Architecture-agnostic Lipschitz-constant Bayesian header and its application to resolve semantically proximal classification errors with vision transformers

Label noise remains a critical bottleneck for the generalization of supervised deep learning models, particularly when errors are structured rather than random. Standard robust training methods often fail in the presence of such semantically proximal classification errors. This work presents an architecture-agnostic Lipschitz-constant Bayesian header that can be integrated into feature extractors such as vision transformers, yielding the bi-Lipschitz-constrained Bayesian Vision Transformer (LipB-ViT). In contrast to conventional Bayesian layers, our approach enforces spectral normalization on both the mean and log-variance of the variational weights, which promotes calibrated predictive uncertainty and mitigates noise amplification. We further propose a novel metric to jointly capture uncertainty and confidence across misclassification rates, as well as an adaptive arithmetic-mean fusion scheme that combines feature-space proximity with predictive uncertainty to detect corrupted labels outperforming the state of the art k-nearest neighbor based identification methods by more than 7% reaching a recall of more than 0.93 at 15% semantically misclassified labels. Although computational costs increase due to Monte Carlo sampling, the method offers plug-and-play compatibility with pre-trained backbones and consistent hyperparameters across domains, suggesting strong utility for high-stakes applications with variable annotation reliability. The stabilized confidence estimates serve as the foundation for an analysis pipeline that jointly assesses dataset quality and label noise, yielding a second novel metric for their combined quantification. Lastly, we systematically evaluate LipB-ViT under both structured (adversarial) and unstructured noise at inference time, demonstrating its robustness in realistic high-noise and attack scenarios. We compare its performance against baseline methods.
