Over the last decade, significant advances have been achieved by machine learning approaches, notably in supervised learning scenarios. Supported by the advent of deep learning and comprehensive training sets, the accuracy achieved on classification tasks has improved significantly. Simultaneously, we have experienced massive growth in multimedia data and applications, which have become ubiquitous in several domains. However, with the increase in multimedia data collections, significant bottlenecks associated with the lack of labeled data emerged. To surpass this critical issue, developing methods capable of exploiting the unlabeled data and operating under weak supervision has become imperative. This work proposes a rank-based model capable of using contextual information encoded in the unlabeled data to perform weakly supervised classification. We evaluated the proposed weakly …
