Abstract

In recent years, deep convolutional neural network (CNN) has demonstrated its great power in image classification. In real world, there are many images contain abundant contents so that they have multiple labels. Moreover, there are correlations between labels. Traditional deep methods for such data rarely take into account such correlations. In this paper, we propose a dual-CNN model, i.e., Dual-CNN model for Multi-Label classification (Dual-CNN-ML), which can make full use of the dependencies of labels to enhance classification performance. Specifically, we first obtain co-occurrence dependency matrix from training datasets; then, we merge the co-occurrence dependency matrix and image representation together; finally, we use the new representation to predict labels of samples. Extensive experiments on public benchmark datasets demonstrate that the proposed method obtains satisfying results and outperforms several state-of-the-art methods.
