CHEF: A Cheap and Fast Pipeline for Iteratively Cleaning Label Uncertainties
Summary: CHEF cuts label-cleaning costs under weak supervision by prioritizing influential samples and feeding cleaned labels. It adds Increm-INFL and DeltaGrad-L, incremental selection and model updates, plus compact small-batch iteration enabling early stopping. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
