Challenge: a novel model for multi-label text classification is proposed for the task of assigning multiple labels for a given text.
Approach: They propose a novel model for multi-label text classification based on sequence-to-sequence learning and a hybrid attention mechanism that extracts both the word-level and the semantic unit.
Outcome: The proposed model is competitive to the baseline models and more robust to classifying low-frequency labels.
