SpatialRank: Urban Event Ranking with NDCG Optimization on Spatiotemporal Data

NeurIPS 2023poster

The problem of urban event ranking aims at predicting the top-$k$ most risky locations of future events such as traffic accidents and crimes. This problem is of fundamental importance to public safety and urban administration especially when limited resources are available. The problem is, however,…

Large-scale Stochastic Optimization of NDCG Surrogates for Deep Learning with Provable Convergence

ICML 2022spotlight

NDCG, namely Normalized Discounted Cumulative Gain, is a widely used ranking metric in information retrieval and machine learning. However, efficient and provable stochastic methods for maximizing NDCG are still lacking, especially for deep models. In this paper, we propose a principled approach to…

Multi-block Min-max Bilevel Optimization with Applications in Multi-task Deep AUC Maximization

NeurIPS 2022accept

In this paper, we study multi-block min-max bilevel optimization problems, where the upper level is non-convex strongly-concave minimax objective and the lower level is a strongly convex objective, and there are multiple blocks of dual variables and lower level problems. Due to the intertwined mult…
