An algorithm independent metric is introduced that measures the dispersion of a uniform random sample drawn from the top ranked percentiles of the search space. A low dispersion f...
Rank correlation measures are known for their resilience to perturbations in numeric values and are widely used in many evaluation metrics. Such ordinal measures have rarely been ...

Nonnegative Matrix Factorization (NMF) approximates a given data matrix as a product of two low rank nonnegative matrices, usually by minimizing the L2 or the KL distance between ...
We present a novel approach to learn distance metric for information retrieval. Learning distance metric from a number of queries with side information, i.e., relevance judgements...
In this paper we study how to improve nearest neighbor classification by learning a Mahalanobis distance metric. We build on a recently proposed framework for distance metric lear...
