• Title: Learning advisor networks for noisy image classification
• Authors: Simone Ricci, Tiberio Uricchio, Alberto Del Bimbo
• Abstract summary: We introduce the novel concept of advisor network to address the problem of noisy labels in image classification. We trained it with a meta-learning strategy so that it can adapt throughout the training of the main model. We tested our method on CIFAR10 and CIFAR100 with synthetic noise, and on Clothing1M which contains real-world noise, reporting state-of-the-art results.

• Abstract: In this paper, we introduced the novel concept of advisor network to address the problem of noisy labels in image classification. Deep neural networks (DNN) are prone to performance reduction and overfitting problems on training data with noisy annotations. Weighting loss methods aim to mitigate the influence of noisy labels during the training, completely removing their contribution. This discarding process prevents DNNs from learning wrong associations between images and their correct labels but reduces the amount of data used, especially when most of the samples have noisy labels. Differently, our method weighs the feature extracted directly from the classifier without altering the loss value of each data. The advisor helps to focus only on some part of the information present in mislabeled examples, allowing the classifier to leverage that data as well. We trained it with a meta-learning strategy so that it can adapt throughout the training of the main model. We tested our method on CIFAR10 and CIFAR100 with synthetic noise, and on Clothing1M which contains real-world noise, reporting state-of-the-art results.

  We propose a method called ERASE (Error-Resilient representation learning on graphs for lAbel noiSe tolerancE) to learn representations with error tolerance. ERASE combines prototype pseudo-labels with propagated denoised labels and updates representations with error resilience. Our method can outperform multiple baselines with clear margins in broad noise levels and enjoy great scalability.

  Deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) learned on large-scale labeled samples have achieved remarkable progress in computer vision.

  In the presence of noisy or incorrect labels, neural networks have the undesirable tendency to memorize information about the noise. Standard regularization techniques such as dropout, weight decay or data augmentation sometimes help, but do not prevent this behavior. We show that for any training algorithm, low values of this term correspond to reduction in memorization of label-noise and better bounds.
