Deep Learning with Humans-In-The-Loop: Active Learning for NLP

With Lukas Rauch

๐Ÿ—“๏ธ July 4th, 2024

๐Ÿ•˜ 9:00 AM – 4:00 PM

๐Ÿ“ University of Kassel

Overview:

The abundance of text data and the emergence of powerful deep learning models have rapidly advanced Natural Language Processing (NLP). However, tailoring models to specific tasks still demands human-annotated data, which can be time-consuming. Active Learning strategically involves humans in the learning loop, selecting instances for annotation to maximize performance gains. This approach optimizes human effort and enhances the modelโ€™s adaptability, making training more efficient.

What to Expect:

In this full-day workshop, participants will delve into the fundamentals of Human-In-The-Loop Learning and (Deep) Active Learning. Through hands-on exercises, attendees will learn to design a (Deep) Active Learning Cycle using Python.

Requirements:

  • Basic proficiency in Python
  • Fundamental knowledge of Machine Learning/Deep Learning
  • Bring your own laptop to fully engage in the workshop activities

About the Instructor:

Lukas Rauch is a researcher within the AI for Computationally Intelligent Systems (AI4CIS) team at the University of Kassel, Germany. His expertise spans (Deep) Active Learning and Optimization.
