Abstract
The expansion of the Internet over the last decade and the proliferation of online social communities, such as Facebook, Google+, and Twitter, as well as multimedia sharing sites, such as YouTube, Flickr, and Picasa, has led to a vast increase of available information to the user. In the case of multimedia data, such as images and videos, fast querying and processing of the available information requires the annotation of the multimedia data with semantic descriptors, that is, labels. However, only a small proportion of the available data are labeled. The rest should undergo an annotation-labeling process. The necessity for the creation of automatic annotation algorithms gave birth to label propagation and semi-supervised learning. In this study, basic concepts in graph-based label propagation methods are discussed. Methods for proper graph construction based on the structure of the available data and label inference methods for spreading label information from a few labeled data to a larger set of unlabeled data are reviewed. Applications of label propagation algorithms in digital media, as well as evaluation metrics for measuring their performance, are presented.

Semi-supervised partial label learning algorithm via reliable label propagation
AbstractPartial label learning (PLL) is a weakly supervised learning method that is able to predict one label as the correct answer from a given candidate label set. In PLL, when all possible candidate labels are as signed to real-world training examples, ...
Transductive Multilabel Learning via Label Set Propagation
The problem of multilabel classification has attracted great interest in the last decade, where each instance can be assigned with a set of multiple class labels simultaneously. It has a wide variety of real-world applications, e.g., automatic image ...
Graph-Based Active Learning Based on Label Propagation
MDAI '08 Sabadell: Proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Modeling Decisions for Artificial IntelligenceBy only selecting the most informative instances for labeling, active learning could reduce the labeling cost when labeled instances are hard to obtain. Facing the same situation, semi-supervised learning utilize unlabeled instances to strengthen ...
