Performing controlled experiments on noisy data is essential in understanding deep learning across noise levels. Due to the lack of suitable datasets, previous research has only examined deep learning on controlled synthetic label noise, and real-world label noise has never been studied in a controlled setting. This paper makes three contributions. First, we establish the first benchmark of controlled real-world label noise from the web. This new benchmark enables us to study the web label noise in a controlled setting for the first time. The second contribution is a simple but effective method to overcome both synthetic and real noisy labels. We show that our method achieves the best result on our dataset as well as on two public benchmarks (CIFAR and WebVision). Third, we conduct the largest study by far into understanding deep neural networks trained on noisy labels across different noise levels, noise types, network architectures, and training settings. The data and code are released at the following link: http://www.lujiang.info/cnlw.html

Learning with noisy labels is an important and challenging task for training accurate deep neural networks. Some commonly-used loss functions, such as Cross Entropy (CE), suffer from severe overfitting to noisy labels. Robust loss functions that sati
sfy the symmetric condition were tailored to remedy this problem, which however encounter the underfitting effect. In this paper, we theoretically prove that textbf{any loss can be made robust to noisy labels} by restricting the network output to the set of permutations over a fixed vector. When the fixed vector is one-hot, we only need to constrain the output to be one-hot, which however produces zero gradients almost everywhere and thus makes gradient-based optimization difficult. In this work, we introduce the sparse regularization strategy to approximate the one-hot constraint, which is composed of network output sharpening operation that enforces the output distribution of a network to be sharp and the $ell_p$-norm ($ple 1$) regularization that promotes the network output to be sparse. This simple approach guarantees the robustness of arbitrary loss functions while not hindering the fitting ability. Experimental results demonstrate that our method can significantly improve the performance of commonly-used loss functions in the presence of noisy labels and class imbalance, and outperform the state-of-the-art methods. The code is available at https://github.com/hitcszx/lnl_sr.
Recent studies on the memorization effects of deep neural networks on noisy labels show that the networks first fit the correctly-labeled training samples before memorizing the mislabeled samples. Motivated by this early-learning phenomenon, we propo
se a novel method to prevent memorization of the mislabeled samples. Unlike the existing approaches which use the model output to identify or ignore the mislabeled samples, we introduce an indicator branch to the original model and enable the model to produce a confidence value for each sample. The confidence values are incorporated in our loss function which is learned to assign large confidence values to correctly-labeled samples and small confidence values to mislabeled samples. We also propose an auxiliary regularization term to further improve the robustness of the model. To improve the performance, we gradually correct the noisy labels with a well-designed target estimation strategy. We provide the theoretical analysis and conduct the experiments on synthetic and real-world datasets, demonstrating that our approach achieves comparable results to the state-of-the-art methods.
Deep Learning systems have shown tremendous accuracy in image classification, at the cost of big image datasets. Collecting such amounts of data can lead to labelling errors in the training set. Indexing multimedia content for retrieval, classificati
on or recommendation can involve tagging or classification based on multiple criteria. In our case, we train face recognition systems for actors identification with a closed set of identities while being exposed to a significant number of perturbators (actors unknown to our database). Face classifiers are known to be sensitive to label noise. We review recent works on how to manage noisy annotations when training deep learning classifiers, independently from our interest in face recognition.
Learning with noisy labels has attracted a lot of attention in recent years, where the mainstream approaches are in pointwise manners. Meanwhile, pairwise manners have shown great potential in supervised metric learning and unsupervised contrastive l
earning. Thus, a natural question is raised: does learning in a pairwise manner mitigate label noise? To give an affirmative answer, in this paper, we propose a framework called Class2Simi: it transforms data points with noisy class labels to data pairs with noisy similarity labels, where a similarity label denotes whether a pair shares the class label or not. Through this transformation, the reduction of the noise rate is theoretically guaranteed, and hence it is in principle easier to handle noisy similarity labels. Amazingly, DNNs that predict the clean class labels can be trained from noisy data pairs if they are first pretrained from noisy data points. Class2Simi is computationally efficient because not only this transformation is on-the-fly in mini-batches, but also it just changes loss computation on top of model prediction into a pairwise manner. Its effectiveness is verified by extensive experiments.
The current success of deep learning depends on large-scale labeled datasets. In practice, high-quality annotations are expensive to collect, but noisy annotations are more affordable. Previous works report mixed empirical results when training with
noisy labels: neural networks can easily memorize random labels, but they can also generalize from noisy labels. To explain this puzzle, we study how architecture affects learning with noisy labels. We observe that if an architecture suits the task, training with noisy labels can induce useful hidden representations, even when the model generalizes poorly; i.e., the last few layers of the model are more negatively affected by noisy labels. This finding leads to a simple method to improve models trained on noisy labels: replacing the final dense layers with a linear model, whose weights are learned from a small set of clean data. We empirically validate our findings across three architectures (Convolutional Neural Networks, Graph Neural Networks, and Multi-Layer Perceptrons) and two domains (graph algorithmic tasks and image classification). Furthermore, we achieve state-of-the-art results on image classification benchmarks by combining our method with existing approaches on noisy label training.
