Research Type Theoretical Despite great advances in algorithms for multilabel learning, research on the theoretical analysis of generalization is still in the early stage. Some recent theoretical results has investigated the generalization performance of multi-label learning under several evaluation metrics, however, how to reduce the dependency on the number of labels, explicitly introduce label correlations, and quantitatively analyze the impact of various inductive biases in the generalization analysis of multi-label learning is still a crucial and open problem. In an attempt to make up for the gap in the generalization theory of multi-label learning, we develop several novel vector-contraction inequalities, which exploit the Lipschitz continuity of loss functions, and derive generalization bounds with a weaker dependency on the number of labels than the state of the art in the case of decoupling the relationship among different components, which serves as theoretical guarantees for the generalization of multi-label learning.
