5 Multilabel Ranking The goal is to learn a function h(x) = (h 1 (x),..., h m (x)) such that it ranks for a given vector x X the binary labels y = (y 1,..., y m ) from the most to the least relevant. X 1 X 2 Y 1 Y 2... Y m x x x n x ??? 3 / 21
6 Multilabel Ranking The goal is to learn a function h(x) = (h 1 (x),..., h m (x)) such that it ranks for a given vector x X the binary labels y = (y 1,..., y m ) from the most to the least relevant. X 1 X 2 Y 1 Y 2... Y m x x x n x h 2 > h 1 >... > h m 3 / 21
7 Multilabel Ranking The goal is to learn a function h(x) = (h 1 (x),..., h m (x)) such that it ranks for a given vector x X the binary labels y = (y 1,..., y m ) from the most to the least relevant. X 1 X 2 Y 1 Y 2... Y m x x x n x y 2 y 1... y m 3 / 21
8 Multilabel Ranking We use rank loss to measure the quality of ranking: ( l rnk (y, h) = w(y) h i (x) < h j (x) + 1 ) 2 h i(x) = h j (x), (i,j): y i >y j where w(y) < w max is a weight function. X 1 X 2 Y 1 Y 2... Y m x h 2 > h 1 >... > h m 4 / 21
9 Multilabel Ranking We use rank loss to measure the quality of ranking: ( l rnk (y, h) = w(y) h i (x) < h j (x) + 1 ) 2 h i(x) = h j (x), (i,j): y i >y j where w(y) < w max is a weight function. The weight function w(y) is usually used to normalize the range of rank loss to [0, 1]: w(y) = (s y (m s y )) 1, where s y = i y i, i.e., it is equal to the inverse of the total number of pairwise comparisons between labels. 4 / 21
10 Risk and Bayes Classifier We would like to minimize the expected rank loss, or risk, of h(x): L rnk (h, P )=E [l(y, h(x))]= l rnk (y, h(x)) dp (x, y), The optimal solution can be determined pointwise, for each x X separately: L rnk (h, P x)=e [l rnk (Y, h(x)) x]= y Yl rnk (y, h(x))p (y x). The optimal classifier h, referred to as Bayes classifier, is given then by: h (x) = arg min l rnk (y, s)p (y x). s R m y Y It is often more reasonable to compare a given h to the Bayes classifier h by means of the regret defined by: Reg l (h, P ) = L l (h, P ) L l (h, P ) 5 / 21
11 Regret and Consistency Since rank loss is neither convex nor differentiable, we want to use a surrogate loss that is easier in optimization and leads to similar results. We say that a surrogate loss l is consistent with the rank loss when the following holds: Reg l (h, P ) 0 Reg rnk (h, P ) 0. 6 / 21
12 Pairwise Surrogate Losses The most intuitive approach is to use pairwise convex surrogate losses of the form l φ (y, h) = w(y)φ(h i h j ), (i,j): y i >y j where φ is an exponential function (BoosTexter) 1 : φ(f) = e f, logistic function (LLLR) 2 : φ(f) = log(1 + e f ), or hinge function (RankSVM) 3 : φ(f) = max(0, 1 f). 1 R.

