## What it is
A library of high-quality, minimal-dependency implementations of standard and state-of-the-art uncertainty and robustness methods for deep learning, built on TensorFlow. It serves as a template for researchers to benchmark and prototype new ideas against consistent baselines.

## Use cases
- benchmark uncertainty estimation methods on CIFAR and ImageNet
- reproduce SOTA Bayesian deep learning baselines
- prototype new uncertainty or robustness ideas on top of standard baselines
- compare deterministic vs probabilistic neural network training
- run uncertainty experiments on TPUs via Colab or Google Cloud
- fork a baseline training script for a paper

## When to choose
- you research uncertainty quantification or robustness in deep learning
- you need consistent, comparable baselines for a paper
- you want forkable TensorFlow training scripts with minimal interdependencies
- you need TPU-ready experiment setups

## When to avoid
- you need a stable released API for production
- you work in PyTorch rather than TensorFlow
- you need general-purpose ML tooling unrelated to uncertainty
- you want a maintained pip-installable stable version
