ABSTRACT
This paper presents a novel framework that can combine latent semantic learning and reduced hypergraph learning for semi-supervised image categorization. To improve the traditional bag-of-features representation, we first propose a semantics-aware representation which can learn latent semantics automatically from a large vocabulary of abundant visual keywords through contextual spectral embedding. The learnt latent semantics can be readily used to define a histogram intersection kernel. Based on this semantics-aware kernel, we further develop a reduced hypergraph-based semi-supervised learning method to exploit both labeled and unlabeled images for image categorization. Experimental results have shown that the proposed framework can achieve significant improvements with respect to the state of the arts.

Combining active learning and semi-supervised for improving learning performance
ISABEL '11: Proceedings of the 4th International Symposium on Applied Sciences in Biomedical and Communication TechnologiesIn many learning tasks, there are abundant unlabeled samples but the number of labeled training samples is limited, because labeling the samples requires the efforts of human annotators and expertise. There are three major techniques for labeling the ...
Inductive Semi-supervised Multi-Label Learning with Co-Training
KDD '17: Proceedings of the 23rd ACM SIGKDD International Conference on Knowledge Discovery and Data MiningIn multi-label learning, each training example is associated with multiple class labels and the task is to learn a mapping from the feature space to the power set of label space. It is generally demanding and time-consuming to obtain labels for training ...
Regularized Semi-Supervised Latent Dirichlet Allocation for visual concept learning
Topic model is a popular tool for visual concept learning. Most topic models are either unsupervised or fully supervised. In this paper, to take advantage of both limited labeled training images and rich unlabeled images, we propose a novel regularized ...
