Pre-train to Gain: Robust Learning Without Clean Labels

The paper proposes a method that first pre‑trains a feature extractor on the target dataset using in‑domain self‑supervised learning (SSL) without labels, then performs standard supervised training on the same noisy dataset. This two‑stage approach eliminates the need for a clean label subset and consistently improves classification accuracy and label‑error detection across synthetic and real‑world noise, especially as noise rates increase. Experiments show that the method matches or surpasses ImageNet and DinoV2 pre‑training, particularly under high noise conditions.

PaSta: Noisy Node Classification with Partial Label Learning

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.
