Abstract:The laborious process of labeling data often bottlenecks projects that aim to leverage the power of supervised machine learning. Active Learning (AL) has been established as a technique to ameliorate this condition through an iterative framework that queries a human annotator for labels of instances with the most uncertain class assignment. Via this mechanism, AL produces a binary classifier trained on less labeled data but with little, if any, loss in predictive performance. Despite its advantages, AL can hav… Show more
