Large Language Models Do Multi-Label Classification Differently (2025.emnlp-main)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Multi-label classification is prevalent in real-world settings, but the behavior of Large Language Models (LLMs) in this setting is understudied.
Approach: They propose to use initial probability distributions to analyze output distributions of LLMs at each label generation step to find out how LLM models perform multi-label classification.
Outcome: The proposed methods improve alignment and predictive performance over existing methods.
Ranking-Based Autoencoder for Extreme Multi-label Classification (N19-1)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing methods to solve label dependency and noisy labeling problems are limited . experimental results show the proposed method is competitive to state-of-the-art methods .
Approach: They propose a deep learning XML method with word-vector-based self-attention followed by ranking-based AutoEncoder architecture to solve these problems.
Outcome: The proposed method is competitive to state-of-the-art methods on benchmark datasets.
SGM: Sequence Generation Model for Multi-label Classification (C18-1)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing methods ignore the correlations between labels and different parts of the text can contribute differently for predicting different labels.
Approach: They propose to view the multi-label classification task as a sequence generation problem and apply a decoder-based sequence generation model to solve it.
Outcome: The proposed methods outperform previous work by a substantial margin.
CCG: Rare-Label Prediction via Neural SEM–Driven Causal Game (2025.findings-emnlp)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Multi-label classification (MLC) faces persistent challenges from label imbalance, spurious correlations, distribution shifts, especially in rare label prediction.
Approach: They propose a Causal Cooperative Game framework that models multi-player cooperative process for multi-label classification.
Outcome: The proposed framework improves rare label prediction and overall robustness compared to baselines.
A Deep Reinforced Sequence-to-Set Model for Multi-Label Classification (P19-1)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Multi-label classification (MLC) aims to assign multiple labels to each sample.
Approach: They propose a sequence-to-set model that is trained via reinforcement learning and rewards feedback independent of the label order.
Outcome: The proposed model outperforms baseline models and reduces sensitivity to label order.
