Random block coordinate descent method for multi-label support vector machine with a zero label

作者:

Highlights:

• A random block coordinate descent method for multi-label SVM with a zero label is proposed.

• Theoretical analysis shows that our novel method has a lower time complexity.

• This novel training procedure runs averagely 11 times faster than the original algorithm based on Frank–Wolfe method.

• This method produces fewer support vectors compared with Frank–Wolfe method.

• Our new algorithm is an effective and efficient candidate for multi-label classification.