14 Pairwise Surrogate Losses Let us denote: uv ij = y : y i =u,y j =v w(y)p (y x). uv ij reduces to P (Y i = u, Y j = v x), for w(y) 1. uv ij = vu ji for all (i, j) Let W = E[w(Y ) x] = y w(y)p (y x). Then 00 ij + 01 ij + 10 ij + 11 ij = W. P (y) w Y 1 Y 2 Y / 21
15 Pairwise Surrogate Losses The conditional risk can be written as: L rnk (h, P x) = ( 10 ij h i < h j + 01 ij h i > h j i>j + 1 ) 2 ( 10 ij + 01 ij ) h i = h j Its minimum (the Bayes risk) is L rnk (P x) = i>j min{ 10 ij, 01 ij }. While the conditional risk of pairwise surrogate loss is: L φ (h, P x) = i>j 10 ij φ(h i h j ) + 10 ji φ(h j h i ), and a necessary condition for consistency is that the Bayes classifier h for φ-loss is also the Bayes ranker, i.e., sign(h i h j) = sign( 10 ij 01 ij ). 10 / 21
16 Multilabel Ranking This approach is, however, inconsistent for the most commonly used convex surrogates (Dutchi et al , Gao and Zhou ). The (nonlinear monotone) transformation φ applies to the differences h i h j, so the minimization of the pairwise convex losses result in a complicated solution h, where h i generally depends on all 10 jk (1 j, k m). The only case in which the above convex pairwise loss is consistent is when the labels are independent (the case of bipartite ranking). There exists a class of pairwise surrogates that is consistent, but we will present a different, simpler approach that is also consistent. 4 J. Duchi, L. Mackey, and M. Jordan. On the consistency of ranking algorithms. In ICML, pages , W. Gao and Z. Zhou. On the consistency of multi-label learning. In COLT, pages , / 21
17 Reduction to Weighted Binary Relevance The Bayes ranker can be obtained by sorting labels according to: 1 i = w(y)p (y x). y : y i =1 For w(y) 1, the labels should be sorted according to their marginal probabilities, since u i reduces to P (Y i = u x) in this case (Dembczynski et al. 2010). 6 6 K. Dembczyński, W. Cheng, and E. Hüllermeier. Bayes optimal multilabel classification via probabilistic classifier chains. In ICML, pages , / 21
18 Reduction to Weighted Binary Relevance Remind that the minimum (the Bayes risk) is L rnk (P x) = i>j Since 1 i = 10 prove that min{ 10 ij, 01 ij }. ij + 11 ij, we can 1 i 1 j = 10 ij 01 ij. P (y) w Y 1 Y 2 Y i / 21
19 Reduction to Weighted Binary Relevance Consider the univariate (weighted) exponential and logistic loss: l exp (y, h) = w(y) l log (y, h) = w(y) m e (2y i 1)h i, i=1 m i=1 The risk minimizer of these losses is: ) log (1 + e (2y i 1)h i. h i (x) = 1 c log 1 i 0 i = 1 c log 1 i W 1 i, which is a strictly increasing transformation of 1 i, where W = E[w(Y ) x] = y w(y)p (y x). 14 / 21
20 Main Result 7 Theorem Let Reg rnk (h, P ) be the regret for rank loss, and Reg exp (h, P ) and Reg log (h, P ) be the regrets for exponential and logistic losses, respectively. Then 6 Reg rnk (h, P ) 4 C Reg exp (h, P ), 2 Reg rnk (h, P ) 2 C Reg log (h, P ), where C m mw max. 7 K. Dembczyński, W. Kot lowski, and E. Hüllermeier.

21 Reduction to Weighted Binary Relevance Vertical reduction: Solving m independent classification problems. Many algorithms that minimize (weighted) exponential or logistic surrogate, such as AdaBoost or logistic regression, can be applied. Besides its simplicity and efficiency, this approach is consistent. 16 / 21
22 Empirical results We use the rank loss with weights defined as: w(y) = (s y (m s y )) 1, where s y = i y i, i.e., the inverse of the total number of pairwise comparisons between labels. We compare algorithms in terms of surrogate losses: The exponential loss: AdaBoost.MR vs WBR-AdaBoost The logistic loss: LLLR vs WBR Logistic Regression Synthetic and benchmark data sets 17 / 21

26 Conclusions We have shown that common univariate convex surrogates are consistent for mutlilabel ranking. We proved explicit regret bounds, relating ranking regret to univariate loss regret. The results are arguably surprising in light of the previous ones, where inconsistency is shown for the most popular pairwise surrogates. On the more practical side, our results motivate simple and scalable algorithms for multilabel ranking, which are plain modifications of standard algorithms for classification.
