New MTSSL framework unifies pseudo-label thresholding in semi-supervised learning

Researchers have introduced Meta-Thresholding Semi-Supervised Learning (MTSSL), a novel framework that unifies the understanding of pseudo-label thresholding in semi-supervised learning. The study statistically explains how the threshold parameter balances correct and incorrect pseudo-labels, suggesting that precise optimal values may not be necessary. By treating the threshold as an updatable parameter optimized through differentiation, MTSSL demonstrates superior performance in extensive experiments and indicates a potential relaxation in threshold selection for future semi-supervised learning algorithm designs.

    MTSSL: Meta-Thresholding Semi-Supervised Learning

    arXiv:2607.16363v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A large body of Semi-supervised Learning~(SSL) algorithms encounter the threshold $\tau$ to select pseudo-labels. The value of $\tau$ across different SSL algorithms can vary depending on the learning perspective, yet they may achie…
