+## 🏷️ Multi-Label Classification
+
+The `MultiLabelAdaptiveClassifier` extends adaptive classification to handle scenarios where each text can belong to multiple categories simultaneously. It automatically handles threshold adaptation for scenarios with many labels.
+
+### Key Features
+
+- **🎯 Automatic Threshold Adaptation**: Dynamically adjusts thresholds based on the number of labels to prevent empty predictions
+- **📊 Sigmoid Activation**: Uses proper multi-label architecture with BCE loss instead of softmax
+- **⚙️ Configurable Limits**: Set minimum and maximum number of predictions per input
+- **📈 Label-Specific Thresholds**: Automatically adjusts thresholds based on label frequency
+- **🔄 Incremental Learning**: Add new labels and examples without retraining from scratch
+
+### Usage
+
+```python
+from adaptive_classifier import MultiLabelAdaptiveClassifier
+
+# Initialize with configuration
+classifier = MultiLabelAdaptiveClassifier(
+    "distilbert/distilbert-base-cased",
+    default_threshold=0.5,
+    min_predictions=1,
+    max_predictions=5
+)
+
+# Multi-label training data
+texts = [
+    "Breaking: Scientists discover AI can help predict climate change patterns",
+    "Tech giant announces breakthrough in quantum computing for healthcare",
+    "Olympic committee adopts new sports technology for athlete performance"
+]
+
+labels = [
+    ["science", "technology", "climate", "news"],
+    ["technology", "healthcare", "quantum", "business"],
+    ["sports", "technology", "performance", "news"]
+]
+
+# Train the classifier
+classifier.add_examples(texts, labels)
+
+# Make predictions
+predictions = classifier.predict_multilabel(
+    "Revolutionary medical AI system launched by tech startup"
+)
+
+# Results: [('technology', 0.85), ('healthcare', 0.72), ('business', 0.45)]
+```
+
+### Adaptive Thresholds
+
+The classifier automatically adjusts prediction thresholds based on the number of labels:
+
+| Number of Labels | Threshold | Benefit |
+|-----------------|-----------|---------|
+| 2-4 labels | 0.5 (default) | Standard precision |
+| 5-9 labels | 0.4 (20% lower) | Balanced recall |
+| 10-19 labels | 0.3 (40% lower) | Better coverage |
+| 20-29 labels | 0.2 (60% lower) | Prevents empty results |
+| 30+ labels | 0.1 (80% lower) | Ensures predictions |
+
+This solves the common "No labels met the threshold criteria" issue when dealing with many-label scenarios.
