Title
Adaptive View Validation: A First Step Towards Automatic View Detection
Abstract
Multi-view algorithms reduce the amount of re- quired training data by partitioning the domain features into separate subsets or views that are sufficient to learn the target concept. Such al- gorithms rely on the assumption that the views are sufficiently compatible for multi-view learn- ing (i.e., most examples are labeled identically in all views). In practice, it is unclear whether or not two views are sufficiently compatible for solving a new, unseen learning task. In order to cope with this problem, we introduce a view validation algorithm: given a learning task, the algorithm predicts whether or not the views are sufficiently compatible for solving that partic- ular task. We use information acquired while solving several exemplar learning tasks to train a classifier that discriminates between the tasks for which the views are sufficiently and insuffi- ciently compatible for multi-view learning. Our experiments on wrapper induction and text clas- sification show that view validation requires only a modest amount of training data to make high accuracy predictions.
