Given a set of items to chose from, the elimination strategy starts with the whole item set and iteratively eliminates the least worthy item in the remaining subset. We prove that the choice by elimination is equivalent to marginalizing out the random Gompertz latent utilities. Coupled with the choice model is the recently introduced Neural Highway Networks for approximating arbitrarily complex rank functions. We evaluate the proposed framework on a large-scale public dataset with over 425K items, drawn from the Yahoo! learning to rank challenge. It is demonstrated that the proposed method is competitive against state-of-the-art learning to rank methods.
