• A new noisy-label learning algorithm, called ScanMix • ScanMix combines semantic clustering and semi-supervised learning • ScanMix is remarkably robust to severe label noise rates • ScanMix provides competitive performance in a wide range of noisy-label learning problems • A new theoretical result that shows the correctness and convergence of ScanMix [Display omitted] We propose a new training algorithm, ScanMix, that explores semantic clustering and semi-supervised learning (SSL) to allow superior robustness to severe label noise and competitive robustness to non-severe label noise problems, in comparison to the state of the art (SOTA) methods. ScanMix is based on the expectation maximisation framework, where the E-step estimates the latent variable to cluster the training images based on their appearance and classification results, and the M-step optimises the SSL classification and learns effective feature representations via semantic clustering. We present a theoretical result that shows the correctness and convergence of ScanMix, and an empirical result that shows that ScanMix has SOTA results on CIFAR-10/-100 (with symmetric, asymmetric and semantic label noise), Red Mini-ImageNet (from the Controlled Noisy Web Labels), Clothing1M and WebVision. In all benchmarks with severe label noise, our results are competitive to the current SOTA. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
