Most existing work on multi-label learning focused on supervised learning which requires manual annotation samples that is labor-intensive, time-consuming and costly. To address such a problem, we present a novel method that incorporates active learning into the semi-supervised learning for multi-label image classification. What’s more, aiming at the curse of dimensionality existing in high-dimensional data, we explore a dimensionality reduction technique with non-negative sparseness constraint to extract a group of features that can completely describe the data and hence make the learning model more efficiently. Experimental results on common data sets validate that the proposed algorithm is relatively effective to improve the performance of the learner in multi-label classification, and the obtained learner is with reliability and robustness after data dimensionality using NNS-DR (Non-Negative Sparseness for Dimensionality Reduction).
