Abstract
En 中文
In this work, we reveal an essential problem rarely discussed in current semi-supervised learning literatures: the learned feature distribution mismatch problem between labeled samples and unlabeled samples. It is common knowledge that learning from the limited labeled data easily leads to overfitting. However, the difference between the inferred labels of unlabeled data and the ground truths of labeled data may make the learned features of labeled and unlabeled data have different distributions. This distribution mismatch problem may destroy the assumption of smoothness widely used in semi-supervised field, resulting in unsatisfactory performance. In this paper, we propose a novel Semi-supervised Dual-Branch Network (SDB-Net), in which the first branch is trained with labeled and unlabeled data, and the other is trained with the predictions of unlabeled data generated from the first branch only. To avoid the different distributions between ground-truth labels and inferred labels for the unlabeled data, we proposed an effective co-consistency loss to overcome the mismatch problem and a mix-consistency loss to make each branch learn a consistent feature representation. Meanwhile, we designed an augmentation supervised loss for the first branch to further alleviate the mismatch problem. With the designed three kinds of losses, the proposed SDB-Net can be efficiently trained. The experimental results on three benchmark datasets, such as CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100 and SVHN, show the superior performance of the proposed SDB-Net. (C) 2020 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
