Nonuniform Vote Aggregation Algorithms
Farzad Farnoud, Behrouz Touri, Olgica Milenkovic
We consider the problem of non-uniform vote aggregation, and in particular, the algorithmic aspects associated with the aggregation process. For a novel class of weighted distance…
Novel Distance Measures for Vote Aggregation
Farzad Farnoud, Behrouz Touri, Olgica Milenkovic
We consider the problem of rank aggregation based on new distance measures derived through axiomatic approaches and based on score-based methods. In the first scenario, we derive n…
Alternating Markov Chains for Distribution Estimation in the Presence of Errors
Farzad Farnoud, Narayana P. Santhanam, Olgica Milenkovic
We consider a class of small-sample distribution estimators over noisy channels. Our estimators are designed for repetition channels, and rely on properties of the runs of the obse…
Sorting of Permutations by Cost-Constrained Transpositions
Farzad Farnoud, Olgica Milenkovic
We address the problem of finding the minimum decomposition of a permutation in terms of transpositions with non-uniform cost. For arbitrary non-negative cost functions, we describ…
