Background
Semi-supervised learning (SSL) is a machine learning paradigm that leverages both labelled and unlabeled data to improve model performance. The traditional SSL approach involves training models with pseudo-labels assigned to unlabeled data. However, this technique often encounters challenges in situations where the pseudo-labels are noisy, leading to overconfident predictions and suboptimal performance, particularly in complex tasks. To address these shortcomings, recent advances in SSL have focused on regularization methods to improve model robustness and generalization. Among these techniques, one stands out: consistency regularization, which emphasizes the importance of maintaining consistency between predictions of the same image when it is subjected to various augmentations. This consistency across different augmentations helps models learn more invariant representations and can effectively reduce overfitting on noisy pseudo-labels.
Goals
- Method Development: The primary goal of this thesis is to advance the field of semi-supervised learning by proposing and developing a novel framework for SSL that integrates the concept of multi-view consistency. This framework aims to address limitations inherent in traditional SSL methods, offering a robust approach to harnessing unlabeled data effectively across diverse machine-learning applications.
- Performance Enhancement: Central to this research is the objective to design SSL algorithms that exhibit heightened resilience to the challenges presented by noisy pseudo-labels. The research aims to quantify the efficacy of the novel framework in strengthening model robustness and its capability to tackle intricate tasks.
- Real-World Applications: Beyond theoretical contributions, the research seeks to validate the practical utility of the proposed framework. This involves applying the framework to real-world scenarios across various domains. The goal is to demonstrate that the framework has the potential to significantly elevate the performance of SSL models in a wide array of real-world applications.
