Extreme multi-label text classification (XMTC) aims at tagging a document with most relevant labels from an extremely large-scale label set. It is a challenging problem especially for the tail labels because there are only few training documents to build classifier. This paper is motivated to better explore the semantic relationship between each document and extreme labels by taking advantage of both document content and label correlation. Our objective is to establish an explicit label-aware representation for each document with a hybrid attention deep neural network model(LAHA). LAHA consists of three parts. The first part adopts a multi-label self-attention mechanism to detect the contribution of each word to labels. The second part exploits the label structure and document content to determine the semantic connection between words and labels in a same latent space. An adaptive fusion strategy is designed in the third part to obtain the final label-aware document representation so that the essence of previous two parts can be sufficiently integrated. Extensive experiments have been conducted on six benchmark datasets by comparing with the state-of-the-art methods. The results show the superiority of our proposed LAHA method, especially on the tail labels.
To solve the fundamental limitation of the aforementioned methods, ignoring the semantic dependency among words, researchers adopted deep learning models in text classification task due to its strong ability of representation. Its main idea is to compress the input word-level representation into a document-level representation, i.e., they encode one document in a latent space @cite_26 by considering the contextual information. The popular deep models include convolutional neural network (CNN) @cite_17 , gated recurrent units (GRU) @cite_5 , recurrent neural network (RNN) @cite_13 , long short-term memory (LSTM) @cite_27 , bidirectional LSTM (Bi-LSTM) @cite_9 , bidirectional encoder representation from transformer (BERT) @cite_22 and several combination networks @cite_23 @cite_29 . Even though they have achieved great success in traditional NLP tasks, few work is designed for XMTC.

This work presents an end-to-end trainable deep bidirectional LSTM (Long-Short Term Memory) model for image captioning. Our model builds on a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) and two separate LSTM networks. It is capable of learning long term visual-language interactions by making use of history and future context information at high level semantic space. Two novel deep bidirectional variant models, in which we increase the depth of nonlinearity transition in different way, are proposed to learn hierarchical visual-language embeddings. Data augmentation techniques such as multi-crop, multi-scale and vertical mirror are proposed to prevent overfitting in training deep models. We visualize the evolution of bidirectional LSTM internal states over time and qualitatively analyze how our models "translate" image to sentence. Our proposed models are evaluated on caption generation and image-sentence retrieval tasks with three benchmark datasets: Flickr8K, Flickr30K and MSCOCO datasets. We demonstrate that bidirectional LSTM models achieve highly competitive performance to the state-of-the-art results on caption generation even without integrating additional mechanism (e.g. object detection, attention model etc.) and significantly outperform recent methods on retrieval task We develop a Deep-Text Recurrent Network (DTRN) that regards scene text reading as a sequence labelling problem. We leverage recent advances of deep convolutional neural networks to generate an ordered high-level sequence from a whole word image, avoiding the difficult character segmentation problem. Then a deep recurrent model, building on long short-term memory (LSTM), is developed to robustly recognize the generated CNN sequences, departing from most existing approaches recognising each character independently. Our model has a number of appealing properties in comparison to existing scene text recognition methods: (i) It can recognise highly ambiguous words by leveraging meaningful context information, allowing it to work reliably without either pre- or post-processing; (ii) the deep CNN feature is robust to various image distortions; (iii) it retains the explicit order information in word image, which is essential to discriminate word strings; (iv) the model does not depend on pre-defined dictionary, and it can process unknown words and arbitrary strings. Codes for the DTRN will be available. We develop a Deep-Text Recurrent Network (DTRN) that regards scene text reading as a sequence labelling problem.

It achieves impressive results on several benchmarks, advancing the-state-of-the-art substantially. Neural network based approaches have recently produced record-setting performances in natural language understanding tasks such as word labeling. In the word labeling task, a tagger is used to assign a label to each word in an input sequence. Specifically, simple recurrent neural networks (RNNs) and convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have shown to significantly outperform the previous state-of-the-art - conditional random fields (CRFs). This paper investigates using long short-term memory (LSTM) neural networks, which contain input, output and forgetting gates and are more advanced than simple RNN, for the word labeling task. To explicitly model output-label dependence, we propose a regression model on top of the LSTM un-normalized scores. We also propose to apply deep LSTM to the task. We investigated the relative importance of each gate in the LSTM by setting other gates to a constant and only learning particular gates. Experiments on the ATIS dataset validated the effectiveness of the proposed models.
