An 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 کاملA New Way to Analyze Paired Comparisons
The importance of “paired comparisons,” whether ordinal or cardinal, has motivated the creation of several methodological approaches; missing, however, is a common way to compare the various techniques. To do so, an approach developed here creates a coordinate system for the “data space.” The coordinates capture which data aspects satisfy a strong cardinal transitivity condition and which ones ...

متن کاملPolicy Search using Paired Comparisons
Direct policy search is a practical way to solve reinforcement learning (RL) problems involving continuous state and action spaces. The goal becomes finding policy parameters that maximize a noisy objective function. The Pegasus method converts this stochastic optimization problem into a deterministic one, by using fixed start states and fixed random number sequences for comparing policies (Ng ...
متن کاملConstant-sum paired comparisons for eliciting stated preferences: a tutorial.
There is growing recognition of the importance of formally including public preferences and values in societal decision-making processes. Constant-sum paired comparison (CSPC), sometimes known as a 'budget pie' task, is a stated preference method than can be used to elicit and measure these preferences and values. It requires respondents to allocate resources between two alternatives, and the r...
