摘要： Over the past several years, deep learning has achieved promising performance in many visual tasks, e.g., face verification and object classification. However, a limited number of labeled training samples existing in practical applications is still a huge bottleneck for achieving a satisfactory performance. In this paper, we integrate class estimation of unlabeled training data with deep learning model which generates a novel semi-supervised convolutional neural network (SSCNN) trained by both the labeled training data and unlabeled data. In the framework of SSCNN, the deep convolution feature extraction and the class estimation of the unlabeled data are jointly learned. Specifically, deep convolution features are learned from the labeled training data and unlabeled data with confident class estimation. After the deep features are obtained, the label propagation algorithm is utilized to estimate the identities of unlabeled training samples. The alternative optimization of SSCNN makes the class estimation of unlabeled data more and more accurate due to the learned CNN feature more and more discriminative. We compared the proposed SSCNN with some representative semi-supervised learning approaches on MINIST and Cifar-10 databases. Extensive experiments on landmark databases show the effectiveness of our semi-supervised deep learning framework.
