Keynote: Extreme classification for dense retrieval and personalized recommendation
Extreme classification is a new research area pioneered by scientists at Microsoft dealing with classification problems involving millions, or even billions, of categories. In this keynote, partner researcher Manik Varma demonstrates how extreme classification can open a new paradigm for search, recommendation, and personalization applications. He explains how this can lead to significant gains in key metrics such as revenue, relevance, coverage, diversity, and user satisfaction across a wide range of products and markets on the Microsoft Bing platform.
