With the widespread use of machine learning for classification, it becomes increasingly important to be able to use weaker kinds of supervision for tasks in which it is hard to obtain standard labeled data. One such kind of supervision is provided pairwise---in the form of Similar (S) pairs (if two examples belong to the same class) and Dissimilar (D) pairs (if two examples belong to different classes). This kind of supervision is realistic in privacy-sensitive domains. Although this problem has been looked at recently, it is unclear how to learn from such supervision under label noise, which is very common when the supervision is crowd-sourced. In this paper, we close this gap and demonstrate how to learn a classifier from noisy S and D labeled data. We perform a detailed investigation of this problem under two realistic noise models and propose two algorithms to learn from noisy S-D data. We also show important connections between learning from such pairwise supervision data and learning from ordinary class-labeled data. Finally, we perform experiments on synthetic and real world datasets and show our noise-informed algorithms outperform noise-blind baselines in learning from noisy pairwise data.

Active Learning is essential for more label-efficient deep learning. Bayesian Active Learning has focused on BALD, which reduces model parameter uncertainty. However, we show that BALD gets stuck on out-of-distribution or junk data that is not releva
nt for the task. We examine a novel *Expected Predictive Information Gain (EPIG)* to deal with distribution shifts of the pool set. EPIG reduces the uncertainty of *predictions* on an unlabelled *evaluation set* sampled from the test data distribution whose distribution might be different to the pool set distribution. Based on this, our new EPIG-BALD acquisition function for Bayesian Neural Networks selects samples to improve the performance on the test data distribution instead of selecting samples that reduce model uncertainty everywhere, including for out-of-distribution regions with low density in the test data distribution. Our method outperforms state-of-the-art Bayesian active learning methods on high-dimensional datasets and avoids out-of-distribution junk data in cases where current state-of-the-art methods fail.
Interactive learning is a process in which a machine learning algorithm is provided with meaningful, well-chosen examples as opposed to randomly chosen examples typical in standard supervised learning. In this paper, we propose a new method for inter
active learning from multiple noisy labels where we exploit the disagreement among annotators to quantify the easiness (or meaningfulness) of an example. We demonstrate the usefulness of this method in estimating the parameters of a latent variable classification model, and conduct experimental analyses on a range of synthetic and benchmark datasets. Furthermore, we theoretically analyze the performance of perceptron in this interactive learning framework.
Inherent risk scoring is an important function in anti-money laundering, used for determining the riskiness of an individual during onboarding $textit{before}$ fraudulent transactions occur. It is, however, often fraught with two challenges: (1) inco
nsistent notions of what constitutes as high or low risk by experts and (2) the lack of labeled data. This paper explores a new paradigm of data labeling and data collection to tackle these issues. The data labeling is choice-based; the expert does not provide an absolute risk score but merely chooses the most/least risky example out of a small choice set, which reduces inconsistency because experts make only relative judgments of risk. The data collection is synthetic; examples are crafted using optimal experimental design methods, obviating the need for real data which is often difficult to obtain due to regulatory concerns. We present the methodology of an end-to-end inherent risk scoring algorithm that we built for a large financial institution. The system was trained on a small set of synthetic data (188 examples, 24 features) whose labels are obtained via the choice-based paradigm using an efficient number of expert labelers. The system achieves 89% accuracy on a test set of 52 examples, with an area under the ROC curve of 93%.
Reinforcement learning has achieved great success in various applications. To learn an effective policy for the agent, it usually requires a huge amount of data by interacting with the environment, which could be computational costly and time consumi
ng. To overcome this challenge, the framework called Reinforcement Learning with Expert Demonstrations (RLED) was proposed to exploit the supervision from expert demonstrations. Although the RLED methods can reduce the number of learning iterations, they usually assume the demonstrations are perfect, and thus may be seriously misled by the noisy demonstrations in real applications. In this paper, we propose a novel framework to adaptively learn the policy by jointly interacting with the environment and exploiting the expert demonstrations. Specifically, for each step of the demonstration trajectory, we form an instance, and define a joint loss function to simultaneously maximize the expected reward and minimize the difference between agent behaviors and demonstrations. Most importantly, by calculating the expected gain of the value function, we assign each instance with a weight to estimate its potential utility, and thus can emphasize the more helpful demonstrations while filter out noisy ones. Experimental results in various environments with multiple popular reinforcement learning algorithms show that the proposed approach can learn robustly with noisy demonstrations, and achieve higher performance in fewer iterations.
A similarity label indicates whether two instances belong to the same class while a class label shows the class of the instance. Without class labels, a multi-class classifier could be learned from similarity-labeled pairwise data by meta classificat
ion learning. However, since the similarity label is less informative than the class label, it is more likely to be noisy. Deep neural networks can easily remember noisy data, leading to overfitting in classification. In this paper, we propose a method for learning from only noisy-similarity-labeled data. Specifically, to model the noise, we employ a noise transition matrix to bridge the class-posterior probability between clean and noisy data. We further estimate the transition matrix from only noisy data and build a novel learning system to learn a classifier which can assign noise-free class labels for instances. Moreover, we theoretically justify how our proposed method generalizes for learning classifiers. Experimental results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed method over the state-of-the-art method on benchmark-simulated and real-world noisy-label datasets.
