• Abstract summary: We propose PARS: Pseudo-Label Aware Robust Sample Selection. PARS exploits all training samples using both the raw/noisy labels and estimated/refurbished pseudo-labels via self-training. Results show that PARS significantly outperforms the state of the art on extensive studies on the noisy CIFAR-10 and CIFAR-100 datasets.

• Abstract: Acquiring accurate labels on large-scale datasets is both time consuming and expensive. To reduce the dependency of deep learning models on learning from clean labeled data, several recent research efforts are focused on learning with noisy labels. These methods typically fall into three design categories to learn a noise robust model: sample selection approaches, noise robust loss functions, or label correction methods. In this paper, we propose PARS: Pseudo-Label Aware Robust Sample Selection, a hybrid approach that combines the best from all three worlds in a joint-training framework to achieve robustness to noisy labels. Specifically, PARS exploits all training samples using both the raw/noisy labels and estimated/refurbished pseudo-labels via self-training, divides samples into an ambiguous and a noisy subset via loss analysis, and designs label-dependent noise-aware loss functions for both sets of filtered labels. Results show that PARS significantly outperforms the state of the art on extensive studies on the noisy CIFAR-10 and CIFAR-100 datasets, particularly on challenging high-noise and low-resource settings. In particular, PARS achieved an absolute 12% improvement in test accuracy on the CIFAR-100 dataset with 90% symmetric label noise, and an absolute 27% improvement in test accuracy when only 1/5 of the noisy labels are available during training as an additional restriction. On a real-world noisy dataset, Clothing1M, PARS achieves competitive results to the state of the art.

  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.

  Partial label learning (PLL) is a weakly-supervised learning paradigm where each training instance is paired with a set of candidate labels (partial label) NPLL relaxes this constraint by allowing some partial labels to not contain the true label, enhancing the practicality of the problem. We present a minimalistic framework that initially assigns pseudo-labels to images by exploiting the noisy partial labels through a weighted nearest neighbour algorithm.

  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.
