Semi-supervised learning on class-imbalanced data, although a realistic problem, has been under studied. While existing semi-supervised learning (SSL) methods are known to perform poorly on minority classes, we find that they still generate high precision pseudo-labels on minority classes. By exploiting this property, in this work, we propose Class-Rebalancing Self-Training (CReST), a simple yet effective framework to improve existing SSL methods on class-imbalanced data. CReST iteratively retrains a baseline SSL model with a labeled set expanded by adding pseudo-labeled samples from an unlabeled set, where pseudo-labeled samples from minority classes are selected more frequently according to an estimated class distribution. We also propose a progressive distribution alignment to adaptively adjust the rebalancing strength dubbed CReST+. We show that CReST and CReST+ improve state-of-the-art SSL algorithms on various class-imbalanced datasets and consistently outperform other popular rebalancing methods. Code has been made available at https://github.com/google-research/crest.

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.
Semi-Supervised Learning (SSL) has shown its strong ability in utilizing unlabeled data when labeled data is scarce. However, most SSL algorithms work under the assumption that the class distributions are balanced in both training and test sets. In t
his work, we consider the problem of SSL on class-imbalanced data, which better reflects real-world situations but has only received limited attention so far. In particular, we decouple the training of the representation and the classifier, and systematically investigate the effects of different data re-sampling techniques when training the whole network including a classifier as well as fine-tuning the feature extractor only. We find that data re-sampling is of critical importance to learn a good classifier as it increases the accuracy of the pseudo-labels, in particular for the minority classes in the unlabeled data. Interestingly, we find that accurate pseudo-labels do not help when training the feature extractor, rather contrariwise, data re-sampling harms the training of the feature extractor. This finding is against the general intuition that wrong pseudo-labels always harm the model performance in SSL. Based on these findings, we suggest to re-think the current paradigm of having a single data re-sampling strategy and develop a simple yet highly effective Bi-Sampling (BiS) strategy for SSL on class-imbalanced data. BiS implements two different re-sampling strategies for training the feature extractor and the classifier and integrates this decoupled training into an end-to-end framework...

Semi-supervised learning (SSL) has a potential to improve the predictive performance of machine learning models using unlabeled data. Although there has been remarkable recent progress, the scope of demonstration in SSL has mainly been on image class
ification tasks. In this paper, we propose STAC, a simple yet effective SSL framework for visual object detection along with a data augmentation strategy. STAC deploys highly confident pseudo labels of localized objects from an unlabeled image and updates the model by enforcing consistency via strong augmentations. We propose experimental protocols to evaluate the performance of semi-supervised object detection using MS-COCO and show the efficacy of STAC on both MS-COCO and VOC07. On VOC07, STAC improves the AP$^{0.5}$ from $76.30$ to $79.08$; on MS-COCO, STAC demonstrates $2{times}$ higher data efficiency by achieving 24.38 mAP using only 5% labeled data than supervised baseline that marks 23.86% using 10% labeled data. The code is available at https://github.com/google-research/ssl_detection/.
Recent semi-supervised learning methods use pseudo supervision as core idea, especially self-training methods that generate pseudo labels. However, pseudo labels are unreliable. Self-training methods usually rely on single model prediction confidence
to filter low-confidence pseudo labels, thus remaining high-confidence errors and wasting many low-confidence correct labels. In this paper, we point out it is difficult for a model to counter its own errors. Instead, leveraging inter-model disagreement between different models is a key to locate pseudo label errors. With this new viewpoint, we propose mutual training between two different models by a dynamically re-weighted loss function, called Dynamic Mutual Training (DMT). We quantify inter-model disagreement by comparing predictions from two different models to dynamically re-weight loss in training, where a larger disagreement indicates a possible error and corresponds to a lower loss value. Extensive experiments show that DMT achieves state-of-the-art performance in both image classification and semantic segmentation. Our codes are released at https://github.com/voldemortX/DST-CBC .
Self-supervised learning presents a remarkable performance to utilize unlabeled data for various video tasks. In this paper, we focus on applying the power of self-supervised methods to improve semi-supervised action proposal generation. Particularly
, we design an effective Self-supervised Semi-supervised Temporal Action Proposal (SSTAP) framework. The SSTAP contains two crucial branches, i.e., temporal-aware semi-supervised branch and relation-aware self-supervised branch. The semi-supervised branch improves the proposal model by introducing two temporal perturbations, i.e., temporal feature shift and temporal feature flip, in the mean teacher framework. The self-supervised branch defines two pretext tasks, including masked feature reconstruction and clip-order prediction, to learn the relation of temporal clues. By this means, SSTAP can better explore unlabeled videos, and improve the discriminative abilities of learned action features. We extensively evaluate the proposed SSTAP on THUMOS14 and ActivityNet v1.3 datasets. The experimental results demonstrate that SSTAP significantly outperforms state-of-the-art semi-supervised methods and even matches fully-supervised methods.
