How to Query an Oracle? Efficient Strategies to Label Data

Farshad Lahouti;Victoria Kostina;Babak Hassibi

IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence
Year: 2022 | Volume: 44, Issue: 11 | Journal Article |
Cited by: Papers (3)
We consider the basic problem of querying an expert oracle for labeling a dataset in machine learning. This is typically an expensive and time consuming process and therefore, we seek ways to do so efficiently. The conventional approach involves comparing each sample with (the representative of) each class to find a match. In a setting with NN equally likely classes, this involves N/2N/2 pairw...Show More

We propose a two-layer coding architecture for communication of multiple users over a shared slotted medium enabling joint collision resolution and decoding. Each user first encodes its information bits with an outer code for reliability, and then transmits these coded bits with possible repetitions over transmission time slots of the access channel. The transmission patterns are dictated by the i...Show More

Solving a large-scale system of linear equations is a key step at the heart of many algorithms in scientific computing, machine learning, and beyond. When the problem dimension is large, computational and/or memory constraints make it desirable, or even necessary, to perform the task in a distributed fashion. In this paper, we consider a common scenario in which a taskmaster intends to solve a lar...Show More
