• Abstract: Federated learning aims to share private data to maximize the data utility without privacy leakage. Previous federated learning research mainly focuses on multi-class classification problems. However, multi-label classification is a crucial research problem close to real-world data properties. Nevertheless, a limited number of federated learning studies explore this research problem. Existing studies of multi-label federated learning did not consider the characteristics of multi-label data, i.e., they used the concept of multi-class classification to verify their methods' performance, which means it will not be feasible to apply their methods to real-world applications. Therefore, this study proposed a new multi-label federated learning framework with a Clustering-based Multi-label Data Allocation (CMDA) and a novel aggregation method, Fast Label-Adaptive Aggregation (FLAG), for multi-label classification in the federated learning environment. The experimental results demonstrate that our methods only need less than 50\% of training epochs and communication rounds to surpass the performance of state-of-the-art federated learning methods.

  Semi-supervised text classification (SSTC) has gained increasing attention due to its ability to leverage unlabeled data. Existing approaches based on pseudo-labeling suffer from the issues of pseudo-label bias and error accumulation. We propose JointMatch, a holistic approach for SSTC that addresses these challenges by unifying ideas from recent semi-supervised learning.

  We propose a novel multi-label knowledge distillation method. On one hand, it exploits the informative semantic knowledge from the logits by dividing the multi-label learning problem into a set of binary classification problems. On the other hand, it enhances the distinctiveness of the learned feature representations by leveraging the structural information of label-wise embeddings.

  In this paper, we propose an incomplete multi-view partial multi-label classification network named RANK. We break through the view-level weights inherent in existing methods and propose a quality-aware sub-network to dynamically assign quality scores to each view of each sample. Our model is not only able to handle complete multi-view multi-label datasets, but also works on datasets with missing instances and labels.

We propose that a suitable dark knowledge should incorporate class-wise information and be highly correlated with the final classification results.

Also, we propose a novel active learning query strategy, which uses diversity-based sampling on consistency-based embeddings.

  Learning from fully-unlabeled data is challenging in Multimedia Forensics problems, such as Person Re-Identification and Text Authorship Attribution. Recent self-supervised learning methods have shown to be effective when dealing with fully-unlabeled data in cases where the underlying classes have significant semantic differences. We propose a strategy to tackle Person Re-Identification and Text Authorship Attribution by enabling learning from unlabeled data even when samples from different classes are not prominently diverse.
