A Statistical Decision-Theoretic Framework for Social Choice

no code implementations NeurIPS 2014 Hossein Azari Soufiani, David C. Parkes, Lirong Xia

In our framework, we are given a statistical ranking model, a decision space, and a loss function defined on (parameter, decision) pairs, and formulate social choice mechanisms as decision rules that minimize expected loss.

Generalized Method-of-Moments for Rank Aggregation

no code implementations NeurIPS 2013 Hossein Azari Soufiani, William Chen, David C. Parkes, Lirong Xia

In this paper we propose a class of efficient Generalized Method-of-Moments(GMM) algorithms for computing parameters of the Plackett-Luce model, where the data consists of full rankings over alternatives.

Generalized Random Utility Models with Multiple Types

no code implementations NeurIPS 2013 Hossein Azari Soufiani, Hansheng Diao, Zhenyu Lai, David C. Parkes

We propose a model for demand estimation in multi-agent, differentiated product settings and present an estimation algorithm that uses reversible jump MCMC techniques to classify agents' types.
