Deep learning has achieved great success in recent years thanks to the availability of high-quality, well-annotated training data. However, this requirement is often not met in real-world applications.
arXiv:2511. 22823v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Weakly supervised learning has emerged as a practical alternative to fully supervised learning when complete and accurate labels are costly or infeasible to acquire.

PaSta introduces a Partial label-based Self‑training framework for noisy node classification on graphs. The method trains multiple annotators to generate high‑quality partial labels, then uses a partial‑label classification model with two loss functions to learn both labels and representations. A closed‑loop self‑training strategy further refines annotators, yielding an average 1.1% improvement over state‑of‑the‑art methods across five datasets.

Noisy node classification problem is a fundamental yet challenging task for real-world graph-related web services, where node labels are often corrupted or unreliable due to weak supervision or automa...

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.
