Abstract (excerpt)
Data quality is a critical factor in the effectiveness of machine learning models. Label errors, present even in widely used benchmarks, introduce noise into training data and reduce model generalization. In this work, we conduct a comparative analysis of two automatic label error detection methods - Confident Learning and Dataset Cartography - on three Russian text classification corpora of varying size, number of classes, and domain: ru_emotion_e-culture (49,123 examples, emotion classification), RuCoLA (8,524 examples, linguistic acceptability), and TERRa (2,337 examples, textual entailment
