Abstract

In many practical machine learning or data mining applications, unlabeled training examples are readily available but labeled ones are fairly expensive to obtain because labeling the examples require human effort. So, learning with unlabeled data has attracted much attention during the past few years. This paper shows that how such techniques can be helpful in a difficult task, content-based image retrieval, for improving the retrieval performance by exploiting images existing in the database.
