We investigate a committee-based approach for active learning of real-valued functions. This is a variance-only strategy for selection of informative training data. As such it is shown to suffer when the model class is misspecified since the learner’s bias is high. Conversely, the strategy outperforms passive selection when the model class is very expressive since active minimization of the variance avoids overfitting.
