Learning to rank using gradient descent
We investigate using gradient descent methods for learning ranking functions; we propose a simple probabilistic cost function, and we introduce RankNet, an implementation of these...

Optimising area under the ROC curve using gradient descent
This paper introduces RankOpt, a linear binary classifier which optimises the area under the ROC curve (the AUC). Unlike standard binary classifiers, RankOpt adopts the AUC stat...

Ant Colony Optimization and Stochastic Gradient Descent
In this paper, we study the relationship between the two techniques known as ant colony optimization (aco) and stochastic gradient descent. More precisely, we show that some empir...

Empirical analysis of generalization and learning in XCS with gradient descent
We analyze generalization and learning in XCS with gradient descent. At first, we show that the addition of gradient in XCS may slow down learning because it indirectly decreases...
