Tensor-valued prediction is fundamental to geometric deep learning, yet uncertainty quantification (UQ) for such outputs remains an open challenge. While E(3)-equivariant neural networks excel at point estimates, they lack rigorous confidence measures. We focus on symmetric rank-2 tensor prediction, where the target has six Kelvin--Mandel coordinates and full uncertainty is represented by a $6\times6$ covariance matrix. We introduce a framework for E(3)-equivariant UQ, modeling the full predictive distribution where both mean and covariance preserve rotational symmetry. Our approach decomposes the covariance into irreducible representations $\mathrm{Sym}^2(ρ_c) \cong 2\times(l=0) \oplus 2\times(l=2) \oplus 1\times(l=4)$. By mapping from the flat Lie algebra $\mathfrak{sym}(6)$ to the curved SPD manifold via matrix exponentiation, we strictly ensure positive-definite covariances while maintaining exact equivariance. Furthermore, we formulate a Log-Euclidean Equivariant Scoring Objective (LE-ESO)---a robust surrogate loss based on the Multivariate Laplace distribution---providing robustness to heavy-tailed errors and stable optimization. Validation on ModelNet40 inertia tensors and Materials Project dielectric tensors demonstrates that our method achieves competitive performance and provides physically consistent, symmetry-preserving uncertainty estimates with useful risk and OOD sensitivity.
Manifold-valued measurements are prevalent in various machine learning tasks. Recent advances have extended Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) to operate on manifolds. These extensions have been accompanied by normalization techniques tailored to different geometries, collectively referred to as Riemannian normalization. However, most existing Riemannian normalization methods are either designed for specific manifolds or fail to effectively normalize manifold-valued sample distributions. To address these limitations, we propose LieBN, a framework for Riemannian Batch Normalization (RBN) over Lie groups. Our approach leverages the theoretically convenient left- and right-invariant metrics, which naturally exist in every Lie group, and provides theoretical guarantees for controlling the Riemannian mean and variance. We instantiate LieBN across nine distinct geometries: four on the Symmetric Positive Definite (SPD) manifold, one on the group of rotation matrices, and four on the manifold of full-rank correlation matrices. Notably, among the SPD metrics, we introduce a novel right-invariant metric and extend three existing Lie group structures via matrix power deformation. Experiments on different manifolds validate the effectiveness of our framework. The code is available at https://github.com/GitZH-Chen/LieBN.git.
