Preference learning is a challenging problem that involves the prediction of complex structures, such as weak or partial order relations, rather than single values. In the recent ...
We consider supervised learning of a ranking function, which is a mapping from instances to total orders over a set of labels (options). The training information consists of exampl...
We introduce a novel approach to combining rankings from multiple retrieval systems. We use a logistic regression model or an SVM to learn a ranking from pairwise document prefere...
Many of the recently proposed algorithms for learning feature-based ranking functions are based on the pairwise preference framework, in which instead of taking documents in isola...

We consider the problem of learning a ranking function, that is a mapping from instances to rankings over a finite number of labels. Our learning method, referred to as ranking by...
