In this paper we study output coding for multi-label prediction. For a multi-label output coding to be discriminative, it is important that codewords for different label vectors are significantly different from each other. In the meantime, unlike in traditional coding theory, codewords in output coding are to be predic…

For many models, computing the likelihood is intractable. These models are therefore hard to train, requiring the use of surrogate objecti…
