Supervised machine learning often requires large training sets to train accurate models, yet obtaining large amounts of labeled data is not always feasible. Hence, it becomes crucial to explore active learning methods for reducing the size of training sets while maintaining high accuracy. The aim is to select the optimal subset of data for labeling from an initial unlabeled set, ensuring precise prediction of outcomes. However, conventional active learning approaches are comparable to classical random sampling. This paper proposes a wrapper active learning method for classification, organizing the sampling process into a tree structure, that improves state-of-the-art algorithms. A classification tree constructed on an initial set of labeled samples is considered to decompose the space into low-entropy regions. Input-space based criteria are used thereafter to sub-sample from these regions, the total number of points to be labeled being decomposed into each region. This adaptation proves to be a significant enhancement over existing active learning methods. Through experiments conducted on various benchmark data sets, the paper demonstrates the efficacy of the proposed framework by being effective in constructing accurate classification models, even when provided with a severely restricted labeled data set.
