Active learning Support vector machine/Evidence
Method evidence record

Active learning Support vector machine

Active learning SVM combines the strong decision-boundary of support vector machines with an intelligent query strategy that selects the most informative unlabeled instances for human annotation. Introduced by Tong and Koller in 2001, it achieves high classification accuracy using far fewer labeled examples than passive supervised learning, making it practical whenever labeling is expensive or slow.
