Hi

Is there any plan to add more multi-label classifiers other than OneVsRestClassifier?

Here is a list of few:

  1. CC&ECC: Classifier chains for multi-label classification
  2. HOMER: Effective and Efficient Multilabel Classificationin Domains with Large Number of Labels

I am experimenting with some of those recently. If there is such plan, I can try to contribute some code.

CC&ECC: Classifier chains for multi-label classification

This is a possibility given the 400 citations. There is a stalled pull request about CC in #3727 and @jakevdp has convincing example for regression.

HOMER: Effective and Efficient Multilabel Classificationin Domains with Large Number of Labels

For homer, there is around 135 citations. This is less clear if it should be included in scikit-learn. For instance, it requires to have a specific balanced k-means. However, some overall empirical studies (http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0031320312001203 sorry for the paywall) shows that this method had good performances for some metrics.

I renamed the issue for better searchability.

For ml-knn, there is a discussion in this issue #2606

Multilabel neural network are already pretty good shape in #3939
