Abstract

Ordered lists of objects are widely used as representational forms. Such ordered objects include Web search results or bestseller lists. In spite of their importance, methods of processing orders have received little attention. However, research concerning orders has recently become common; in particular, researchers have developed various methods for the task of Object Ranking to acquire functions for object sorting from example orders. Here, we give a unified view of these methods and compare their merits and demerits.
