Self-supervised learning excels in topic modeling by being less model-specific.
We describe a novel weakly labeled Audio Event Classification approach based on a self-supervised attention model. The weakly labeled framework is used to eliminate the need for expensive data labeling procedure and self-supervised attention is deployed to help a model distinguish between relevant and irrelevant parts …

Recent advances in semi-supervised learning have shown tremendous potential in overcoming a major barrier to the success of modern machine learning algorithms: access to vast amounts of human-labeled training data.

Traditionally, there are three species of classification: unsupervised, supervised, and semi-supervised. Supervised and semi-supervised classification differ by whether or not weight is given to unlabelled observations in the classification procedure. In unsupervised classification, or clustering, all observations are …

Given a set of possible models (e.g., Bayesian network structures) and a data sample, in the unsupervised model selection problem the task is to choose the most accurate model with respect to the domain joint probability distribution. In contrast to this, in supervised model selection it is a priori known that the chos…

Large amounts of labeled data are typically required to train deep learning models. For many real-world problems, however, acquiring additional data can be expensive or even impossible.
