Description: Implementing a large-scale multi-label text classification model.
Introduction
In this example, we will build a multi-label text classifier to predict the subject areas of arXiv papers from their abstract bodies. This type of classifier can be useful for conference submission portals like OpenReview. Given a paper abstract, the portal could provide suggestions for which areas the paper would best belong to.
The dataset was collected using the
arXiv Python library
that provides a wrapper around the
original arXiv API.
To learn more about the data collection process, please refer to
this notebook.
Additionally, you can also find the dataset on
Kaggle.
Imports
from tensorflow.keras import layers
from tensorflow import keras
import tensorflow as tf
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
from ast import literal_eval
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
Perform exploratory data analysis
In this section, we first load the dataset into a pandas dataframe and then perform
some basic exploratory data analysis (EDA).
arxiv_data = pd.read_csv(
"https://github.com/soumik12345/multi-label-text-classification/releases/download/v0.2/arxiv_data.csv"
)
arxiv_data.head()

Our text features are present in the summaries column and their corresponding labels
are in terms. As you can notice, there are multiple categories associated with a
particular entry.
print(f"There are {len(arxiv_data)} rows in the dataset.")
There are 51774 rows in the dataset.
Real-world data is noisy. One of the most commonly observed source of noise is data duplication. Here we notice that our initial dataset has got about 13k duplicate entries.
total_duplicate_titles = sum(arxiv_data["titles"].duplicated())
print(f"There are {total_duplicate_titles} duplicate titles.")
There are 12802 duplicate titles.
Before proceeding further, we drop these entries.
arxiv_data = arxiv_data[~arxiv_data["titles"].duplicated()]
print(f"There are {len(arxiv_data)} rows in the deduplicated dataset.")
# There are some terms with occurrence as low as 1.
print(sum(arxiv_data["terms"].value_counts() == 1))
# How many unique terms?
print(arxiv_data["terms"].nunique())
There are 38972 rows in the deduplicated dataset.
2321
3157
As observed above, out of 3,157 unique combinations of terms, 2,321 entries have the
lowest occurrence. To prepare our train, validation, and test sets with
stratification, we need to drop
these terms.
# Filtering the rare terms.
arxiv_data_filtered = arxiv_data.groupby("terms").filter(lambda x: len(x) > 1)
arxiv_data_filtered.shape
(36651, 3)
Convert the string labels to lists of strings
The initial labels are represented as raw strings. Here we make them List[str] for a
more compact representation.
arxiv_data_filtered["terms"] = arxiv_data_filtered["terms"].apply(
lambda x: literal_eval(x)
)
arxiv_data_filtered["terms"].values[:5]
array([list(['cs.CV', 'cs.LG']), list(['cs.CV', 'cs.AI', 'cs.LG']),
list(['cs.CV', 'cs.AI']), list(['cs.CV']),
list(['cs.CV', 'cs.LG'])], dtype=object)
Use stratified splits because of class imbalance
The dataset has a class imbalance problem. So, to have a fair evaluation result, we need to ensure the datasets are sampled with stratification. To know more about different strategies to deal with the class imbalance problem, you can follow this tutorial. For an end-to-end demonstration of classification with imbablanced data, refer to Imbalanced classification: credit card fraud detection.
test_split = 0.1
