“…AL and example selection Active learning (AL) (Lewis and Catlett, 1994;Settles and Craven, 2008;Settles, 2009;Houlsby et al, 2011) is a well-studied field that investigates how machine learning algorithms might automatically select helpful additional data points to maximize their performance. Such strategies are especially helpful in imbalanced settings (Ertekin et al, 2007;Mussmann et al, 2020) and have been fruitfully applied to deep models (Gal et al, 2017;Beluch et al, 2018), including pretrained models (Yuan et al, 2020;Margatina et al, 2021;Shelmanov et al, 2021). Past work has also considered AL for few-shot learning (Woodward and Finn, 2017).…”
