摘要	Multilabel image recognition (MLR) aims to annotate an image with comprehensive labels and suffers from object occlusion or small object sizes within images. Although the existing works attempt to capture and exploit label correlations to tackle these issues, they predominantly rely on global statistical label correlations as prior knowledge for guiding label prediction, neglecting the unique label correlations present within each image. To overcome this limitation, we propose a semantic and correlation disentangled graph convolution (SCD-GC) method, which builds the image-specific graph and employs graph propagation to reason the labels effectively. Specifically, we introduce a semantic disentangling module to extract categorywise semantic features as graph nodes and develop a correlation disentangling module to extract image-specific label correlations as graph edges. Performing graph convolutions on this image-specific graph allows for better mining of difficult labels with weak visual representations. Visualization experiments reveal that our approach successfully disentangles the dominant label correlations existing within the input image. Through extensive experimentation, we demonstrate that our method achieves superior results on the challenging Microsoft COCO (MS-COCO), PASCAL visual object classes (PASCAL-VOC), NUS web image dataset (NUS-WIDE), and Visual Genome 500 (VG-500) datasets. Code is available at GitHub: https://github.com/caigitrepo/SCDGC.
