Traditional discriminative classification method makes little attempt to reveal the probabilistic structure and the correlation within both input and output spaces. In the scenario of multi-label classification, most of the classifiers simply assume the predefined classes are independently distributed, which would definitely hinder the classification performance when there are intrinsic correlations between the classes. In this article, we propose a generative probabilistic model, the Correlated Labeling Model (CoL Model), to formulate the correlation between different classes. The CoL model is presented to capture the correlation between classes and the underlying structures via the latent random variables in a supervised manner. We develop a variational procedure to approximate the posterior distribution and employ the EM algorithm for the empirical Bayes parameter estimation. In our evaluations, the proposed model achieved promising results on various data sets.
