Correlation concept-cognitive learning model for multi-label classification

Abstract

As a cognitive process, concept-cognitive learning (CCL) emphasizes the structured expression of data through systematic cognition and understanding, to obtain valuable information in the data. Although concept-cognitive learning has achieved good results in single-label classification tasks, it has not yet been applied to multi-label learning. The difficulty is that the existing concept-cognitive learning fails to effectively associate and utilize the structural relationships in the feature concepts and the multi-label concepts. In addition, in the face of complex multi-label datasets, it is difficult to obtain effective concepts for classification tasks. To solve these problems, this paper proposes a correlation concept-cognitive learning method and applies it to the multi-label classification (MLC) task. Moreover, the relationship between the feature concepts and the multi-label concepts is established by extent. On this basis, we comprehensively consider the extent relevancy and intent relevancy, and learn correlation concepts. In order to improve the classification precision, we construct correlation concept spaces to obtain the representation of effective concepts. Finally, we conducted experimental evaluations on ten datasets to illustrate the effectivity and advantages of the proposed approach.
