  9. Preliminary Ranking Cross-domain Learning-to-Rank Learning-to-rank Summary Transfer Learning Concepts Learning-to-rank [1] is to automatically construct a ranking model from training data. Training Data: Lists of <query,item> pairs with some partial order specified between pairs < X , y > ; where X = { x i = ( q k , t kj ) } ℓ i = 1 and y = { y i } ℓ i = 1 Ranking Model: A function computing relevance of items for actual queries � � = ¯ f x = ( q , t ) y Erheng Zhong Cross-Domain Learning-to-rank

  12. Preliminary Ranking Cross-domain Learning-to-Rank Learning-to-rank Summary Transfer Learning Approaches Three groups with different input representations and loss functions: Pointwise Approach: Each query-document pair in the training data has a numerical or ordinal score. A regression problem. Pairwise Approach: A binary classifier which can tell which document is better in a given pair of documents. The goal is to minimize average number of inversions in ranking. Listwise Approach: They directly optimize the value of one evaluation measure. Erheng Zhong Cross-Domain Learning-to-rank

  17. Preliminary Ranking Cross-domain Learning-to-Rank Learning-to-rank Summary Transfer Learning Concepts and Notations Transfer learning [2] refers to the machine learning framework in which one extracts knowledge from some auxiliary domains to help boost the learning performance in a target domain. Auxiliary domain: D s = { X s , y s } Target domain: D t = { X ℓ , y ℓ ; X u } P s (( x ) , y ) � = P t (( x ) , y ) Erheng Zhong Cross-Domain Learning-to-rank

Preliminary Ranking Cross-domain Learning-to-Rank Learning-to-rank Summary Transfer Learning Approaches “ what to transfer ” [2] Model-based Transfer: Discover shared parameters or prior between cross-domain models. Feature-based Transfer: Find a “good” feature representation that reduces the difference and prediction error between domains. Instance-based Transfer: Re-weight some labeled data in the auxiliary domain for use in the target domain. Erheng Zhong Cross-Domain Learning-to-rank
