International audienceWe describe and evaluate two algorithms for Neyman-Pearson (NP) classification problem which has been recently shown to be of a particular importance for bipartite ranking problems. NP classification is a nonconvex problem involving a constraint on false negatives rate. We investigated batch algorithm based on DC programming and stochastic gradient method well suited for large scale datasets. Empirical evidences illustrate the potential of the proposed methods
