Abstract. Active learning aims at reducing the number of training examples to be labeled by automatically processing the unlabeled examples, then selecting the most informative ones with respect to a given cost function for a human to label. The major problem is to find the best selection strategy function to quickly reach high classification accuracy. Query-by-Committee (QBC) method of active learning is less computation than other active learning approaches, but its classification accuracy can not achieve the same high as passive learning. In this paper, a new selection strategy for the QBC method is presented by combining Vote Entropy with Kullback-Leibler divergence. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is better than previous QBC approach in classification accuracy. It can reach the same accuracy as passive learning with few labeled training examples.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
