Classifier chains as mentioned in this paper is a popular approach to multi-label learning problems, which involves linking together off-the-shelf binary classifiers in a chain structure, such that class label predictions become features for other classifiers.Abstract:
The family of methods collectively known as classifier chains has become a popular approach to multi-label learning problems. This approach involves linking together off-the-shelf binary classifiers in a chain structure, such that class label predictions become features for other classifiers. Such methods have proved flexible and effective and have obtained state-of-the-art empirical performance across many datasets and multi-label evaluation metrics. This performance led to further studies of how exactly it works, and how it could be improved, and in the recent decade numerous studies have explored classifier chains mechanisms on a theoretical level, and many improvements have been made to the training and inference procedures, such that this method remains among the state-of-the-art options for multi-label learning. Given this past and ongoing interest, which covers a broad range of applications and research themes, the goal of this work is to provide a review of classifier chains, a survey of the techniques and extensions provided in the literature, as well as perspectives for this approach in the domain of multi-label classification in the future. We conclude positively, with a number of recommendations for researchers and practitioners, as well as outlining a number of areas for future research.read more

Deep tree-ensembles for multi-output prediction
TL;DR: A novel deep tree-ensemble (DTE) model, where every layer enriches the original feature set with a representation learning component based on tree-embeddings is proposed, which provides superior results to state-of-the-art methods in both structured output prediction tasks.

Prediction of pipe failures in water supply networks for longer time periods through multi-label classification
TL;DR: In this article , the use of multi-label classification techniques is proposed to simultaneously predict pipe failures in water supply systems for multiple years, and three models (discriminant analysis, logistic regression and random forest) and different prediction time periods (one, two and three years) have been analyzed.
