Abstract: In contrast to the standard machine learning tasks of classification and metric regression we investigate the problem of predicting variables of ordinal scale, a setting referred to as ordinal regression. The task of ordinal regression arises frequently in the social sciences and in information retrieval where human preferences play a major role. Also many multi--class problems are really problems of ordinal regression due to an ordering of the classes. Although the problem is rather novel to... (Update)

...can be controlled by making use of a quantity known as the margin. Let us consider the set H k of kernel classifiers [ Weston and Herbrich, 1999 ] 1 f(x) X i=1 ff i k(x i ; x) ff 2 R : 1) Here, k is referred to as a kernel and is assumed to be symmetric and...

.... that the Bayes optimal decision function on pairs of objects can result in a function p which is no longer transitive on X (Herbrich et al. 1999). Note also that the requirements of transitivity and asymmetry effectively reduce the space of admissible classification...
