Aleatoric uncertainty

Aleatoric uncertainty: Uncertainty caused by intrinsic noise or variability in data, which cannot be removed by collecting more. It includes imperfect measurements, random outcomes and label ambiguity. It is often modeled through the output distribution and distinguished from uncertainty due to limited model knowledge.
