Awesome-Novel-Class-Discovery

Novel Class Discovery (NCD) is a machine learning problem, where novel categories of instances are to be automatically discovered from an unlabelled pool. In contrast to clustering, NCD setting has access to labelled data from a disjoint set of classes. This topic has plausible real-world applications and is gathering much attention in the research community.

Here, we provide a non-exhaustive list of papers that study NCD.

Some Terms of Problem Setting

  • Novel Class Discovery (NCD, aka Novel Category Discovery)
  • Generalized Category Discovery (GCD, aka Generalized Class Discovery), Open-world Semi-supervised Learning (Open-word SSL)
  • Novel Class Discovery without Forgetting (NCDwF), Class-incremental Novel CLass Discovery (Class-iNCD)
  • Continuous Categories Discovery (CCD)
  • Federated Generalized Category Discovery (Fed-GCD)
  • Active Generalized Category Discovery (Active-GCD)
  • TODO, such as Incremental Generalized Category Discovery (IGCD), Semantic Category Discovery (SCD)
