Contrastive Order Learning: A General Framework for Ordinal Regression
We propose contrastive order learning (ConOrd), a contrastive learning framework for ordinal regression that integrates the strengths of contrastive learning and order learning. While contrastive learning effectively leverages all samples in a batch, it typically ignores the inherent ordering among rank labels.
