The Generalized Class Discovery (GCD) paper proposes a novel approach to dynamically assigning labels to unlabelled data, leveraging knowledge learned from labelled data. The method aims to address limitations in existing approaches that rely on clustering algorithms. Specifically, the authors introduce an adaptive probing mechanism and self-supervised prototype learning framework to optimize potential prototypes for comprehensive conception learning. The proposed method is shown to deliver state-of-the-art results on a range of datasets, including Stanford Cars and Herbarium 19.

The Generalized Class Discovery (GCD) paper helps us better understand how machines can automatically assign labels to new data. This is useful because sometimes we have lots of data without any labels, making it hard for machines to learn from them. The authors came up with a way to solve this problem by using some existing labelled data as a guide. Their method works by first grouping the unlabelled data into clusters and then learning more about each cluster. They tested their approach on several datasets and found that it performed really well, beating other methods in many cases.
