Visual-semantic embedding models have been recently proposed and shown to be effective for image classification and zero-shot learning, by mapping images into a continuous semantic label space. Although several approaches have been proposed for single-label embedding tasks, handling images with multiple labels (which is a more general setting) still remains an open problem, mainly due to the co...

Many modern multiclass and multilabel problems are characterized by increasingly large output spaces. For these problems, label embeddings have been shown to be a useful primitive that can improve computational and statistical efficiency. In this work we utilize a correspondence between rank constrained estimation and low dimensional label embeddings that uncovers a fast label embedding algorit...

‎let $g$ be a graph with vertex set $v(g)$ and edge set $x(g)$ and consider the set $a={0,1}$‎. ‎a mapping $l:v(g)longrightarrow a$ is called binary vertex labeling of $g$ and $l(v)$ is called the label of the vertex $v$ under $l$‎. ‎in this paper we introduce a new kind of graph energy for the binary labeled graph‎, ‎the labeled graph energy $e_{l}(g)$‎. ‎it depends on the underlying graph $g$...

We present a novel and scalable label embedding framework for large-scale multi-label learning a.k.a ExMLDS (Extreme Multi-Label Learning using Distributional Semantics). Our approach draws inspiration from ideas rooted in distributional semantics, specifically the Skip Gram Negative Sampling (SGNS) approach, widely used to learn word embeddings for natural language processing tasks. Learning s...

The standard approach to recognizing text in images consists in first classifying local image regions into candidate characters and then combining them with high-level word models such as conditional random fields (CRF). This paper explores a new paradigm that departs from this bottom-up view. We propose to embed word labels and word images into a common Euclidean space. Given a word image to b...

Multi-label classification has received considerable interest in recent years. Multi-label classifiers have to address many problems including: handling large-scale datasets with many instances and a large set of labels, compensating missing label assignments in the training set, considering correlations between labels, as well as exploiting unlabeled data to improve prediction performance. To ...

Recent years have seen a growing number of graph-based semisupervised learning methods. While the literature currently contains several of these methods, their relationships with one another and with other graph-based data analysis algorithms remain unclear. In this paper, we present a unified view of graph-based semi-supervised learning. Our framework unifies three important and seemingly unre...
