Abstract(in English) In classifier design, labeled data are often fairly expensive to acquire beacase the class labels are identified by human experts. Semi-supervised learning provides methods for effectively using a large amount of unlabeled data with a small amount of labeled data when trainig a classifier. Semi-supervised learning cosists of parametric approch based on probabilistic model and non-parametric approach in which spectral method is used based on data similarities. This report gives a review on theory and algorithm of both approaches. In particular, for non-parametric approach. the importance of metric learning is shown and a method that simultaneously performs posterior propagation and metric learning is newly presented with preliminary result using artificial data.
