在标签噪声下训练深神网络的能力很有吸引力，因为不完美的注释数据相对便宜。最先进的方法基于半监督学习（SSL），该学习选择小损失示例为清洁，然后应用SSL技术来提高性能。但是，选择步骤主要提供一个中等大小的清洁子集，该子集可俯瞰丰富的干净样品。在这项工作中，我们提出了一个新颖的嘈杂标签学习框架Promix，试图最大程度地提高清洁样品的实用性以提高性能。我们方法的关键是，我们提出了一种匹配的高信心选择技术，该技术选择了那些具有很高置信的示例，并与给定标签进行了匹配的预测。结合小损失选择，我们的方法能够达到99.27的精度，并在检测CIFAR-10N数据集上的干净样品时召回98.22。基于如此大的清洁数据，Promix将最佳基线方法提高了CIFAR-10N的 +2.67％，而CIFAR-100N数据集则提高了 +1.61％。代码和数据可从https://github.com/justherozen/promix获得

样品选择是减轻标签噪声在鲁棒学习中的影响的有效策略。典型的策略通常应用小损失标准来识别干净的样品。但是，这些样本位于决策边界周围，通常会与嘈杂的例子纠缠在一起，这将被此标准丢弃，从而导致概括性能的严重退化。在本文中，我们提出了一种新颖的选择策略，\ textbf {s} elf- \ textbf {f} il \ textbf {t} ering（sft），它利用历史预测中嘈杂的示例的波动来过滤它们，可以过滤它们，这可以是可以过滤的。避免在边界示例中的小损失标准的选择偏置。具体来说，我们介绍了一个存储库模块，该模块存储了每个示例的历史预测，并动态更新以支持随后的学习迭代的选择。此外，为了减少SFT样本选择偏置的累积误差，我们设计了一个正规化术语来惩罚自信的输出分布。通过通过此术语增加错误分类类别的重量，损失函数在轻度条件下标记噪声是可靠的。我们对具有变化噪声类型的三个基准测试并实现了新的最先进的实验。消融研究和进一步分析验证了SFT在健壮学习中选择样本的优点。

Deep neural networks are known to be annotation-hungry. Numerous efforts have been devoted to reducing the annotation cost when learning with deep networks. Two prominent directions include learning with noisy labels and semi-supervised learning by exploiting unlabeled data. In this work, we propose DivideMix, a novel framework for learning with noisy labels by leveraging semi-supervised learning techniques. In particular, DivideMix models the per-sample loss distribution with a mixture model to dynamically divide the training data into a labeled set with clean samples and an unlabeled set with noisy samples, and trains the model on both the labeled and unlabeled data in a semi-supervised manner. To avoid confirmation bias, we simultaneously train two diverged networks where each network uses the dataset division from the other network. During the semi-supervised training phase, we improve the MixMatch strategy by performing label co-refinement and label co-guessing on labeled and unlabeled samples, respectively. Experiments on multiple benchmark datasets demonstrate substantial improvements over state-of-the-art methods. Code is available at https://github.com/LiJunnan1992/DivideMix.

Partial label learning (PLL) is an important problem that allows each training example to be labeled with a coarse candidate set, which well suits many real-world data annotation scenarios with label ambiguity. Despite the promise, the performance of PLL often lags behind the supervised counterpart. In this work, we bridge the gap by addressing two key research challenges in PLL -- representation learning and label disambiguation -- in one coherent framework. Specifically, our proposed framework PiCO consists of a contrastive learning module along with a novel class prototype-based label disambiguation algorithm. PiCO produces closely aligned representations for examples from the same classes and facilitates label disambiguation. Theoretically, we show that these two components are mutually beneficial, and can be rigorously justified from an expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm perspective. Moreover, we study a challenging yet practical noisy partial label learning setup, where the ground-truth may not be included in the candidate set. To remedy this problem, we present an extension PiCO+ that performs distance-based clean sample selection and learns robust classifiers by a semi-supervised contrastive learning algorithm. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our proposed methods significantly outperform the current state-of-the-art approaches in standard and noisy PLL tasks and even achieve comparable results to fully supervised learning.

