Active learning through density clustering

作者:

Highlights:

• We propose the active learning through density clustering algorithm with three new features.

• We design a new importance measure to select representative instances deterministically.

• We employ tri-partition to determine the action to be taken on each instance.

• The new algorithm generally outperforms state-of-the-art active learning algorithms.

• The new algorithm requires only O(n) of space and O(mn2) of time.
