Learning to rank is becoming an increasingly popular research area in machine learning. The ranking problem aims to induce an ordering or preference relations among a set of insta...
Ranking algorithms, whose goal is to appropriately order a set of objects/documents, are an important component of information retrieval systems. Previous work on ranking algorith...
The problem of group ranking, a.k.a. rank aggregation, has been studied in contexts varying from sports, to multi-criteria decision making, to machine learning, to ranking web pag...
We study metric learning as a problem of information retrieval. We present a general metric learning algorithm, based on the structural SVM framework, to learn a metric such that ...
The effort necessary to construct labeled sets of examples in a supervised learning scenario is often disregarded, though in many applications, it is a time-consuming and expensi...
