ACTIVE LEARNING USING CAUSAL NETWORK FEEDBACK

Abstract:

An embodiment includes identifying, from a training dataset for training a model, a first unlabeled datapoint to present for labelling according to a first query strategy. The embodiment also includes issuing a query requesting a label for the first unlabeled datapoint. The embodiment also includes receiving a labeled datapoint in response to the query, the labeled datapoint comprising the first unlabeled datapoint as labeled by an oracle. The embodiment also includes generating a causal network based on labeled datapoints from the training dataset. The embodiment also includes receiving an instruction to modify the causal network. The embodiment also includes replacing the first query strategy with a second query strategy based on the instruction to modify the causal network. The embodiment also includes identifying, from the training dataset, a second unlabeled datapoint to present for labelling according to the second query strategy.
