SELF-TRAINING METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR SEMI-SUPERVISED LEARNING WITH GENERATIVE ADVERSARIAL NETWORKS

摘要

A method and system for augmenting a training dataset for a generative adversarial network (GAN). The training dataset includes labelled data samples and unlabelled data samples. The method includes: receiving generated samples generated using a first neural network of the GAN and the unlabelled samples of training dataset; determining a decision value for a sample from a decision function, wherein the sample is a generated sample of the generated samples or an unlabelled sample of the unlabelled samples of the training dataset; comparing the decision value to a threshold; in response to determining that the decision value exceeds the threshold: predicting a label for a sample; assigning the label to the sample; and augmenting the training dataset to include the sample with the assigned label as a labelled sample.
