Semi-supervised random decision forests for machine learning are described, for example, for interactive image segmentation, medical image analysis, and many other applications. In examples, a random decision forest comprising a plurality of hierarchical data structures is trained using both unlabeled and labeled observations. In examples, a training objective is used which seeks to cluster the observations based on the labels and similarity of the observations. In an example, a transducer assigns labels to the unlabeled observations on the basis of the clusters and certainty information. In an example, an inducer forms a generic clustering function by counting examples of class labels at leaves of the trees in the forest. In an example, an active learning module identifies regions in a feature space from which the observations are drawn using the clusters and certainty information; new observations from the identified regions are used to train the random decision forest. |
