Semi-supervised anomaly detection methods leverage a few anomaly examples to yield drastically improved performance compared to unsupervised models. However, they still suffer from two limitations: 1) unlabeled anomalies (i.e., anomaly contamination) may mislead the learning process when all the unlabeled data are employed as inliers for model training; 2) only discrete supervision information (such as binary or ordinal data labels) is exploited, which leads to suboptimal learning of anomaly scores that essentially take on a continuous distribution. Therefore, this paper proposes a novel semi-supervised anomaly detection method, which devises contamination-resilient continuous supervisory signals. Specifically, we propose a mass interpolation method …

Labeling is onerous for crowd counting as it should annotate each individual in crowd images. Recently, several methods have been proposed for semi-supervised crowd counting to reduce the labeling efforts. Given a limited labeling budget, they typically select a few crowd images and densely label all individuals in each of them. Despite the promising results, we argue the None-or-All labeling strategy is suboptimal as the densely labeled individuals in each crowd image usually appear similar while the massive unlabeled crowd images may contain entirely diverse individuals. To this end, we propose to break the labeling chain of previous methods and …

This paper presents a novel semi-supervised few-shot image classification method named Learning to Teach and Learn (LTTL) to effectively leverage unlabeled samples in small-data regimes. Our method is based on self-training, which assigns pseudo labels to unlabeled data. However, the conventional pseudo-labeling operation heavily relies on the initial model trained by using a handful of labeled data and may produce many noisy labeled samples. We propose to solve the problem with three steps: firstly, cherry-picking searches valuable samples from pseudo-labeled data by using a soft weighting network; and then, cross-teaching allows the classifiers to teach mutually for rejecting more noisy …

Node clustering on heterogeneous information networks (HINs) plays an important role in many real-world applications. While previous research mainly clusters same-type nodes independently via exploiting structural similarity search, they ignore the correlations of different-type nodes. In this paper, we focus on the problem of co-clustering heterogeneous nodes where the goal is to mine the latent relevance of heterogeneous nodes and simultaneously partition them into the corresponding type-aware clusters. This problem is challenging in two aspects. First, the similarity or relevance of nodes is not only associated with multiple meta-path-based structures but also related to numerical and categorical attributes. Second, clusters …

Few-shot classification (FSC) is challenging due to the scarcity of labeled training data (e.g. only one labeled data point per class). Meta-learning has shown to achieve promising results by learning to initialize a classification model for FSC. In this paper we propose a novel semi-supervised meta-learning method called learning to self-train (LST) that leverages unlabeled data and specifically meta-learns how to cherry-pick and label such unsupervised data to further improve performance. To this end, we train the LST model through a large number of semi-supervised few-shot tasks. On each task, we train a few-shot model to predict pseudo labels for …

Clustering is an important topic in machine learning and data mining. Recently, deep clustering, which learns feature representations for clustering tasks using deep neural networks, has attracted increasing attention for various clustering applications. Deep embedded clustering (DEC) is one of the state-of-theart deep clustering methods. However, DEC does not make use of prior knowledge to guide the learning process. In this paper, we propose a new scheme of semi-supervised deep embedded clustering (SDEC) to overcome this limitation. Concretely, SDEC learns feature representations that favor the clustering tasks and performs clustering assignments simultaneously. In contrast to DEC, SDEC incorporates pairwise constraints …

Co-clustering is a commonly used technique for tapping the rich meta-information of multimedia web documents, including category, annotation, and description, for associative discovery. However, most co-clustering methods proposed for heterogeneous data do not consider the representation problem of short and noisy text and their performance is limited by the empirical weighting of the multi-modal features. In this paper, we propose a generalized form of Heterogeneous Fusion Adaptive Resonance Theory, called GHF-ART, for co-clustering of large-scale web multimedia documents. By extending the two-channel Heterogeneous Fusion ART (HF-ART) to multiple channels, GHF-ART is designed to handle multimedia data with an arbitrarily rich …

Obtaining high-quality and up-to-date labeled data can be difficult in many real-world machine learning applications. Semi-supervised learning aims to improve the performance of a classifier trained with limited number of labeled data by utilizing the unlabeled ones. This paper demonstrates a way to improve the transductive SVM, which is an existing semi-supervised learning algorithm, by employing a multiview learning paradigm. Multiview learning is based on the fact that for some problems, there may exist multiple perspectives, so called views, of each data sample. For example, in text classification, the typical view contains a large number of raw content features such …

Previous studies of Non-Parametric Kernel Learning (NPKL) usually formulate the learning task as a Semi-Definite Programming (SDP) problem that is often solved by some general purpose SDP solvers. However, for N data examples, the time complexity of NPKL using a standard interior-point SDP solver could be as high as O(N6.5), which prohibits NPKL methods applicable to real applications, even for data sets of moderate size. In this paper, we present a family of efficient NPKL algorithms, termed "SimpleNPKL", which can learn non-parametric kernels from a large set of pairwise constraints efficiently. In particular, we propose two efficient SimpleNPKL algorithms. One …

Near-duplicate keyframe (NDK) retrieval techniques are critical to many real-world multimedia applications. Over the last few years, we have witnessed a surge of attention on studying near-duplicate image/keyframe retrieval in multimedia community. To facilitate an effective approach to NDK retrieval on large-scale data, we suggest an effective Multi-Level Ranking (MLR) scheme that effectively retrieves NDKs in a coarse-to-fine manner. One key stage of the MLR ranking scheme is how to learn an effective ranking function with extremely small training examples in a near-duplicate detection task. To attack this challenge, we employ a semi-supervised learning method, semi-supervised support vector machines, which …

The key challenge with 3D deformable surface tracking arises from the difficulty in estimating a large number of 3D shape parameters from noisy observations. A recent state-of-the-art approach attacks this problem by formulating it as a Second Order Cone Programming (SOCP) feasibility problem. The main drawback of this solution is the high computational cost. In this paper, we first reformulate the problem into an unconstrained quadratic optimization problem. Instead of handling a large set of complicated SOCP constraints, our new formulation can be solved very efficiently by resolving a set of sparse linear equations. Based on the new framework, a …

Near-duplicate image retrieval plays an important role in many real-world multimedia applications. Most previous approaches have some limitations. For example, conventional appearance-based methods may suffer from the illumination variations and occlusion issue, and local feature correspondence-based methods often do not consider local deformations and the spatial coherence between two point sets. In this paper, we propose a novel and effective Nonrigid Image Matching (NIM) approach to tackle the task of near-duplicate keyframe retrieval from real-world video corpora. In contrast to previous approaches, the NIM technique can recover an explicit mapping between two near-duplicate images with a few deformation parameters and …

One critical task in content-based video retrieval is to rank search results with combinations of multimodal resources effectively. This paper proposes a novel multimodal and multilevel ranking framework for content-based video retrieval. The main idea of our approach is to represent videos by graphs and learn harmonic ranking functions through fusing multimodal resources over these graphs smoothly. We further tackle the efficiency issue by a multilevel learning scheme, which makes the semi-supervised ranking method practical for large-scale applications. Our empirical evaluations on TRECVID 2005 dataset show that the proposed multimodal and multilevel ranking framework is effective and promising for content-based …
