Implementation Details
RankNetLoss is a pairwise loss function which learns a ranking function by optimizing pairwise document comparisons using a neural network.
The implementation inherits from the LambdaLoss base class and uses a NoWeightingScheme, focusing solely on the pairwise comparison of documents.
The loss function implements the core RankNet algorithm from the Burges et al. paper (2005), which uses gradient descent to learn a ranking function by optimizing a probabilistic cost function based on pairwise document comparisons.