作为标签噪声，最受欢迎的分布变化之一，严重降低了深度神经网络的概括性能，具有嘈杂标签的强大训练正在成为现代深度学习中的重要任务。在本文中，我们提出了我们的框架，在子分类器（ALASCA）上创造了自适应标签平滑，该框架提供了具有理论保证和可忽略的其他计算的可靠特征提取器。首先，我们得出标签平滑（LS）会产生隐式Lipschitz正则化（LR）。此外，基于这些推导，我们将自适应LS（ALS）应用于子分类器架构上，以在中间层上的自适应LR的实际应用。我们对ALASCA进行了广泛的实验，并将其与以前的几个数据集上的噪声燃烧方法相结合，并显示我们的框架始终优于相应的基线。

深神经网络（DNN）的记忆效果在许多最先进的标签噪声学习方法中起着枢轴作用。为了利用这一财产，通常采用早期停止训练早期优化的伎俩。目前的方法通常通过考虑整个DNN来决定早期停止点。然而，DNN可以被认为是一系列层的组成，并且发现DNN中的后一个层对标签噪声更敏感，而其前同行是非常稳健的。因此，选择整个网络的停止点可以使不同的DNN层对抗彼此影响，从而降低最终性能。在本文中，我们建议将DNN分离为不同的部位，逐步培训它们以解决这个问题。而不是早期停止，它一次列举一个整体DNN，我们最初通过用相对大量的时期优化DNN来训练前DNN层。在培训期间，我们通过使用较少数量的时期使用较少的地层来逐步培训后者DNN层，以抵消嘈杂标签的影响。我们将所提出的方法术语作为渐进式早期停止（PES）。尽管其简单性，与早期停止相比，PES可以帮助获得更有前景和稳定的结果。此外，通过将PE与现有的嘈杂标签培训相结合，我们在图像分类基准上实现了最先进的性能。

Annotating the dataset with high-quality labels is crucial for performance of deep network, but in real world scenarios, the labels are often contaminated by noise. To address this, some methods were proposed to automatically split clean and noisy labels, and learn a semi-supervised learner in a Learning with Noisy Labels (LNL) framework. However, they leverage a handcrafted module for clean-noisy label splitting, which induces a confirmation bias in the semi-supervised learning phase and limits the performance. In this paper, we for the first time present a learnable module for clean-noisy label splitting, dubbed SplitNet, and a novel LNL framework which complementarily trains the SplitNet and main network for the LNL task. We propose to use a dynamic threshold based on a split confidence by SplitNet to better optimize semi-supervised learner. To enhance SplitNet training, we also present a risk hedging method. Our proposed method performs at a state-of-the-art level especially in high noise ratio settings on various LNL benchmarks.

We approach the problem of improving robustness of deep learning algorithms in the presence of label noise. Building upon existing label correction and co-teaching methods, we propose a novel training procedure to mitigate the memorization of noisy labels, called CrossSplit, which uses a pair of neural networks trained on two disjoint parts of the dataset. CrossSplit combines two main ingredients: (i) Cross-split label correction. The idea is that, since the model trained on one part of the data cannot memorize example-label pairs from the other part, the training labels presented to each network can be smoothly adjusted by using the predictions of its peer network; (ii) Cross-split semi-supervised training. A network trained on one part of the data also uses the unlabeled inputs of the other part. Extensive experiments on CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100, Tiny-ImageNet and mini-WebVision datasets demonstrate that our method can outperform the current state-of-the-art up to 90% noise ratio.

