On social rankings and their properties

چکیده
Several real-life complex systems, like human societies or economic networks, are formed by interacting units characterized by patterns of relationships that may generate a group-based social hierarchy. In this paper, we address the problem of how to rank the individuals with respect to their ability to “influence” the relative strength of groups in a society. We also analyse the effect of basic properties in the computation of a social ranking within specific classes of (ordinal) coalitional situations.

Pairwise Diffusion of Preference Rankings in Social Networks
We introduce a model of preference diffusion in which agents in a social network update their preferences based on those of their influencers in the network, and we study the dynamics of this model. Preferences are modelled as ordinal rankings over a finite set of alternatives. At each time step, some of the agents update the relative ordering of two alternatives adjacent in their current ranki...
متن کاملRanking Networks
Latent space models for network formation assume that nodes possess latent attributes that determine their propensity to connect. We propose a new model for network formation, ranking networks, in which these attributes are rankings over some space of alternatives. Such rankings may reflect user preferences, relevance/quality judgements, etc., while ranking networks capture correlations of, say...

متن کاملA Decision-theoretic Model of Rank Aggregation
Modern social choice theory has spurred considerable recent work in computational rank aggregation, the problem of aggregating rankings into a consensus ranking. However, in the social choice context where rankings represent preferences of agents, or “voters,” over outcomes, or “candidates,” there is scant justification in the literature for producing rankings as an output of the aggregation pr...
