Optimization Algorithms for Plane Selection in Interactive 3D Image Segmentation

Segmentation of 3D medical images is useful for various medical tasks. However, fully automated segmentation lacks the accuracy required for medical purposes while manual segmentation is too time-consuming. Therefore, an active learning method can be used to generate an accurate segmentation using less user input. The active learning pipeline...

BaSAL: Class Balanced Warm Start Active Learning for LiDAR Semantic Segmentation

Active learning has been proposed as a solution to mitigate the expensive and time-consuming process of annotating large-scale autonomous driving datasets. The process typically involves a model initialization phase, followed by multiple iterations aiming at selecting the most informative data based on the initial model. However, we find two...

Aligning AI with Human Norms: Multi-Objective Deep Reinforcement Learning with Active Preference Elicitation

The field of deep reinforcement learning has seen major successes recently, achieving superhuman performance in discrete games such as Go and the Atari domain, as well as astounding results in continuous robot locomotion tasks. However, the correct specification of human intentions in a reward function is highly challenging, which is why state...

Multi-AL: Robust Active learning for Multi-label Classifier

Multi-label learning is becoming more and moreimportant as real-world data often contains multi-ple labels. The dataset used for learning such aclassifier is of great importance. Acquiring a cor-rectly labelled dataset is however a difficult task.Active learning is a method which can, given anoisy dataset, identify important instances for...

Robust Multi-label Active Learning for Missing Labels

Multi-label classification has gained a lot of attraction in the field of computer vision over the past couple of years. Here, each instance belongs to multiple class labels simultaneously. There are numerous methods for Multi-label classification, however all of them make the assumption that either the training images are completely labelled or...

Exploiting structure in counterexamples to speed up equivalence checking in the minimally adequate teacher framework: Active Learning

Active state machine learning algorithms are a class of algorithms that allow us to infer state machines representing certain systems. These algorithms interact with a system and build a hypothesis of what the state machine describing that system looks like according to the behavior they observed. Once the algorithm arrives at a hypothesis, it...

Population-based Active Learning for Black-Box Regression

Many applications employ models to represent real-life environments efficiently. To allow these models to be realistic it is commonly fitted using a dataset containing labeled samples. When obtaining a label for a sample from the environment is expensive, it is key that the dataset contains only those samples that aid in providing a realistic...

Discrete state-space active inference and unknown controlled state transitions

Active inference is a process theory arising from neuroscience which casts perception, action, planning and learning under one optimisation criterion: minimisation of free energy. Current literature on the implementation of discrete state-space active inference focuses on scalability, the comparison to reinforcement learning and its performance...

Active Learning for Overlay Prediction in Semi-conductor Manufacturing

In the manufacturing of semi-conductor devices there is a constant demand for increasing precision and yield. Measuring and controlling overlay errors is essential in this process, but these measurements are difficult and costly. Predictive models can be used as an addition to measurements, but they required labelled data for training. To...

Data Analytics in Web-based Education in the Higher-education Classroom

Attention span of students in a classroom is very short. To overcome this, different active learning methodologies have been used in the past. Active learning keeps the students busy and engaged throughout the lecture. It breaks the lecture into certain time intervals by intermixing breaks, demonstrations and questions after each interval. For...

Active Learning in Image Quality Assessment

A world without digital images is unthinkable in this era of information and communication technology. Billions of images are created, shared and ultimately enjoyed by users every day. However, digital images are sensitive to a wide variety of distortions during the delivery mechanism it goes through. Any of the distortions that can arise during...

Interactive 3D Segmentation of CT-scans of the Hip Joint, Using Active Learning to Select Delineation Planes

This paper evaluates a method that improves segmentation e ciency by intelligently suggesting planes where correction is most valuable. An existing method is extended to work for segmentation of multiple bones simultaneously. This method is evaluated because in clinical practice it is often necessary that scans are segmented very accurate. When...
