Random forest can be adapted for open-set recognition with improved performance.
CGDL improves open set recognition by learning conditional Gaussian distributions.
Open set recognition problems exist in many domains. For example in security, new malware classes emerge regularly; therefore malware classification systems need to identify instances from unknown classes in addition to discriminating between known classes. In this paper we present a neural network based representation…
This paper proposes a method to use deep neural networks as end-to-end open-set classifiers. It is based on intra-class data splitting. In open-set recognition, only samples from a limited number of known classes are available for training. During inference, an open-set classifier must reject samples from unknown class…
Proposes a new framework for open set recognition using conditional probabilistic generative models.
We present an analysis of predictive uncertainty based out-of-distribution detection for different approaches to estimate various models' epistemic uncertainty and contrast it with extreme value theory based open set recognition. While the former alone does not seem to be enough to overcome this challenge, we demonstra…
In real-world recognition/classification tasks, limited by various objective factors, it is usually difficult to collect training samples to exhaust all classes when training a recognizer or classifier. A more realistic scenario is open set recognition (OSR), where incomplete knowledge of the world exists at training t…
Survey on deep learning for malware classification, including unknown threats.
A new method trains deep neural networks for open set domain adaptation without negative open set difference.
GMVAE improves open-set classification by clustering latent representations.
Despite significant progress in object categorization, in recent years, a number of important challenges remain, mainly, ability to learn from limited labeled data and ability to recognize object classes within large, potentially open, set of labels. Zero-shot learning is one way of addressing these challenges, but it …
The Familiarity Hypothesis explains deep open set methods' success in detecting novel objects.
This work bridges continual learning, active learning, and open set recognition in deep neural networks.
In open set recognition (OSR), almost all existing methods are designed specially for recognizing individual instances, even these instances are collectively coming in batch. Recognizers in decision either reject or categorize them to some known class using empirically-set threshold. Thus the decision threshold plays a…
Paper proposes a loss extension for neural networks to improve OSR performance.
Often, when dealing with real-world recognition problems, we do not need, and often cannot have, knowledge of the entire set of possible classes that might appear during operational testing. In such cases, we need to think of robust classification methods able to deal with the "unknown" and properly reject samples belo…
This research generates synthetic data streams for handling concept drifts and novel classes.
End-to-end PGL framework tackles open-set domain shift.
Novel categories are commonly defined as those unobserved during training but present during testing. However, partially labelled training datasets can contain unlabelled training samples that belong to novel categories, meaning these can be present in training and testing. This research is the first to generalise betw…
Deep learning for object classification relies heavily on convolutional models. While effective, CNNs are rarely interpretable after the fact. An attention mechanism can be used to highlight the area of the image that the model focuses on thus offering a narrow view into the mechanism of classification. We expand on th…
Plex improves model reliability across vision and language tasks.
The novel unseen classes can be formulated as the extreme values of known classes. This inspired the recent works on open-set recognition \cite{Scheirer_2013_TPAMI,Scheirer_2014_TPAMIb,EVM}, which however can have no way of naming the novel unseen classes. To solve this problem, we propose the Extreme Value Learning (E…
New method improves OSSL by learning from all unlabeled data.
With the recent renaissance of deep convolution neural networks, encouraging breakthroughs have been achieved on the supervised recognition tasks, where each class has sufficient training data and fully annotated training data. However, to scale the recognition to a large number of classes with few or now training samp…
Active learning selects most informative unlabeled samples for labeling.
Camera model identification refers to the problem of linking a picture to the camera model used to shoot it. As this might be an enabling factor in different forensic applications to single out possible suspects (e.g., detecting the author of child abuse or terrorist propaganda material), many accurate camera model att…
In the process of exploring the world, the curiosity constantly drives humans to cognize new things. Supposing you are a zoologist, for a presented animal image, you can recognize it immediately if you know its class. Otherwise, you would more likely attempt to cognize it by exploiting the side-information (e.g., seman…
This paper reviews information theory in open-world machine learning.
Modern deep neural networks are well known to be brittle in the face of unknown data instances and recognition of the latter remains a challenge. Although it is inevitable for continual-learning systems to encounter such unseen concepts, the corresponding literature appears to nonetheless focus primarily on alleviating…
Learning a good speaker embedding is important for many automatic speaker recognition tasks, including verification, identification and diarization. The embeddings learned by softmax are not discriminative enough for open-set verification tasks. Angular based embedding learning target can achieve such discriminativenes…
Integrates multiple datasets to solve open set crowdsourcing problems.
The aim of unsupervised domain adaptation is to leverage the knowledge in a labeled (source) domain to improve a model's learning performance with an unlabeled (target) domain -- the basic strategy being to mitigate the effects of discrepancies between the two distributions. Most existing algorithms can only handle uns…
New bounds on inscribed triangles in arbitrary planar domains.
In open set learning, a model must be able to generalize to novel classes when it encounters a sample that does not belong to any of the classes it has seen before. Open set learning poses a realistic learning scenario that is receiving growing attention. Existing studies on open set learning mainly focused on detectin…
New method for estimating class proportions in open-set label shift data.
Estimates open sets for fibrations, leading to volume vanishing results.
FedOS tackles challenges in federated learning by using open-set learning.
This paper presents a study on discriminative artificial neural network classifiers in the context of open-set speaker identification. Both 2-class and multi-class architectures are tested against the conventional Gaussian mixture model based classifier on enrolled speaker sets of different sizes. The performance evalu…
Machine-learned diagnosis models have shown promise as medical aides but are trained under a closed-set assumption, i.e. that models will only encounter conditions on which they have been trained. However, it is practically infeasible to obtain sufficient training data for every human condition, and once deployed such …
The classification of textual data often yields important information. Most classifiers work in a closed world setting where the classifier is trained on a known corpus, and then it is tested on unseen examples that belong to one of the classes seen during training. Despite the usefulness of this design, often there is…

Novikov's problem of semiclassical orbits of quasi-electrons in a normal metal leads to a correspondance between 3-ply periodic functions in R and fractals in R P^2. These fractals are the complement of infinitely many open sets labeled by integer 2-cycles of T^3. Here we present a characterization of the fractal point…
This paper presents some partial answers to the following question. QUESTION. If a normal space X is the union of an increasing sequence of open sets U(1), U(2), U(3) ... such that each U(n) contracts to a point in X, must X be contractible? The main results of the paper are: THEOREM 1. If a normal space X is the union…
In conventional domain adaptation, a critical assumption is that there exists a fully labeled domain (source) that contains the same label space as another unlabeled or scarcely labeled domain (target). However, in the real world, there often exist application scenarios in which both domains are partially labeled and n…
