Extreme Multi-label Learning for Semantic Matching in Product Search

Wei-Cheng Chang, Daniel Jiang, Hsiang-Fu Yu +9

We consider the problem of semantic matching in product search: given a customer query, retrieve all semantically related products from a huge catalog of size 100 million, or more.…

Taming Pretrained Transformers for Extreme Multi-label Text Classification

Wei-Cheng Chang, Hsiang-Fu Yu, Kai Zhong +2

We consider the extreme multi-label text classification (XMC) problem: given an input text, return the most relevant labels from a large label collection. For example, the input te…
