ProPaLL: Probabilistic Partial Label Learning

Łukasz Struski, Jacek Tabor, Bartosz Zieliński

Partial label learning is a type of weakly supervised learning, where each training instance corresponds to a set of candidate labels, among which only one is true. In this paper, we introduce ProPaLL, a novel probabilistic approach to this problem, which has at least three advantages compared to the existing approaches: it simplifies the training process, improves performance, and can be applied to any deep architecture. Experiments conducted on artificial and real-world datasets indicate that ProPaLL outperforms the existing approaches.
