arXiv:2606.07599v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Ordinal Regression (OR) aims to predict target values with inherent order, underpinning critical applications across diverse domains, from recommender systems to computer vision. Though having evolved from naive regression to discretization-based classification and generation, existing paradigms remain fundamentally constrained by quantization artifacts and the lack of global ordinal topological perception. These methods typically enforce rigid boundary delineations, failing to capture the non-stationary semantic transitions inherent to ordinal d
