Abstract
Multi-label classification groups a set of supervised learning methods producing models capable of classifying examples in more than one class. These methods have been applied in diverse fields; however, the field of recommender systems has been hardly explored. In this work, books’ recommendation data are used to evaluate the behavior of the main multi-label classification methods in this application domain. The experiments carried out demonstrated their suitability to provide reliable recommendations and to avoid the grey sheep problem.
