Task: Summarization
Input (English): Semi-Supervised Learning (SSL) approaches have been an influential framework for the usage of unlabeled data when there is not a sufficient amount of labeled data available over the course of training. SSL methods based on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have recently provided successful results on standard benchmark tasks such as image classification. In this work, we consider the general setting of  SSL problem where the labeled and unlabeled data  come from the same underlying probability distribution. We  propose a new approach that adopts  an Optimal Transport (OT) technique serving as a metric of similarity between discrete empirical probability measures to  provide pseudo-labels for the unlabeled data, which can then be used in conjunction with the initial labeled data to train the CNN model in an SSL manner. We have evaluated and compared our proposed method with state-of-the-art SSL algorithms on standard datasets to demonstrate the superiority and effectiveness of our  SSL algorithm.
Output (English): We propose a new algorithm based on the optimal transport to train a CNN in an SSL fashion.
