The performance of a model trained with noisy labels is often improved by simply \textit{retraining} the model with its \textit{own predicted hard labels} (i.e., 1/0 labels). Yet, a detailed theoretical characterization of this phenomenon…

Central to human-aligned AI is understanding the benefits of human-elicited labels over synthetic alternatives. While human soft-labels improve calibration by capturing uncertainty, prior studies conflate these benefits with the implicit…
