Emerging topics in learning from noisy and missing data

While vital for handling most multimedia and computer vision problems, collecting large scale fully annotated datasets is a resource-consuming, often unafiordable task. Indeed, on the one hand datasets need to be large and variate enough so that learning strategies can successfully exploit the variability inherently present in real data, but on the other hand they should be small enough so that they can be fully annotated at a reasonable cost. With the overwhelming success of (deep) learning methods, the traditional problem of balancing between dataset dimensions and resources needed for annotations became a full-edged dilemma. In this context, methodological approaches able to deal with partially described data sets represent a one-of-a-kind opportunity to find the right balance between data variability and resourceconsumption in annotation. These include methods able to deal with noisy, weak or partial annotations. In this tutorial we will present several recent methodologies address...