# Initial train and test split.
train_df, test_df = train_test_split(
arxiv_data_filtered,
test_size=test_split,
stratify=arxiv_data_filtered["terms"].values,
)
# Splitting the test set further into validation
# and new test sets.
val_df = test_df.sample(frac=0.5)
test_df.drop(val_df.index, inplace=True)
print(f"Number of rows in training set: {len(train_df)}")
print(f"Number of rows in validation set: {len(val_df)}")
print(f"Number of rows in test set: {len(test_df)}")
Number of rows in training set: 32985
Number of rows in validation set: 1833
Number of rows in test set: 1833
Multi-label binarization
Now we preprocess our labels using the
StringLookup
layer.
terms = tf.ragged.constant(train_df["terms"].values)
lookup = tf.keras.layers.StringLookup(output_mode="multi_hot")
lookup.adapt(terms)
vocab = lookup.get_vocabulary()
def invert_multi_hot(encoded_labels):
"""Reverse a single multi-hot encoded label to a tuple of vocab terms."""
hot_indices = np.argwhere(encoded_labels == 1.0)[..., 0]
return np.take(vocab, hot_indices)
print("Vocabulary:\n")
print(vocab)
Vocabulary:
['[UNK]', 'cs.CV', 'cs.LG', 'stat.ML', 'cs.AI', 'eess.IV', 'cs.RO', 'cs.CL', 'cs.NE', 'cs.CR', 'math.OC', 'eess.SP', 'cs.GR', 'cs.SI', 'cs.MM', 'cs.SY', 'cs.IR', 'cs.MA', 'eess.SY', 'cs.HC', 'math.IT', 'cs.IT', 'cs.DC', 'cs.CY', 'stat.AP', 'stat.TH', 'math.ST', 'stat.ME', 'eess.AS', 'cs.SD', 'q-bio.QM', 'q-bio.NC', 'cs.DS', 'cs.GT', 'cs.CG', 'cs.SE', 'cs.NI', 'I.2.6', 'stat.CO', 'math.NA', 'cs.NA', 'physics.chem-ph', 'cs.DB', 'q-bio.BM', 'cs.PL', 'cs.LO', 'cond-mat.dis-nn', '68T45', 'math.PR', 'physics.comp-ph', 'I.2.10', 'cs.CE', 'cs.AR', 'q-fin.ST', 'cond-mat.stat-mech', '68T05', 'quant-ph', 'math.DS', 'physics.data-an', 'cs.CC', 'I.4.6', 'physics.soc-ph', 'physics.ao-ph', 'cs.DM', 'econ.EM', 'q-bio.GN', 'physics.med-ph', 'astro-ph.IM', 'I.4.8', 'math.AT', 'cs.PF', 'cs.FL', 'I.4', 'q-fin.TR', 'I.5.4', 'I.2', '68U10', 'hep-ex', 'cond-mat.mtrl-sci', '68T10', 'physics.optics', 'physics.geo-ph', 'physics.flu-dyn', 'math.CO', 'math.AP', 'I.4; I.5', 'I.4.9', 'I.2.6; I.2.8', '68T01', '65D19', 'q-fin.CP', 'nlin.CD', 'cs.MS', 'I.2.6; I.5.1', 'I.2.10; I.4; I.5', 'I.2.0; I.2.6', '68T07', 'q-fin.GN', 'cs.SC', 'cs.ET', 'K.3.2', 'I.2.8', '68U01', '68T30', 'q-fin.EC', 'q-bio.MN', 'econ.GN', 'I.4.9; I.5.4', 'I.4.5', 'I.2; I.5', 'I.2; I.4; I.5', 'I.2.6; I.2.7', 'I.2.10; I.4.8', '68T99', '68Q32', '68', '62H30', 'q-fin.RM', 'q-fin.PM', 'q-bio.TO', 'q-bio.OT', 'physics.bio-ph', 'nlin.AO', 'math.LO', 'math.FA', 'hep-ph', 'cond-mat.soft', 'I.4.6; I.4.8', 'I.4.4', 'I.4.3', 'I.4.0', 'I.2; J.2', 'I.2; I.2.6; I.2.7', 'I.2.7', 'I.2.6; I.5.4', 'I.2.6; I.2.9', 'I.2.6; I.2.7; H.3.1; H.3.3', 'I.2.6; I.2.10', 'I.2.6, I.5.4', 'I.2.1; J.3', 'I.2.10; I.5.1; I.4.8', 'I.2.10; I.4.8; I.5.4', 'I.2.10; I.2.6', 'I.2.1', 'H.3.1; I.2.6; I.2.7', 'H.3.1; H.3.3; I.2.6; I.2.7', 'G.3', 'F.2.2; I.2.7', 'E.5; E.4; E.2; H.1.1; F.1.1; F.1.3', '68Txx', '62H99', '62H35', '14J60 (Primary) 14F05, 14J26 (Secondary)']
Here we are separating the individual unique classes available from the label pool and then using this information to represent a given label set with 0's and 1's. Below is an example.
sample_label = train_df["terms"].iloc[0]
print(f"Original label: {sample_label}")
label_binarized = lookup([sample_label])
print(f"Label-binarized representation: {label_binarized}")
Original label: ['cs.LG', 'cs.CV', 'eess.IV']
Label-binarized representation: [[0. 1. 1. 0. 0. 1. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0.

