Low-Budget Active Learning through Entropic Optimal Transport

Excerpt

arXiv:2610.01199v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We consider low-budget active learning, which consists of selecting a limited number of points, the coreset, such that a model can be trained to high accuracy on the selection only. This problem is particularly relevant in contexts where labeling requires costly expert intervention, as in medical applications. We leverage features extracted from a pretrained self-supervised model to represent the data, and perform coreset selection directly in this
