Most existing semi-supervised learning methods are based on the smoothness assumption that data points in the same high density region should have the same label. This assumption, ...
In this paper, we propose a general framework for sparse semi-supervised learning, which concerns using a small portion of unlabeled data and a few labeled data to represent targe...
Semi-supervised inductive learning concerns how to learn a decision rule from a data set containing both labeled and unlabeled data. Several boosting algorithms have been extended...
Given a model family and a set of unlabeled examples, one could either label specific examples or state general constraints--both provide information about the desired model. In g...
In many real-world applications, such as image retrieval, it would be natural to measure the distances from one instance to others using instance specific distance which captures ...
