A paired comparisons ranking and Swiss-system chess team tournaments
نویسنده
چکیده
The paper reveals that the Weighted Logarithmic Least Squares Method used for deriving evaluations of alternatives from incomplete pairwise comparison matrices (iWLLSM) coincides with the recursive Buchholz ranking method applied in generalized tournaments, despite their different approach and calculation. We study it with respect to a set of new properties and present the strength of the method in the case of Swiss-system chess team tournaments.

On the ranking of a Swiss system chess team tournament
The paper suggests a family of paired comparison-based scoring procedures using linear algebra for ranking the participants of a Swiss system chess team tournament. We present the main challenges of ranking in Swiss system, the features of individual and team competitions as well as the failures of official lexicographical orders. The tournament is represented as a ranking problem, our model is...
متن کاملAn impossibility theorem for paired comparisons
In several decision-making problems, alternatives should be ranked on the basis of paired comparisons between them. We present an axiomatic approach for the universal ranking problem with arbitrary preference intensities, incomplete and multiple comparisons. In particular, two basic properties – independence of irrelevant matches and self-consistency – are considered. It is revealed that there ...
متن کاملEfficient Pairwise Classification and Ranking
Pairwise classification is a class binarization procedure that converts a multi-class problem into a series of two-class problems, one problem for each pair of classes. While it can be shown that for training, this procedure is more efficient than the more commonly used one-against-all approach, it still has to evaluate a quadratic number of classifiers when computing the predicted class for a ...
