• Authors: Hao Wu, Jiaochao Yao, Jiajie Wang, Yinru Chen, Ya Zhang, Yanfeng Wang
• Abstract summary: Deep neural networks (DNNs) have the capacity to fit extremely noisy labels. They tend to learn data with clean labels first and then memorize those with noisy labels. We show the low entropy predictions determined by a given threshold are much more reliable as the supervision than the original noisy labels.

• Abstract: Deep neural networks (DNNs) have the capacity to fit extremely noisy labels nonetheless they tend to learn data with clean labels first and then memorize those with noisy labels. We examine this behavior in light of the Shannon entropy of the predictions and demonstrate the low entropy predictions determined by a given threshold are much more reliable as the supervision than the original noisy labels. It also shows the advantage in maintaining more training samples than previous methods. Then, we power this entropy criterion with the Collaborative Label Correction (CLC) framework to further avoid undesired local minimums of the single network. A range of experiments have been conducted on multiple benchmarks with both synthetic and real-world settings. Extensive results indicate that our CLC outperforms several state-of-the-art methods.

  Noisy labels are ubiquitous in real-world datasets, especially in the large-scale ones derived from crowdsourcing and web searching. It is challenging to train deep neural networks with noisy datasets since the networks are prone to overfitting the noisy labels during training. We propose a framework that trains the model with new synthetic samples to mitigate the impact of noisy labels.

  We develop a novel pseudo labeling method using class prototypes from the perspective of distribution matching. By setting a manually-specific probability measure, we can reduce the side-effects of noisy and long-tailed data simultaneously. Our method can extract this class-balanced subset with clean labels, which brings effective performance gains for long-tailed classification with label noise.

  Learning with noisy labels (LNL) aims at designing strategies to improve model performance and generalization by mitigating the effects of model overfitting to noisy labels. Recent advances employ the predicted label distributions of individual samples to perform noise verification and noisy label correction, easily giving rise to confirmation bias. We propose Neighborhood Collective Estimation, in which the predictive reliability of a candidate sample is re-estimated by contrasting it against its feature-space nearest neighbors.

  Deep neural networks are prone to overfitting noisy labels, resulting in poor generalization performance. We present a method self-ensemble label correction (SELC) to progressively correct noisy labels and refine the model. SELC obtains more promising and stable results in the presence of class-conditional, instance-dependent, and real-world label noise.

In the heart of our method is a sample selection mechanism that relies on the consistency between the annotated label of a sample and the distribution of the labels in its neighborhood in the feature space. Our method significantly surpasses previous methods on both CIFARCIFAR100 with artificial noise and real-world noisy datasets such as WebVision and ANIMAL-10N.

• In Defense of Pseudo-Labeling: An Uncertainty-Aware Pseudo-label Selection Framework for Semi-Supervised Learning [53.1047775185362]
  Pseudo-labeling (PL) is a general SSL approach that does not have this constraint but performs relatively poorly in its original formulation. We argue that PL underperforms due to the erroneous high confidence predictions from poorly calibrated models. We propose an uncertainty-aware pseudo-label selection (UPS) framework which improves pseudo labeling accuracy by drastically reducing the amount of noise encountered in the training process.
