• Title: CroSel: Cross Selection of Confident Pseudo Labels for Partial-Label Learning
• Authors: Shiyu Tian, Hongxin Wei, Yiqun Wang, Lei Feng,
• Abstract summary: Partial-label learning (PLL) is an important weakly supervised learning problem, which allows each training example to have a candidate label set instead of a single ground-truth label. We propose a new method called CroSel, which leverages historical predictions from the model to identify true labels for most training examples.

• Abstract: Partial-label learning (PLL) is an important weakly supervised learning problem, which allows each training example to have a candidate label set instead of a single ground-truth label. Identification-based methods have been widely explored to tackle label ambiguity issues in PLL, which regard the true label as a latent variable to be identified. However, identifying the true labels accurately and completely remains challenging, causing noise in pseudo labels during model training. In this paper, we propose a new method called CroSel, which leverages historical predictions from the model to identify true labels for most training examples. First, we introduce a cross selection strategy, which enables two deep models to select true labels of partially labeled data for each other. Besides, we propose a novel consistency regularization term called co-mix to avoid sample waste and tiny noise caused by false selection. In this way, CroSel can pick out the true labels of most examples with high precision. Extensive experiments demonstrate the superiority of CroSel, which consistently outperforms previous state-of-the-art methods on benchmark datasets. Additionally, our method achieves over 90\% accuracy and quantity for selecting true labels on CIFAR-type datasets under various settings.

  In partial label learning (PLL), every sample is associated with a candidate label set comprising the ground-truth label and several noisy labels. For the first time, we create class-wise embeddings for each sample, which allow us to explore the relationship of instance-dependent noisy labels. To reduce the high label ambiguity, we introduce the concept of class prototypes containing global feature information.

  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.

  We introduce channel-wise contrastive learning (CWCL) to distinguish authentic label information from noise. Unlike conventional instance-wise contrastive learning (IWCL), CWCL tends to yield more nuanced and resilient features aligned with the authentic labels. Our strategy is twofold: firstly, using CWCL to extract pertinent features to identify cleanly labeled samples, and secondly, progressively fine-tuning using these samples.

  Partial label learning (PLL) is a typical weakly supervised learning problem, where each training example is associated with a set of candidate labels among which only one is true. Most existing approaches assume that the incorrect labels in each training example are randomly picked as the candidate labels and model the generation process of the candidate labels in a simple way. We propose Maximum A Posterior(MAP) based on an explicitly modeled generation process of candidate labels.
