A Study of the Bipartite Ranking Problem in Machine Learning
Finally, we demonstrate a practical application of bipartite ranking to a problem in bioinformatics, namely the problem of identifying genes related to a given disease based on microarray data. Our studies on leukemia and colon cancer data sets show very promising results, including the identification of some exciting candidate genes as potential targets for drug development.
