ConsRank - Compute the Median Ranking(s) According to the Kemeny's
Axiomatic Approach
Compute the median ranking according to the Kemeny's
axiomatic approach. Rankings can or cannot contain ties,
rankings can be both complete or incomplete. The package
contains both branch-and-bound algorithms and heuristic
solutions recently proposed. The searching space of the
solution can either be restricted to the universe of the
permutations or unrestricted to all possible ties. The package
also provide some useful utilities for deal with preference
rankings, including both element-weight Kemeny distance and
correlation coefficient. This release declare as deprecated
some functions that are still in the package for compatibility.
Next release will not contains these functions. Please type
