**TLDR:** A more realistic classification problem in which an image can belong to multiple classes at the same time.

<p>Multi-label image classification is used when a single image contains multiple objects, attributes, or semantic labels. A scene may contain "person", "car", and "road" at the same time. This is highly important in surveillance analytics, media indexing, e-commerce cataloging, and smart-city applications. Proper thresholding and management of label correlations are key to model performance.</p>
