Abstract：To address the problem of learning from incomplete weakly labeled data, a semi-supervised co-training model based on rough set theory is proposed. A semi-supervised discernibility matrix is firstly defined and then used to generate two sufficient and diverse semi-supervised reducts. The base classifiers are trained on the labeled data with two reducts, and then the two classifiers are learned from each other on the unlabeled data by labeling the confident unlabeled examples to its concomitant until no eligible unlabeled example is available. Experimental results on selected UCI datasets show that the proposed model achieves better performance on incomplete weakly labeled data compared with other models, and the effectiveness of the proposed model is verified.
