Detection and elimination of class noise in large datasets using partitioning filter technique

Class label noise is a critical component of data quality that directly inhibits the predictive performance of machine learning algorithms. While many data-level and algorithm-level methods exist for treating label noise, the challenges associated with big data call for new and improved methods. This survey addresses these concerns by providing an extensive literature review on treating label noise within big data. We begin with an introduction to the class label noise problem and traditional methods for treating label noise. Next, we present 30 methods for treating class label noise in a range of big data contexts, i.e. high volume, high variety, and high velocity problems. The surveyed works include distributed solutions capable of operating on data sets of arbitrary sizes, deep learning techniques for large-scale data sets with limited clean labels, and streaming techniques for detecting class noise in the presence of concept drift. Common trends and best practices are identified in each of these areas, implementation details are reviewed, empirical results are compared across studies when applicable, and references to 17 open-source projects and programming packages are provided. An emphasis on label noise challenges, solutions, and empirical results as they relate to big data distinguishes this work as a unique contribution that will inspire future research and guide machine learning practitioners.
