In this paper, researchers investigate how neural networks can be improved using large training datasets. They explore semi-supervised learning (SSL) techniques, which are particularly useful when there’s a limited amount of labeled data and a vast quantity of unlabeled data. The study focuses on comparing SSL algorithms that don’t rely on data augmentation, including self-training, co-training, tri-training, and tri-training with disagreement. To test these methods, the researchers use four different text datasets for various tasks. They analyze the performance of each algorithm from multiple angles and suggest potential improvements.

This study is about making computer programs learn better. Researchers tried to figure out how to make neural networks smarter using lots of data. They found that when they don’t change or modify the data, some methods work better than others on text-based tasks. The team compared different learning techniques and used four types of texts to test them. They looked at how well each method did and gave ideas for making it even better.
