In many real world applications, active selection of training examples can significantly reduce the number of labelled training examples to learn a classification function. Differ...
Abstract. Active learning algorithms attempt to accelerate the learning process by requesting labels for the most informative items first. In real-world problems, however, there ma...
Active learning has been proven a reliable strategy to reduce manual efforts in training data labeling. Such strategies incorporate the user as oracle: the classifier selects the m...
We present a new and efficient semi-supervised training method for parameter estimation and feature selection in conditional random fields (CRFs). In real-world applications suc...
Automated text categorisation systems learn a generalised hypothesis from large numbers of labelled examples. However, in many domains labelled data is scarce and expensive to obta...
