Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Use PU2 wUU instead of PUc under fully disjoint positive supports | aPU learning · MNIST (N: 0,2; Ptest: 5,7; Ptrain: 1,3) | misclassification rate (%): 17.1 -> 3.1 | Helped |
| Use PU2 wUU instead of PUc under fully disjoint positive supports | aPU learning · 20 Newsgroups (N: misc,rec; Ptest: soc,talk; Ptrain: alt,comp) | misclassification rate (%): 18.5 -> 5.6 | Helped |
| Use PU2 wUU instead of PUc under fully disjoint positive supports | aPU learning · CIFAR10 (N: Deer,Horse; Ptest: Plane,Auto; Ptrain: Cat,Dog) | misclassification rate (%): 33.1 -> 11.2 | Helped |
