When applied to high-dimensional datasets, feature selection algorithms might still leave dozens of irrelevant variables in the dataset. Therefore, even after feature selection has been applied, classifiers must be prepared to the presence of irrelevant variables. This paper investigates a new training method called Co…

Deep learning image classifiers usually rely on huge training sets and their training process can be described as learning the similarities and differences among training images. But, images in large training sets are not usually studied from this perspective and fine-level similarities and differences among images is …
We present a novel approach to leverage large unlabeled datasets by pre-training state-of-the-art deep neural networks on randomly-labeled datasets.
