Partial Label Learning with a Partner

In partial label learning (PLL), each instance is associated with a set of candidate labels among which only one is ground-truth. The majority of the existing works focuses on constructing robust classifiers to estimate the labeling confidence of candidate labels in order to identify the correct one. However, these methods usually struggle to rectify mislabeled samples. To help existing PLL methods identify and rectify mislabeled samples, in this paper, we introduce a novel partner classifier and propose a novel ``mutual supervision'' paradigm. Specifically, we instantiate the partner classifier predicated on the implicit fact that non-candidate labels of a sample should not be assigned to it, which is inherently accurate and has not been fully investigated in PLL. Furthermore, a novel collaborative term is formulated to link the base classifier and the partner one. During each stage of mutual supervision, both classifiers will blur each other's predictions through a blurring mechanism to prevent overconfidence in a specific label. Extensive experiments demonstrate that the performance and disambiguation ability of several well-established stand-alone and deep-learning based PLL approaches can be significantly improved by coupling with this learning paradigm.

Ultrasound based estimation of fetal biometry is extensively used to diagnose prenatal abnormalities and to monitor fetal growth, for which accurate segmentation of the fetal anatomy is a crucial prerequisite. Although deep neural network-based models have achieved encouraging results on this task, inevitable distribution shifts in ultrasound images can still result in severe performance drop in real world deployment scenarios. In this article, we propose a complete ultrasound fetal examination system to deal with this troublesome problem by repairing and screening the anatomically implausible results. Our system consists of three main components: A routine segmentation network, a fetal anatomical key points guided repair network, and a shape-coding based selective screener. Guided by the anatomical key points, our repair network has stronger cross-domain repair capabilities, which can substantially improve the outputs of the segmentation network. By quantifying the distance between an arbitrary segmentation mask to its corresponding anatomical shape class, the proposed shape-coding based selective screener can then effectively reject the entire implausible results that cannot be fully repaired. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our proposed framework has strong anatomical guarantee and outperforms other methods in three different cross-domain scenarios.
