Unified framework for weakly supervised learning proposed with theoretical guarantees

A research paper proposes a unified framework for weakly supervised learning, aiming to address the limitations of existing methods that are often tailored to specific supervision patterns and require post-hoc stabilization. This new framework directly formulates a stable surrogate risk, encompassing various settings like positive-unlabeled, unlabeled-unlabeled, and complementary-label learning. The authors provide theoretical guarantees with a non-asymptotic generalization bound and analyze the impact of class-prior misspecification, demonstrating consistent performance gains across experiments without heuristic stabilization.

    A Unified and Stable Risk Minimization Framework for Weakly Supervised Learning with Theoretical Guarantees

    arXiv:2511.22823v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Weakly supervised learning has emerged as a practical alternative to fully supervised learning when complete and accurate labels are costly or infeasible to acquire. However, many existing methods are tailored to specific …
