TABLE 3.

The error rates for the 50 posts most likely to be labeled correctly for each of the learning methods

Trial: pos_neg (classifier trained on all 53 labeled posts) pos_all (classifier trained on the 35 “positive” labeled posts and the 4,759 unlabeled posts, treating the unlabeled posts as if they were labeled “negative”) pu_learning (classifier trained on 80% of the 35 “positive” labeled posts, and the 4,759 unlabeled posts, treating the unlabeled posts as if they were labeled “negative”) wmd_1 (classifier using the word mover’s distance to the single closest “positive” post) wmd_5 (classifier using the average of the word mover’s distance to the five closest “positive” posts)
Top-50 error rate: 4% 12% 8% 12% 4%