Deep Learning with noisy labels is a practically challenging problem in weakly supervised learning. The stateof-the-art approaches "Decoupling" and "Co-teaching+" claim that the "disagreement" strategy is crucial for alleviating the problem of learning with noisy labels. In this paper, we start from a different perspective and propose a robust learning paradigm called JoCoR, which aims to reduce the diversity of two networks during training. Specifically, we first use two networks to make predictions on the same mini-batch data and calculate a joint loss with Co-Regularization for each training example. Then we select small-loss examples to update the parameters of both two networks simultaneously. Trained by the joint loss, these two networks would be more and more similar due to the effect of Co-Regularization. Extensive experimental results on corrupted data from benchmark datasets including MNIST, CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100 and Clothing1M demonstrate that JoCoR is superior to many state-of-the-art approaches for learning with noisy labels.

尽管对神经网络进行了监督学习的巨大进展，但在获得高质量，大规模和准确标记的数据集中存在重大挑战。在这种情况下，在本文中，我们在存在标签噪声的情况下解决分类问题，更具体地，既有闭合和开放式标签噪声，就是样本的真实标签或可能不属于时给定标签的集合。在我们的方法中，方法是一种样本选择机制，其依赖于样本的注释标签与其邻域中标签的分布之间的一致性;依赖于分类器跨后续迭代的置信机制的依赖标签机制;以及培训编码器的培训策略，同时通过单独的选择样本上的跨熵丢失和分类器编码器培训。没有钟声和口哨，如共同训练，以便减少自我确认偏差，并且对其少数超参数的环境具有鲁棒性，我们的方法显着超越了与人工噪声和真实的CIFAR10 / CIFAR100上的先前方法-world噪声数据集如webvision和动物-10n。

深度学习在大量大数据的帮助下取得了众多域中的显着成功。然而，由于许多真实情景中缺乏高质量标签，数据标签的质量是一个问题。由于嘈杂的标签严重降低了深度神经网络的泛化表现，从嘈杂的标签（强大的培训）学习是在现代深度学习应用中成为一项重要任务。在本调查中，我们首先从监督的学习角度描述了与标签噪声学习的问题。接下来，我们提供62项最先进的培训方法的全面审查，所有这些培训方法都按照其方法论差异分为五个群体，其次是用于评估其优越性的六种性质的系统比较。随后，我们对噪声速率估计进行深入分析，并总结了通常使用的评估方法，包括公共噪声数据集和评估度量。最后，我们提出了几个有前途的研究方向，可以作为未来研究的指导。所有内容将在https://github.com/songhwanjun/awesome-noisy-labels提供。

Semi-supervised learning based methods are current SOTA solutions to the noisy-label learning problem, which rely on learning an unsupervised label cleaner first to divide the training samples into a labeled set for clean data and an unlabeled set for noise data. Typically, the cleaner is obtained via fitting a mixture model to the distribution of per-sample training losses. However, the modeling procedure is \emph{class agnostic} and assumes the loss distributions of clean and noise samples are the same across different classes. Unfortunately, in practice, such an assumption does not always hold due to the varying learning difficulty of different classes, thus leading to sub-optimal label noise partition criteria. In this work, we reveal this long-ignored problem and propose a simple yet effective solution, named \textbf{C}lass \textbf{P}rototype-based label noise \textbf{C}leaner (\textbf{CPC}). Unlike previous works treating all the classes equally, CPC fully considers loss distribution heterogeneity and applies class-aware modulation to partition the clean and noise data. CPC takes advantage of loss distribution modeling and intra-class consistency regularization in feature space simultaneously and thus can better distinguish clean and noise labels. We theoretically justify the effectiveness of our method by explaining it from the Expectation-Maximization (EM) framework. Extensive experiments are conducted on the noisy-label benchmarks CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100, Clothing1M and WebVision. The results show that CPC consistently brings about performance improvement across all benchmarks. Codes and pre-trained models will be released at \url{https://github.com/hjjpku/CPC.git}.