Data preprocessing and tf.data.Dataset objects
We first get percentile estimates of the sequence lengths. The purpose will be clear in a moment.
train_df["summaries"].apply(lambda x: len(x.split(" "))).describe()
count 32985.000000
mean 156.497105
std 41.528225
min 5.000000
25% 128.000000
50% 154.000000
75% 183.000000
max 462.000000
Name: summaries, dtype: float64
Notice that 50% of the abstracts have a length of 154 (you may get a different number based on the split). So, any number close to that value is a good enough approximate for the maximum sequence length.
Now, we implement utilities to prepare our datasets.
max_seqlen = 150
batch_size = 128
padding_token = "<pad>"
auto = tf.data.AUTOTUNE
def make_dataset(dataframe, is_train=True):
labels = tf.ragged.constant(dataframe["terms"].values)
label_binarized = lookup(labels).numpy()
dataset = tf.data.Dataset.from_tensor_slices(
(dataframe["summaries"].values, label_binarized)
)
dataset = dataset.shuffle(batch_size * 10) if is_train else dataset
return dataset.batch(batch_size)
Now we can prepare the tf.data.Dataset objects.
train_dataset = make_dataset(train_df, is_train=True)
validation_dataset = make_dataset(val_df, is_train=False)
test_dataset = make_dataset(test_df, is_train=False)
Dataset preview
text_batch, label_batch = next(iter(train_dataset))
for i, text in enumerate(text_batch[:5]):
label = label_batch[i].numpy()[None, ...]

Abstract: b"In this paper we show how using satellite images can improve the accuracy of\nhousing price estimation models. Using Los Angeles County's property assessment\ndataset, by transferring learning from an Inception-v3 model pretrained on\nImageNet, we could achieve an improvement of ~10% in R-squared score compared\nto two baseline models that only use non-image features of the house."

Abstract: b'Learning from data streams is an increasingly important topic in data mining,\nmachine learning, and artificial intelligence in general. A major focus in the\ndata stream literature is on designing methods that can deal with concept\ndrift, a challenge where the generating distribution changes over time. A\ngeneral assumption in most of this literature is that instances are\nindependently distributed in the stream. In this work we show that, in the\ncontext of concept drift, this assumption is contradictory, and that the\npresence of concept drift necessarily implies temporal dependence; and thus\nsome form of time series. This has important implications on model design and\ndeployment. We explore and highlight the these implications, and show that\nHoeffding-tree based ensembles, which are very popular for learning in streams,\nare not naturally suited to learning \\emph{within} drift; and can perform in\nthis scenario only at significant computational cost of destructive adaptation.\nOn the other hand, we develop and parameterize gradient-descent methods and\ndemonstrate how they can perform \\emph{continuous} adaptation with no explicit\ndrift-detection mechanism, offering major advantages in terms of accuracy and\nefficiency. As a consequence of our theoretical discussion and empirical\nobservations, we outline a number of recommendations for deploying methods in\nconcept-drifting streams.'

Abstract: b"As reinforcement learning (RL) achieves more success in solving complex\ntasks, more care is needed to ensure that RL research is reproducible and that\nalgorithms herein can be compared easily and fairly with minimal bias. RL\nresults are, however, notoriously hard to reproduce due to the algorithms'\nintrinsic variance, the environments' stochasticity, and numerous (potentially\nunreported) hyper-parameters. In this work we investigate the many issues\nleading to irreproducible research and how to manage those. We further show how\nto utilise a rigorous and standardised evaluation approach for easing the\nprocess of documentation, evaluation and fair comparison of different\nalgorithms, where we emphasise the importance of choosing the right measurement\nmetrics and conducting proper statistics on the results, for unbiased reporting\nof the results."

Abstract: b'Estimating dense correspondences between images is a long-standing image\nunder-standing task. Recent works introduce convolutional neural networks\n(CNNs) to extract high-level feature maps and find correspondences through\nfeature matching. However,high-level feature maps are in low spatial resolution\nand therefore insufficient to provide accurate and fine-grained features to\ndistinguish intra-class variations for correspondence matching. To address this\nproblem, we generate robust features by dynamically selecting features at\ndifferent scales. To resolve two critical issues in feature selection,i.e.,how\nmany and which scales of features to be selected, we frame the feature\nselection process as a sequential Markov decision-making process (MDP) and\nintroduce an optimal selection strategy using reinforcement learning (RL). We\ndefine an RL environment for image matching in which each individual action\neither requires new features or terminates the selection episode by referring a\nmatching score. Deep neural networks are incorporated into our method and\ntrained for decision making. Experimental results show that our method achieves\ncomparable/superior performance with state-of-the-art methods on three\nbenchmarks, demonstrating the effectiveness of our feature selection strategy.'

