Soft-supervised learning for text classification

Abstract: We propose a new graph-based semisupervised learning (SSL) algorithm and demonstrate its application to document categorization. Each document is represented by a vertex within a weighted undirected graph and our proposed framework minimizes the weighted Kullback-Leibler divergence between distributions that encode the class membership probabilities of each vertex. The proposed objective is convex with guaranteed convergence using an alternating minimization procedure. Further, it generalizes in a straightforw… Show more

“…Furthermore, the optimal value for the other parameters were found to be μ 2 = μ 3 = 1. As in previous work [11], we use Precision-Recall Break Even Point (PRBEP) [9] as the evaluation metric. Same evaluation measure, dataset and the same experimental protocol makes the results reported here directly comparable to those reported previously [11].…”

“…We build on previous research [3,17,11] and construct an objective that reflects three requirements as follows. First, for the labeled vertices we like the output of the algorithm to be close to the a-priori given labels, that is Y v ≈Ŷ v .…”
