Partial Label Learning via Gaussian Processes.

Partial label learning (PL) is a new weakly supervised machine learning framework that addresses the problems where each training sample is associated with a candidate set of its actual label. Since precisely-labeled data are usually expensive and hard to obtain in practice, PL can be widely used in many real-world tasks. However, as the ambiguity in training data inevitably makes such learning framework difficult to address, only a few algorithms are available so far. In this paper, a new probabilistic kernel algorithm is proposed by employing the Gaussian process model. The main idea is to assume an unobservable latent function with the Gaussian process prior on feature space for each class label. Then a new likelihood function is defined to disambiguate the ambiguous labeling information conveyed by the training data. By introducing the aggregate function to approximate the function involved in likelihood function, not only is a likelihood function equivalent to the max-loss function defined, which has been proved to be tighter than other loss functions, but also a differentiable convex objective function is presented. The experimental results on six UCI data sets and three real-world PL problems show that the proposed algorithm can get higher accuracy than the state-of-the-art PL algorithms.
