Patent number: 7734633Abstract: Procedures for learning and ranking items in a listwise manner are discussed. A listwise methodology may consider a ranked list, of individual items, as a specific permutation of the items being ranked. In implementations, a listwise loss function may be used in ranking items. A listwise loss function may be a metric which reflects the departure or disorder from an exemplary ranking for one or more sample listwise rankings used in learning. In this manner, the loss function may approximate the exemplary ranking for the plurality of items being ranked.Type: GrantFiled: October 18, 2007Date of Patent: June 8, 2010Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Tie-Yan Liu, Hang Li, Tao Qin, Zhe Cao
