Probability Estimation in Tree-Based Linear Methods for Extreme Multi-Label Learning

· 1 citation · 31 references

TL;DR

This study explains why prior works relied on this problematic function without considering well-developed probabilistic outputs for binary linear classification and leads to a more suitable probability estimation for tree-based linear methods.

Diversity-Based Active Learning: An Evaluation of Metric Spaces for Active Learning Selection

Evaluating the performance of Greedy K-center across a variety of metric spaces shows that mapping unlabeled instances into a predictive probability space and weighting the result by entropy often dominates the other options for active learning selection with Greedy K-center.

Large Classification-Risk-Optional Label Acquisition

The adaptive classification-risk design attains lower mean error than this Fisher comparator across the labeling budgets considered, although it does not uniformly outperform entropy or margin sampling and differences among the targeted strategies become small as the labeling budget increases.

Favourable Missingness in Semi-Supervised Classification for Exponential Mixture Models

This work studies a different regime in which the probability of label missingness depends on posterior classification uncertainty, so that the observed missing-label indicators can themselves carry information about the Bayes decision boundary.