在标签 - 噪声学习中，估计过渡矩阵是一个热门话题，因为矩阵在构建统计上一致的分类器中起着重要作用。传统上，从干净的标签到嘈杂的标签（即，清洁标签过渡矩阵（CLTM））已被广泛利用，以通过使用嘈杂的数据来学习干净的标签分类器。该分类器的动机主要是输出贝叶斯的最佳预测标签，在本文中，我们研究以直接建模从贝叶斯最佳标签过渡到嘈杂标签（即贝叶斯标签，贝叶斯标签，是BLTM）），并学习分类器以预测贝叶斯最佳的分类器标签。请注意，只有嘈杂的数据，它不足以估计CLTM或BLTM。但是，贝叶斯最佳标签与干净标签相比，贝叶斯最佳标签的不确定性较小，即，贝叶斯最佳标签的类后代是一热矢量，而干净标签的载体则不是。这使两个优点能够估算BLTM，即（a）一组具有理论上保证的贝叶斯最佳标签的示例可以从嘈杂的数据中收集； （b）可行的解决方案空间要小得多。通过利用优势，我们通过采用深层神经网络来估计BLTM参数，从而更好地概括和出色的分类性能。

使用嘈杂标签（LNL）学习旨在设计策略来通过减轻模型过度适应嘈杂标签的影响来提高模型性能和概括。 LNL的主要成功在于从大量嘈杂数据中识别尽可能多的干净样品，同时纠正错误分配的嘈杂标签。最近的进步采用了单个样品的预测标签分布来执行噪声验证和嘈杂的标签校正，很容易产生确认偏差。为了减轻此问题，我们提出了邻里集体估计，其中通过将其与其功能空间最近的邻居进行对比，重新估计了候选样本的预测性可靠性。具体而言，我们的方法分为两个步骤：1）邻域集体噪声验证，将所有训练样品分为干净或嘈杂的子集，2）邻里集体标签校正到Relabel嘈杂样品，然后使用辅助技术来帮助进一步的模型优化。 。在四个常用基准数据集（即CIFAR-10，CIFAR-100，Clothing-1M和WebVision-1.0）上进行了广泛的实验，这表明我们提出的方法非常优于最先进的方法。

不完美的标签在现实世界数据集中无处不在，严重损害了模型性能。几个最近处理嘈杂标签的有效方法有两个关键步骤：1）将样品分开通过培训丢失，2）使用半监控方法在错误标记的集合中生成样本的伪标签。然而，由于硬样品和噪声之间的类似损失分布，目前的方法总是损害信息性的硬样品。在本文中，我们提出了PGDF（先前引导的去噪框架），通过生成样本的先验知识来学习深层模型来抑制噪声的新框架，这被集成到分割样本步骤和半监督步骤中。我们的框架可以将更多信息性硬清洁样本保存到干净标记的集合中。此外，我们的框架还通过抑制当前伪标签生成方案中的噪声来促进半监控步骤期间伪标签的质量。为了进一步增强硬样品，我们在训练期间在干净的标记集合中重新重量样品。我们使用基于CiFar-10和CiFar-100的合成数据集以及现实世界数据集WebVision和服装1M进行了评估了我们的方法。结果表明了最先进的方法的大量改进。

部分标签学习（PLL）是一项奇特的弱监督学习任务，其中训练样本通常与一组候选标签而不是单个地面真理相关联。尽管在该域中提出了各种标签歧义方法，但他们通常假设在许多现实世界应用中可能不存在类平衡的方案。从经验上讲，我们在面对长尾分布和部分标记的组合挑战时观察到了先前方法的退化性能。在这项工作中，我们首先确定先前工作失败的主要原因。随后，我们提出了一种新型的基于最佳运输的框架太阳能，它允许完善被歧义的标签，以匹配边缘级别的先验分布。太阳能还结合了一种新的系统机制，用于估计PLL设置下的长尾类先验分布。通过广泛的实验，与先前的最先进的PLL方法相比，太阳能在标准化基准方面表现出基本优势。代码和数据可在以下网址获得：https：//github.com/hbzju/solar。

