• Abstract: Exploiting label hierarchies has become a promising approach to tackling the zero-shot multi-label text classification (ZS-MTC) problem. Conventional methods aim to learn a matching model between text and labels, using a graph encoder to incorporate label hierarchies to obtain effective label representations \cite{rios2018few}. More recently, pretrained models like BERT \cite{devlin2018bert} have been used to convert classification tasks into a textual entailment task \cite{yin-etal-2019-benchmarking}. This approach is naturally suitable for the ZS-MTC task. However, pretrained models are underexplored in the existing work because they do not generate individual vector representations for text or labels, making it unintuitive to combine them with conventional graph encoding methods. In this paper, we explore to improve pretrained models with label hierarchies on the ZS-MTC task. We propose a Reinforced Label Hierarchy Reasoning (RLHR) approach to encourage interdependence among labels in the hierarchies during training. Meanwhile, to overcome the weakness of flat predictions, we design a rollback algorithm that can remove logical errors from predictions during inference. Experimental results on three real-life datasets show that our approach achieves better performance and outperforms previous non-pretrained methods on the ZS-MTC task.

  Multi-label recognition (MLR) with incomplete labels is very challenging. Recent works strive to explore the image-to-label correspondence in the vision-language model, ie, CLIP, to compensate for insufficient annotations. We advocate remedying the deficiency of label supervision for the MLR with incomplete labels by deriving a structured semantic prior.

  Few-shot classification aims to learn a model that can generalize well to new tasks when only a few labeled samples are available. We propose a semi-supervised few-shot classification method that assigns an appropriate label to each unlabeled sample by a manually defined metric. A major novelty of SALA is the task-adaptive metric, which can learn the metric adaptively for different tasks in an end-to-end fashion.
