Active Learning and Crowd-Sourcing for Machine Translation
In recent years, corpus based approaches to machine translation have become predominant, with Statistical Machine Translation (SMT) being the most actively progressing area. Succe...

Sentence-Based Active Learning Strategies for Information Extraction
Given a classifier trained on relatively few training examples, active learning (AL) consists in ranking a set of unlabeled examples in terms of how informative they would be, if ...

Stopping Criteria for Active Learning of Named Entity Recognition
Active learning is a proven method for reducing the cost of creating the training sets that are necessary for statistical NLP. However, there has been little work on stopping crit...

Multi-Task Active Learning with Output Constraints
Many problems in information extraction, text mining, natural language processing and other fields exhibit the same property: multiple prediction tasks are related in the sense th...

Active Learning with Confidence
Active learning is a machine learning approach to achieving high-accuracy with a small amount of labels by letting the learning algorithm choose instances to be labeled. Most of p...

G-Optimal Design with Laplacian Regularization
In many real world applications, labeled data are usually expensive to get, while there may be a large amount of unlabeled data. To reduce the labeling cost, active learning attem...

Multi-Task Active Learning for Linguistic Annotations
We extend the classical single-task active learning (AL) approach. In the multi-task active learning (MTAL) paradigm, we select examples for several annotation tasks rather than f...

Bayesian Active Learning Using Arbitrary Binary Valued Queries
We explore a general Bayesian active learning setting, in which the learner can ask arbitrary yes/no questions. We derive upper and lower bounds on the expected number of queries r...

Cost-Minimising Strategies for Data Labelling: Optimal Stopping and Active Learning
Supervised learning deals with the inference of a distribution over an output or label space Y conditioned on points in an observation space X , given a training dataset D of pair...

The True Sample Complexity of Active Learning
We describe and explore a new perspective on the sample complexity of active learning. In many situations where it was generally believed that active learning does not help, we sh...
