====
XGBoost supports accomplishing ranking tasks. In ranking scenario, data are often grouped and we need the [group information file](../../doc/input_format.md#group-input-format) to specify ranking tasks. The model used in XGBoost for ranking is the LambdaRank, this function is not yet completed. Currently, we provide pairwise rank.
