A new self-improving classification system called SIFT (Self-Improving, Frozen-gate Training) has been developed to address the challenges of dynamic document classification in enterprise settings. SIFT utilizes a cost-effective pipeline, combining a SPLADE sparse encoder with a LightGBM head, and escalates only low-confidence predictions to an LLM judge for labeling. This process creates a continuously growing labeled corpus, improving accuracy over time without extensive upfront annotation. Safety is maintained through a two-part promotion gate that checks for critical label regressions and uses a frozen golden regression set to prevent autonomous retraining from degrading performance.