Abstract: b'Dense reconstructions often contain errors that prior work has so far\nminimised using high quality sensors and regularising the output. Nevertheless,\nerrors still persist. This paper proposes a machine learning technique to\nidentify errors in three dimensional (3D) meshes. Beyond simply identifying\nerrors, our method quantifies both the magnitude and the direction of depth\nestimate errors when viewing the scene. This enables us to improve the\nreconstruction accuracy.\n We train a suitably deep network architecture with two 3D meshes: a\nhigh-quality laser reconstruction, and a lower quality stereo image\nreconstruction. The network predicts the amount of error in the lower quality\nreconstruction with respect to the high-quality one, having only view the\nformer through its input. We evaluate our approach by correcting\ntwo-dimensional (2D) inverse-depth images extracted from the 3D model, and show\nthat our method improves the quality of these depth reconstructions by up to a\nrelative 10% RMSE.'

Vectorization
Before we feed the data to our model, we need to vectorize it (represent it in a numerical form).
For that purpose, we will use the
TextVectorization layer.
It can operate as a part of your main model so that the model is excluded from the core
preprocessing logic. This greatly reduces the chances of training / serving skew during inference.
We first calculate the number of unique words present in the abstracts.
# Source: https://stackoverflow.com/a/18937309/7636462
vocabulary = set()
train_df["summaries"].str.lower().str.split().apply(vocabulary.update)
vocabulary_size = len(vocabulary)
print(vocabulary_size)
153338
We now create our vectorization layer and map() to the tf.data.Datasets created
earlier.
text_vectorizer = layers.TextVectorization(
max_tokens=vocabulary_size, ngrams=2, output_mode="tf_idf"
)
# `TextVectorization` layer needs to be adapted as per the vocabulary from our
# training set.
with tf.device("/CPU:0"):
text_vectorizer.adapt(train_dataset.map(lambda text, label: text))
train_dataset = train_dataset.map(
lambda text, label: (text_vectorizer(text), label), num_parallel_calls=auto
).prefetch(auto)
validation_dataset = validation_dataset.map(
lambda text, label: (text_vectorizer(text), label), num_parallel_calls=auto
).prefetch(auto)
test_dataset = test_dataset.map(
lambda text, label: (text_vectorizer(text), label), num_parallel_calls=auto
).prefetch(auto)
A batch of raw text will first go through the TextVectorization layer and it will
generate their integer representations. Internally, the TextVectorization layer will
first create bi-grams out of the sequences and then represent them using
TF-IDF. The output representations will then
be passed to the shallow model responsible for text classification.
To learn more about other possible configurations with TextVectorizer, please consult
the
official documentation.
Note: Setting the max_tokens argument to a pre-calculated vocabulary size is
not a requirement.
Create a text classification model
We will keep our model simple – it will be a small stack of fully-connected layers with ReLU as the non-linearity.
def make_model():
shallow_mlp_model = keras.Sequential(
[
layers.Dense(512, activation="relu"),
layers.Dense(256, activation="relu"),
layers.Dense(lookup.vocabulary_size(), activation="sigmoid"),
] # More on why "sigmoid" has been used here in a moment.
)
return shallow_mlp_model
Train the model
We will train our model using the binary crossentropy loss. This is because the labels are not disjoint. For a given abstract, we may have multiple categories. So, we will divide the prediction task into a series of multiple binary classification problems. This is also why we kept the activation function of the classification layer in our model to sigmoid. Researchers have used other combinations of loss function and activation function as well. For example, in Exploring the Limits of Weakly Supervised Pretraining, Mahajan et al. used the softmax activation function and cross-entropy loss to train their models.
There are several options of metrics that can be used in multi-label classification. To keep this code example narrow we decided to use the binary accuracy metric. To see the explanation why this metric is used we refer to this pull-request. There are also other suitable metrics for multi-label classification, like F1 Score or Hamming loss.

The trained model gives us an evaluation accuracy of ~99%.
Inference
An important feature of the
preprocessing layers provided by Keras
is that they can be included inside a tf.keras.Model. We will export an inference model
by including the text_vectorization layer on top of shallow_mlp_model. This will
allow our inference model to directly operate on raw strings.
Note that during training it is always preferable to use these preprocessing layers as a part of the data input pipeline rather than the model to avoid surfacing bottlenecks for the hardware accelerators. This also allows for asynchronous data processing.

Abstract: b'We investigate the training of sparse layers that use different parameters\nfor different inputs based on hashing in large Transformer models.\nSpecifically, we modify the feedforward layer to hash to different sets of\nweights depending on the current token, over all tokens in the sequence. We\nshow that this procedure either outperforms or is competitive with\nlearning-to-route mixture-of-expert methods such as Switch Transformers and\nBASE Layers, while requiring no routing parameters or extra terms in the\nobjective function such as a load balancing loss, and no sophisticated\nassignment algorithm. We study the performance of different hashing techniques,\nhash sizes and input features, and show that balanced and random hashes focused\non the most local features work best, compared to either learning clusters or\nusing longer-range context. We show our approach works well both on large\nlanguage modeling and dialogue tasks, and on downstream fine-tuning tasks.'

