain brittle to cascading errors: a single faulty step can propagate across agents and disrupt the trajectory. In this pap…
