An Evaluation of Ranking Methods for Multiple Incomplete Round-robin Tournaments
نویسنده
چکیده
We investigate the ability of various methods to reveal the true ranking of players competing in multiple incomplete round-robin tournaments, which arise when not all tournament competitions are held. Statistical and graphical analyses in this simulation-based study reveal that a method based on players' average winning percentages is usually best.

On the aggregation of incomplete preferences
Assume a set of objects is given with information about their bilateral relationships, allowing for incomplete and multiple comparisons as well as different preference intensities. An axiomatic approach is applied for the problem of ranking the objects. Consistency requires the preservation of relative ranking if two sets of such preferences are aggregated. Self-consistency prohibits to assign ...
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 کاملStability Improvement of Hydraulic Turbine Regulating System Using Round-Robin Scheduling Algorithm
The sustainability of hydraulic turbines was one of the most important issues considered by electrical energy provider experts. Increased electromechanical oscillation damping is one of the key issues in the turbines sustainability. Electromechanical oscillations, if not quickly damp, can threaten the stability of hydraulic turbines and causes the separation of different parts of the netw...
متن کاملAn Integrated Constraint Programming Approach to Scheduling Sports Leagues with Divisional and Round-Robin Tournaments
Previous approaches for scheduling a league with round-robin and divisional tournaments involved decomposing the problem into easier subproblems. This approach, used to schedule the top Swedish handball league Elitserien, reduces the problem complexity but can result in suboptimal schedules. This paper presents an integrated constraint programming model that allows to perform the scheduling in ...
