I will first discuss two methods that we have recently published for batch selection in the context of deep multi-label classification: i) by highlighting hard and imbalanced samples [1], and ii) by measuring uncertainty and modeling dynamic label correlations [2]. I will then share our latest developments on multi-label batch selection that achieves more efficient correlation modeling and leads to stronger predictive performance [3]. Finally, I will present a new method we have developed for extreme multi-label classification based on autoencoders [4].<\/p>\n<p>[1] Zhou, A., Liu, B., Peng, Z., Wang, J., &amp; Tsoumakas, G.
