Extreme classification tasks are multi-label tasks with an extremely large number of labels (tags). These tasks are hard because the label space is usually (i) very large, e.g. thousands or millions of labels, (ii) very sparse, i.e. very…

Self-training is an effective approach to semi-supervised learning. The key idea is to let the learner itself iteratively generate "pseudo-supervision" for unlabeled instances based on its current hypothesis. In combination with consistency…

\textit{Complementary label learning} (CLL) requires annotators to give \emph{irrelevant} labels instead of relevant labels for instances. Currently, CLL has shown its promising performance on multi-class data by estimating a transition…
