arXiv:2605. 03135v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Standard classification treats all errors equally, but in applications such as content moderation and medical screening, mistakes on clear-cut cases are more costly than errors on ambiguous ones.
arXiv:2604. 27723v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Learning algorithms can be significantly improved by routing complex or uncertain inputs to specialized experts, balancing accuracy with computational cost.
arXiv:2608. 03511v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Active learning (AL) promises to reduce the cost of medical imaging projects by lowering the number of clinical labels required.
arXiv:2607. 24622v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study imbalanced crowdsourcing with a focus on class-dependent annotator accuracy, a setting that, to the best of our knowledge, remains relatively underexplored despite its importance in real-world inspection systems where the labels of greatest operational importance are also the rarest ones.
arXiv:2409. 13007v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Class imbalance poses a significant challenge in classification tasks, often causing standard learning algorithms to become biased toward the majority class.
We study imbalanced crowdsourcing with a focus on class-dependent annotator accuracy, a setting that, to the best of our knowledge, remains relatively underexplored despite its importance in real-world inspection systems where the labels of greatest operational importance are also the rarest ones. In this setting, annotators may be reliable on both classes, unreliable on both classes, majority-class specialists, or minority-class specialists.
arXiv:2606. 14965v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Synthetic instance-dependent label noise (IDN) benchmarks are widely used to evaluate noisy-label learning methods, yet existing approaches typically generate noise through imperfect annotators or classifier raters, leaving the source of ambiguity implicit.
arXiv:2607. 20497v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Prompt optimization for text classification spans diverse approaches, from demonstration selection to exploration-based search to error-driven diagnosis, each with known but incompletely characterized strengths and limitations.
arXiv:2607. 27143v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: High-stakes decision systems in credit scoring, fraud detection, healthcare, and industrial safety require reliable uncertainty quantification under severe class imbalance and asymmetric error costs.
arXiv:2512. 17788v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Multi-instance partial-label learning (MIPL) is a weakly supervised framework that extends the principles of multi-instance learning (MIL) and partial-label learning (PLL) to address the challenges of inexact supervision in both instance and label spaces.
arXiv:2607. 22644v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Real-world document classification pipelines typically apply the same sequence of models to every incoming document, regardless of its complexity or type.
arXiv:2608. 03437v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While human evaluation is the gold standard in many NLP tasks, it suffers from prohibitive costs and poor scalability.
Training-free few-shot adaptation methods have gained significant attention recently in the context of Vision-language Models (VLMs). Yet, current benchmarks rely on strong assumptions about the statistics of the adaptation data, e.
