An Axiomatic Characterization of the Borda Mean Rule
Given a preference profile, a social dichotomy function partitions the set of alternatives into a set of approved alternatives and a set of disapproved alternatives. The Borda mean rule approves all alternatives with above-average Borda score, and disapproves alternatives with below-average Borda score. We show that the Borda mean rule is the unique social dichotomy function satisfying neutrali...
متن کاملAn axiomatic characterization of Bayes' Rule
This paper provides an axiomatic characterization of Bayes’ Rule that is widely used for updating beliefs. Bayes’ Rule is viewed as a revision rule. Consider an agent whose belief about a set of states is characterized by a point in a unit simplex of appropriate dimension. Now new information emerges that rules out the possible occurrence of some of the states. The revision rule then assigns ne...
متن کاملAxiomatic Characterization of the Quadratic Scoring Rule
In the evaluation of experiments often the problem arises of how to compare the predictive success of competing probabilistic theories. The quadratic scoring rule can be used for this purpose. Originally, this rule was proposed as an incentive compatible elicitation method for probabilistic expert judgments. It is shown that up to a positive linear transformation, the quadratic scoring rule is ...
متن کاملWeakened Liberal Rule Respecting Others’ Consensus: An Axiomatic Characterization
We introduce the strong quasi-liberal rule, which is an extension of the strong liberal rule in Kasher and Rubinstein (1997) through the requirement of at least one agreement. We provide an axiomatic characterization of strong quasi-liberal rule. Similarly, we generalize the order of the rule (associated with the degree of minimum agreement requirement) to match the Consent Rules in Samet and S...
متن کاملProbabilistic Borda rule voting
An alternative voting system, referred to as probabilistic Borda rule, is developed and analyzed. The winning alternative under this system is chosen by lottery where the weights are determined from each alternative’s Borda score relative to all Borda points possible. Advantages of the lottery include the elimination of strategic voting on the set of alternatives under consideration and breakin...
