The area under an ROC curve (AUC) is a criterion used in many applications to measure the quality of a classification algorithm. However, the objective function optimized in most...
We consider the problem of learning a ranking function, that is a mapping from instances to rankings over a finite number of labels. Our learning method, referred to as ranking by...
In this paper, a novel and effective criterion based on the estimation of the signal-to-noise-ratio figure (SNRF) is proposed to optimize the number of hidden neurons in neural ne...
