Ranking and empirical minimization of U-statistics

TL;DR: This paper forms the ranking problem in a rigorous statistical framework, establishes in particular a tail inequality for degenerate U-processes, and applies it for showing that fast rates of convergence may be achieved under specific noise assumptions, just like in classification.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ranking and Empirical Minimization of U-statistics

TL;DR: In this article, the authors formulate the ranking problem in a rigorous statistical framework, where the goal is to learn a ranking rule for deciding, among two instances, which one is "better" with minimum ranking risk.
Journal Article

Ranking the Best Instances

TL;DR: A local form of the bipartite ranking problem where the goal is to focus on the best instances and a methodology based on the construction of real-valued scoring functions which involve empirical quantiles of the scores is proposed.
Book ChapterDOI

Ranking and scoring using empirical risk minimization

TL;DR: This work investigates learning methods based on empirical minimization of the natural estimates of the ranking risk of U-statistics and U-processes to give a theoretical framework for ranking algorithms based on boosting and support vector machines.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tree-Based Ranking Methods

TL;DR: This paper investigates how recursive partitioning methods can be adapted to the bipartite ranking problem and describes committee-based learning procedures using TreeRank as a ldquobase ranker in order to overcome obvious drawbacks of such a top-down partitioning technique.
