Learning with noisy labels

Learning with noisy labels means When we say "noisy labels," we mean that an adversary has intentionally messed up the labels, which would have come from a "clean" distribution otherwise. This setting can also be used to cast learning from only positive and unlabeled data.
Description from the archive archive 2025-07-28.
Benchmarks archive 2025-07-28
20 leaderboard tables shown for this task, 20 with rows (a “benchmark” on this site is a table with at least one row, as on /sota), ordered by row count. “Best model” is the first row in the archive's own order at snapshot; nothing is re-ranked here and metric direction is not recorded in the archive. PwC's Trend sparklines are not in the archive, so that column is omitted. 10 shown of 20 until expanded.
Syntology column: samples harvested from the paper's repositories and executed on synthesized fixtures; “ran” is not a correctness claim and does not order the table. A dash means no Syntology record for that paper, not a recorded non-run. Read from the graph 2026-09-24.
