Hyperbolic Interaction Model For Hierarchical Multi-Label Classification
Different from the traditional classification tasks which assume mutual
exclusion of labels, hierarchical multi-label classification (HMLC) aims to
assign multiple labels to every instance with the labels organized under
hierarchical relations. Besides the labels, since linguistic ontologies are
intrinsic hierarchies, the conceptual relations between words can also form
hierarchical structures. Thus it can be a challenge to learn mappings from word
hierarchies to label hierarchies. We propose to model the word and label
hierarchies by embedding them jointly in the hyperbolic space. The main reason
is that the tree-likeness of the hyperbolic space matches the complexity of
symbolic data with hierarchical structures. A new Hyperbolic Interaction Model
(HyperIM) is designed to learn the label-aware document representations and
make predictions for HMLC. Extensive experiments are conducted on three
benchmark datasets. The results have demonstrated that the new model can
realistically capture the complex data structures and further improve the
performance for HMLC comparing with the state-of-the-art methods. To facilitate
future research, our code is publicly available
Substructure and Boundary Modeling for Continuous Action Recognition
This paper introduces a probabilistic graphical model for continuous action
recognition with two novel components: substructure transition model and
discriminative boundary model. The first component encodes the sparse and
global temporal transition prior between action primitives in state-space model
to handle the large spatial-temporal variations within an action class. The
second component enforces the action duration constraint in a discriminative
way to locate the transition boundaries between actions more accurately. The
two components are integrated into a unified graphical structure to enable
effective training and inference. Our comprehensive experimental results on
both public and in-house datasets show that, with the capability to incorporate
additional information that had not been explicitly or efficiently modeled by
previous methods, our proposed algorithm achieved significantly improved
performance for continuous action recognition.Comment: Detailed version of the CVPR 2012 paper. 15 pages, 6 figure
