Learning ranking (or preference) functions has been a major issue in the machine learning community and has produced many applications in information retrieval. SVMs (Support Vect...
The need for efficient decentralized recommender systems has been appreciated for some time, both for the intrinsic advantages of decentralization and the necessity of integrating...
