Ranking-Based Case Retrieval with Graph Neural Networks in Process-Oriented Case-Based Reasoning by Maximilian Hoffmann, Ralph Bergmann

“…The main contribution of this paper addresses the changes to the GNNs from previous work, such that their model architecture predicts pairwise preferences between cases w.r.t. a query and that they can be trained using labeled preference data. In order to transform these preferences into a case ranking, we also describe rank aggregation methods with different levels of computational complexity. …”
