We consider a problem of risk estimation for large-margin multi-class classifiers. We propose a novel risk bound for the multi-class classification problem. The bound involves the marginal distribution of the classifier and the Rademacher complexity of the hypothesis class. We prove that our bound is tight in the numbe…

Under the assumptions that the classes are sampled identically and independently from a population, a…

The difficulty of multi-class classification generally increases with the number of classes. Using data from a subset of the classes, can we predict how well a classifier will scale with an increased number of classes? Under the assumption that the classes are sampled exchangeably, and under the assumption that the cla…
Class-imbalance refers to classification problems in which many more instances are available for certain classes than for others. Such imbalanced datasets require special attention because traditional classifiers generally favor the majority class which has a large number of instances. Ensemble of classifiers have been…

Two different formulas for macro F1 lead to significant differences in classification evaluation.
In this paper we propose an algorithm that builds sparse decision DAGs (directed acyclic graphs) from a list of base classifiers provided by an external learning method such as AdaBoost. The basic idea is to cast the DAG design task as a Markov decision process. Each instance can decide to use or to skip each base clas…
We show that the multi-class support vector machine (MSVM) proposed by Lee et. al. (2004), can be viewed as a MAP estimation procedure under an appropriate probabilistic interpretation of the classifier. We also show that this interpretation can be extended to a hierarchical Bayesian architecture and to a fully-Bayesia…

Multi-class classification with a very large number of classes, or extreme classification, is a challenging problem from both statistical and computational perspectives. Most of the classical approaches to multi-class classification, including one-vs-rest or multi-class support vector machines, require the exact estima…
