Using Trusted Data to Train Deep Networks on Labels Corrupted by Severe Noise

Hendrycks, Dan, Mazeika, Mantas, Wilson, Duncan et al.

Understand

The growing importance of massive datasets used for deep learning makes robustness to label noise a critical property for classifiers to have.

  • Sources of label noise include automatic labeling, non-expert labeling, and label corruption by data poisoning adversaries.
  • Numerous previous works assume that no source of labels can be trusted.
  • We relax this assumption and assume that a small subset of the training data is trusted.
