Abstract：The classification performance of the classifier based on semi-supervised learning is weakened when the noise samples are introduced. An algorithm called co-training semi-supervised active learning with noise filter is presented to overcome this disadvantage. In this algorithm, three fuzzy buried Markov models are used to perform semi-supervised learning cooperatively. Some human-computer interactions are actively introduced into labelling the unlabeled sample at certain time in order to avoid the rejective judgment when the classifiers do not agree with each other and the inaccurate judgment when the initial weak classifiers all agree. Meanwhile, the noise filter is used to filter the possible noise samples which are labeled automatically by the computer. The proposed algorithm is applied to facial expression recognition. The experimental results show that the algorithm can effectively improve the utilization of unlabeled samples, reduce the introduction of noise samples and raise the accuracy of expression recognition.
