• Title: Adaptive Threshold for Better Performance of the Recognition and Re-identification Models
• Authors: Bharat Bohara
• Abstract summary: An online optimization-based statistical feature learning adaptive technique is developed and tested on the LFW datasets and self-prepared athletes datasets. This method of adopting adaptive threshold resulted in 12-45% improvement in the model accuracy compared to the fixed threshold 0.3,0.5,0.7 that are usually taken via the hit-and-trial method in any classification and identification tasks.

• Abstract: Choosing a decision threshold is one of the challenging job in any classification tasks. How much the model is accurate, if the deciding boundary is not picked up carefully, its entire performance would go in vain. On the other hand, for imbalance classification where one of the classes is dominant over another, relying on the conventional method of choosing threshold would result in poor performance. Even if the threshold or decision boundary is properly chosen based on machine learning strategies like SVM and decision tree, it will fail at some point for dynamically varying databases and in case of identity-features that are more or less similar, like in face recognition and person re-identification models. Hence, with the need for adaptability of the decision threshold selection for imbalanced classification and incremental database size, an online optimization-based statistical feature learning adaptive technique is developed and tested on the LFW datasets and self-prepared athletes datasets. This method of adopting adaptive threshold resulted in 12-45% improvement in the model accuracy compared to the fixed threshold {0.3,0.5,0.7} that are usually taken via the hit-and-trial method in any classification and identification tasks.

  Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (DA) consists of adapting a model trained on a labeled source domain to perform well on an unlabeled target domain with some data distribution shift. We propose a framework to evaluate DA methods and present a fair evaluation of existing shallow algorithms, including reweighting, mapping, and subspace alignment. Our benchmark highlights the importance of realistic validation and provides practical guidance for real-life applications.

• Uncertainty-aware Sampling for Long-tailed Semi-supervised Learning [89.98353600316285]
  We introduce uncertainty into the modeling process for pseudo-label sampling, taking into account that the model performance on the tailed classes varies over different training stages. This approach allows the model to perceive the uncertainty of pseudo-labels at different training stages, thereby adaptively adjusting the selection thresholds for different classes. Compared to other methods such as the baseline method FixMatch, UDTS achieves an increase in accuracy of at least approximately 5.26%, 1.75%, 9.96%, and 1.28% on the natural scene image datasets.

• Leveraging Uncertainty Estimates To Improve Classifier Performance [4.4951754159063295]
  Binary classification involves predicting the label of an instance based on whether the model score for the positive class exceeds a threshold chosen based on the application requirements. However, model scores are often not aligned with the true positivity rate. This is especially true when the training involves a differential sampling across classes or there is distributional drift between train and test settings.

  We formulate this task as an online contextual active model selection problem, where at each round the learner receives an unlabeled data point along with a context. The goal is to output the best model for any given context without obtaining an excessive amount of labels. We propose a contextual active model selection algorithm (CAMS), which relies on a novel uncertainty sampling query criterion defined on a given policy class for adaptive model selection.

  Partial-label learning (PLL) is a typical weakly supervised learning problem, where each training instance is equipped with a set of candidate labels among which only one is the true label. Most existing methods elaborately designed as constrained optimizations that must be solved in specific manners, making their computational complexity a bottleneck for scaling up to big data. This paper proposes a novel framework of classifier with flexibility on the model and optimization algorithm.
