Abstract

The goal of the Active Learning algorithm is to reduce the number of labeled examples needed for learning. In this paper we propose the new AL algorithm based on the analysis of decision profiles. The decision profiles are obtained from the outputs of the base classifiers that form an ensemble of classifiers. The usefulness of the proposed algorithm is experimentally evaluated on several data sets.