Abstract: b'We present the first method capable of photorealistically reconstructing\ndeformable scenes using photos/videos captured casually from mobile phones. Our\napproach augments neural radiance fields (NeRF) by optimizing an additional\ncontinuous volumetric deformation field that warps each observed point into a\ncanonical 5D NeRF. We observe that these NeRF-like deformation fields are prone\nto local minima, and propose a coarse-to-fine optimization method for\ncoordinate-based models that allows for more robust optimization. By adapting\nprinciples from geometry processing and physical simulation to NeRF-like\nmodels, we propose an elastic regularization of the deformation field that\nfurther improves robustness. We show that our method can turn casually captured\nselfie photos/videos into deformable NeRF models that allow for photorealistic\nrenderings of the subject from arbitrary viewpoints, which we dub "nerfies." We\nevaluate our method by collecting time-synchronized data using a rig with two\nmobile phones, yielding train/validation images of the same pose at different\nviewpoints. We show that our method faithfully reconstructs non-rigidly\ndeforming scenes and reproduces unseen views with high fidelity.'

Abstract: b'We propose to jointly learn multi-view geometry and warping between views of\nthe same object instances for robust cross-view object detection. What makes\nmulti-view object instance detection difficult are strong changes in viewpoint,\nlighting conditions, high similarity of neighbouring objects, and strong\nvariability in scale. By turning object detection and instance\nre-identification in different views into a joint learning task, we are able to\nincorporate both image appearance and geometric soft constraints into a single,\nmulti-view detection process that is learnable end-to-end. We validate our\nmethod on a new, large data set of street-level panoramas of urban objects and\nshow superior performance compared to various baselines. Our contribution is\nthreefold: a large-scale, publicly available data set for multi-view instance\ndetection and re-identification; an annotation tool custom-tailored for\nmulti-view instance detection; and a novel, holistic multi-view instance\ndetection and re-identification method that jointly models geometry and\nappearance across views.'

Abstract: b'Learning graph convolutional networks (GCNs) is an emerging field which aims\nat generalizing deep learning to arbitrary non-regular domains. Most of the\nexisting GCNs follow a neighborhood aggregation scheme, where the\nrepresentation of a node is recursively obtained by aggregating its neighboring\nnode representations using averaging or sorting operations. However, these\noperations are either ill-posed or weak to be discriminant or increase the\nnumber of training parameters and thereby the computational complexity and the\nrisk of overfitting. In this paper, we introduce a novel GCN framework that\nachieves spatial graph convolution in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space\n(RKHS). The latter makes it possible to design, via implicit kernel\nrepresentations, convolutional graph filters in a high dimensional and more\ndiscriminating space without increasing the number of training parameters. The\nparticularity of our GCN model also resides in its ability to achieve\nconvolutions without explicitly realigning nodes in the receptive fields of the\nlearned graph filters with those of the input graphs, thereby making\nconvolutions permutation agnostic and well defined. Experiments conducted on\nthe challenging task of skeleton-based action recognition show the superiority\nof the proposed method against different baselines as well as the related work.'

Abstract: b'Recurrent meta reinforcement learning (meta-RL) agents are agents that employ\na recurrent neural network (RNN) for the purpose of "learning a learning\nalgorithm". After being trained on a pre-specified task distribution, the\nlearned weights of the agent\'s RNN are said to implement an efficient learning\nalgorithm through their activity dynamics, which allows the agent to quickly\nsolve new tasks sampled from the same distribution. However, due to the\nblack-box nature of these agents, the way in which they work is not yet fully\nunderstood. In this study, we shed light on the internal working mechanisms of\nthese agents by reformulating the meta-RL problem using the Partially\nObservable Markov Decision Process (POMDP) framework. We hypothesize that the\nlearned activity dynamics is acting as belief states for such agents. Several\nillustrative experiments suggest that this hypothesis is true, and that\nrecurrent meta-RL agents can be viewed as agents that learn to act optimally in\npartially observable environments consisting of multiple related tasks. This\nview helps in understanding their failure cases and some interesting\nmodel-based results reported in the literature.'

The prediction results are not that great but not below the par for a simple model like ours. We can improve this performance with models that consider word order like LSTM or even those that use Transformers (Vaswani et al.).
