In this work, we propose MixMOOD - a systematic approach to mitigate effect of class distribution mismatch in semi-supervised deep learning (SSDL) with MixMatch. This work is divided into two components: (i) an extensive out of distribution (OOD) ablation test bed for SSDL and (ii) a quantitative unlabelled dataset selection heuristic referred to as MixMOOD. In the first part, we analyze the sensitivity of MixMatch accuracy under 90 different distribution mismatch scenarios across three multi-class classification tasks. These are designed to systematically understand how OOD unlabelled data affects MixMatch performance. In the second part, we propose an efficient and effective method, called deep dataset dissimilarity measures (DeDiMs), to compare labelled and unlabelled datasets. The proposed DeDiMs are quick to evaluate and model agnostic. They use the feature space of a generic Wide-ResNet and can be applied prior to learning. Our test results reveal that supposed semantic similarity between labelled and unlabelled data is not a good heuristic for unlabelled data selection. In contrast, strong correlation between MixMatch accuracy and the proposed DeDiMs allow us to quantitatively rank different unlabelled datasets ante hoc according to expected MixMatch accuracy. This is what we call MixMOOD. Furthermore, we argue that the MixMOOD approach can aid to standardize the evaluation of different semi-supervised learning techniques under real world scenarios involving out of distribution data.

Semi-Supervised Learning (SSL) has achieved great success in overcoming the difficulties of labeling and making full use of unlabeled data. However, SSL has a limited assumption that the numbers of samples in different classes are balanced, and many
SSL algorithms show lower performance for the datasets with the imbalanced class distribution. In this paper, we introduce a task of class-imbalanced semi-supervised learning (CISSL), which refers to semi-supervised learning with class-imbalanced data. In doing so, we consider class imbalance in both labeled and unlabeled sets. First, we analyze existing SSL methods in imbalanced environments and examine how the class imbalance affects SSL methods. Then we propose Suppressed Consistency Loss (SCL), a regularization method robust to class imbalance. Our method shows better performance than the conventional methods in the CISSL environment. In particular, the more severe the class imbalance and the smaller the size of the labeled data, the better our method performs.
In the context of the global coronavirus pandemic, different deep learning solutions for infected subject detection using chest X-ray images have been proposed. However, deep learning models usually need large labelled datasets to be effective. Semi-
supervised deep learning is an attractive alternative, where unlabelled data is leveraged to improve the overall models accuracy. However, in real-world usage settings, an unlabelled dataset might present a different distribution than the labelled dataset (i.e. the labelled dataset was sampled from a target clinic and the unlabelled dataset from a source clinic). This results in a distribution mismatch between the unlabelled and labelled datasets. In this work, we assess the impact of the distribution mismatch between the labelled and the unlabelled datasets, for a semi-supervised model trained with chest X-ray images, for COVID-19 detection. Under strong distribution mismatch conditions, we found an accuracy hit of almost 30%, suggesting that the unlabelled dataset distribution has a strong influence in the behaviour of the model. Therefore, we propose a straightforward approach to diminish the impact of such distribution mismatch. Our proposed method uses a density approximation of the feature space. It is built upon the target dataset to filter out the observations in the source unlabelled dataset that might harm the accuracy of the semi-supervised model. It assumes that a small labelled source dataset is available together with a larger source unlabelled dataset. Our proposed method does not require any model training, it is simple and computationally cheap. We compare our proposed method against two popular state of the art out-of-distribution data detectors, which are also cheap and simple to implement. In our tests, our method yielded accuracy gains of up to 32%, when compared to the previous state of the art methods.
In high-dimensional data space, semi-supervised feature learning based on Euclidean distance shows instability under a broad set of conditions. Furthermore, the scarcity and high cost of labels prompt us to explore new semi-supervised learning method
s with the fewest labels. In this paper, we develop a novel Minor Constraint Disturbances-based Deep Semi-supervised Feature Learning framework (MCD-DSFL) from the perspective of probability distribution for feature representation. There are two fundamental modules in the proposed framework: one is a Minor Constraint Disturbances-based restricted Boltzmann machine with Gaussian visible units (MCDGRBM) for modelling continuous data and the other is a Minor Constraint Disturbances-based restricted Boltzmann machine (MCDRBM) for modelling binary data. The Minor Constraint Disturbances (MCD) consist of less instance-level constraints which are produced by only two randomly selected labels from each class. The Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergences of the MCD are fused into the Contrastive Divergence (CD) learning for training the proposed MCDGRBM and MCDRBM models. Then, the probability distributions of hidden layer features are as similar as possible in the same class and they are as dissimilar as possible in the different classes simultaneously. Despite the weak influence of the MCD for our shallow models (MCDGRBM and MCDRBM), the proposed deep MCD-DSFL framework improves the representation capability significantly under its leverage effect. The semi-supervised strategy based on the KL divergence of the MCD significantly reduces the reliance on the labels and improves the stability of the semi-supervised feature learning in high-dimensional space simultaneously.
In real-world applications, it is often expensive and time-consuming to obtain labeled examples. In such cases, knowledge transfer from related domains, where labels are abundant, could greatly reduce the need for extensive labeling efforts. In this
scenario, transfer learning comes in hand. In this paper, we propose Deep Variational Transfer (DVT), a variational autoencoder that transfers knowledge across domains using a shared latent Gaussian mixture model. Thanks to the combination of a semi-supervised ELBO and parameters sharing across domains, we are able to simultaneously: (i) align all supervised examples of the same class into the same latent Gaussian Mixture component, independently from their domain; (ii) predict the class of unsupervised examples from different domains and use them to better model the occurring shifts. We perform tests on MNIST and USPS digits datasets, showing DVTs ability to perform transfer learning across heterogeneous datasets. Additionally, we present DVTs top classification performances on the MNIST semi-supervised learning challenge. We further validate DVT on a astronomical datasets. DVT achieves states-of-the-art classification performances, transferring knowledge across real stars surveys datasets, EROS, MACHO and HiTS, . In the worst performance, we double the achieved F1-score for rare classes. These experiments show DVTs ability to tackle all major challenges posed by transfer learning: different covariate distributions, different and highly imbalanced class distributions and different feature spaces.
While neural networks for learning representation of multi-view data have been previously proposed as one of the state-of-the-art multi-view dimension reduction techniques, how to make the representation discriminative with only a small amount of lab
eled data is not well-studied. We introduce a semi-supervised neural network model, named Multi-view Discriminative Neural Network (MDNN), for multi-view problems. MDNN finds nonlinear view-specific mappings by projecting samples to a common feature space using multiple coupled deep networks. It is capable of leveraging both labeled and unlabeled data to project multi-view data so that samples from different classes are separated and those from the same class are clustered together. It also uses the inter-view correlation between views to exploit the available information in both the labeled and unlabeled data. Extensive experiments conducted on four datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm for multi-view semi-supervised learning.
