Classification is a fundamental task in machine learning. While conventional methods-such as binary, multiclass, and multi-label classification-are effective for simpler problems, they may not adequately address the complexities of some…

Multilabel classification is an important problem in a wide range of domains such as text categorization and music annotation. In this paper, we present a probabilistic model, Multilabel Logistic Regression with Hidden variables (MLRH),…
