The moment neural network (MNN) propagates activity means and covariances to produce predictions and an uncertainty signal. Its supervised-mean, unsupervised-covariance (SMUC) rule trains predictions through the mean while covariance changes through nonlinear coupling, without direct covariance supervision. On tested classification tasks, covariance-derived entropy is higher for errors and separates notMNIST inputs, but this does not establish calibrated uncertainty detection.
