We give improvements over fixed parameter tractable (FPT) algorithms to solve the Kemeny aggregation problem, where the task is to summarize a multi-set of preference lists, call...
In this paper we obtain parameterized subexponential-time algorithms for p-Kemeny Aggregation (p-KAGG) -- a problem in social choice theory -- and for p-One-Sided Crossing Minimiza...

RANK AGGREGATION is important in many areas ranging from web search over databases to bioinformatics. The underlying decision problem KEMENY SCORE is NP-complete even in case of fo...
The Kemeny Score problem is central to many applications in the context of rank aggregation. Given a set of permutations (votes) over a set of candidates, one searches for a “con...

We present a polynomial time approximation scheme (PTAS) for the minimum feedback arc set problem on tournaments. A simple weighted generalization gives a PTAS for KemenyYoung ran...