标签昂贵，有时是不可靠的。嘈杂的标签学习，半监督学习和对比学习是三种不同的设计，用于设计需要更少的注释成本的学习过程。最近已经证明了半监督学习和对比学习，以改善使用嘈杂标签地址数据集的学习策略。尽管如此，这些领域之间的内部连接以及将它们的强度结合在一起的可能性仅开始出现。在本文中，我们探讨了融合它们的进一步方法和优势。具体而言，我们提出了CSSL，统一的对比半监督学习算法和Codim（对比DivideMix），一种用嘈杂标签学习的新算法。 CSSL利用经典半监督学习和对比学习技术的力量，并进一步适应了Codim，其从多种类型和标签噪声水平鲁莽地学习。我们表明Codim带来了一致的改进，并在多个基准上实现了最先进的结果。

对标签噪声的学习是一个至关重要的话题，可以保证深度神经网络的可靠表现。最近的研究通常是指具有模型输出概率和损失值的动态噪声建模，然后分离清洁和嘈杂的样本。这些方法取得了显着的成功。但是，与樱桃挑选的数据不同，现有方法在面对不平衡数据集时通常无法表现良好，这是现实世界中常见的情况。我们彻底研究了这一现象，并指出了两个主要问题，这些问题阻碍了性能，即\ emph {类间损耗分布差异}和\ emph {由于不确定性而引起的误导性预测}。第一个问题是现有方法通常执行类不足的噪声建模。然而，损失分布显示在类失衡下的类别之间存在显着差异，并且类不足的噪声建模很容易与少数族裔类别中的嘈杂样本和样本混淆。第二个问题是指该模型可能会因认知不确定性和不确定性而导致的误导性预测，因此仅依靠输出概率的现有方法可能无法区分自信的样本。受我们的观察启发，我们提出了一个不确定性的标签校正框架〜（ULC）来处理不平衡数据集上的标签噪声。首先，我们执行认识不确定性的班级特异性噪声建模，以识别可信赖的干净样本并精炼/丢弃高度自信的真实/损坏的标签。然后，我们在随后的学习过程中介绍了不确定性，以防止标签噪声建模过程中的噪声积累。我们对几个合成和现实世界数据集进行实验。结果证明了提出的方法的有效性，尤其是在数据集中。

Learning with noisy labels is one of the hottest problems in weakly-supervised learning. Based on memorization effects of deep neural networks, training on small-loss instances becomes very promising for handling noisy labels. This fosters the state-of-the-art approach "Co-teaching" that cross-trains two deep neural networks using the small-loss trick. However, with the increase of epochs, two networks converge to a consensus and Co-teaching reduces to the self-training MentorNet. To tackle this issue, we propose a robust learning paradigm called Co-teaching+, which bridges the "Update by Disagreement" strategy with the original Co-teaching. First, two networks feed forward and predict all data, but keep prediction disagreement data only. Then, among such disagreement data, each network selects its small-loss data, but back propagates the small-loss data from its peer network and updates its own parameters. Empirical results on benchmark datasets demonstrate that Co-teaching+ is much superior to many state-of-theart methods in the robustness of trained models.

Despite being robust to small amounts of label noise, convolutional neural networks trained with stochastic gradient methods have been shown to easily fit random labels. When there are a mixture of correct and mislabelled targets, networks tend to fit the former before the latter. This suggests using a suitable two-component mixture model as an unsupervised generative model of sample loss values during training to allow online estimation of the probability that a sample is mislabelled. Specifically, we propose a beta mixture to estimate this probability and correct the loss by relying on the network prediction (the so-called bootstrapping loss). We further adapt mixup augmentation to drive our approach a step further. Experiments on CIFAR-10/100 and TinyImageNet demonstrate a robustness to label noise that substantially outperforms recent state-of-the-art. Source code is available at https://git.io/fjsvE.
