Unimodality-Promoting Regularized Learning for Ordinal Regression

Ryoya Yamasaki

Ordinal regression, also called ordinal classification, is classification of ordinal data, in which the underlying target variable is categorical and considered to have a natural o…

Isotonic Bradley-Terry Model for Paired Comparison Data

Ryoya Yamasaki

In this paper, we study prediction problems for paired comparison data, for example, predicting the win probability between two unmatched players and ranking all the players accord…

Remarks on Loss Function of Threshold Method for Ordinal Regression Problem

Ryoya Yamasaki, Toshiyuki Tanaka

Threshold methods are popular for ordinal regression problems, which are classification problems for data with a natural ordinal relation. They learn a one-dimensional transformati…

Convergence Analysis of Blurring Mean Shift

Ryoya Yamasaki, Toshiyuki Tanaka

Blurring mean shift (BMS) algorithm, a variant of the mean shift algorithm, is a kernel-based iterative method for data clustering, where data points are clustered according to the…

Label Smoothing is Robustification against Model Misspecification

Ryoya Yamasaki, Toshiyuki Tanaka

Label smoothing (LS) adopts smoothed targets in classification tasks. For example, in binary classification, instead of the one-hot target used in conventional logisti…

Convergence Analysis of Mean Shift

Ryoya Yamasaki, Toshiyuki Tanaka

The mean shift (MS) algorithm seeks a mode of the kernel density estimate (KDE). This study presents a convergence guarantee of the mode estimate sequence generated by the MS algor…

Kernel Selection for Modal Linear Regression: Optimal Kernel and IRLS Algorithm

Ryoya Yamasaki, Toshiyuki Tanaka

Modal linear regression (MLR) is a method for obtaining a conditional mode predictor as a linear model. We study kernel selection for MLR from two perspectives: "which kernel achie…
