A weighted difference loss approach for enhancing multi-label classification by Qiong Hu, Masrah Azrifah Azmi Murad, Azreen Bin Azman, Nurul Amelina Nasharuddin

“…To address this, we introduce a novel Weighted Difference Loss (WDL) framework. WDL operates on three core principles: (1) transforming labels into a normalized distribution to model their relative proportions; (2) computing learnable, weighted differences across this distribution to explicitly capture inter-label dynamics and trends; and (3) employing a label-shuffling augmentation to ensure the model learns intrinsic, order-invariant relationships. …”
