Ranking Inferences Based on the Top Choice of Multiway Comparisons. (arXiv:2211.11957v1 [stat.ME])

This paper considers ranking inference of $n$ items based on the observed
data on the top choice among $M$ randomly selected items at each trial. This is
a useful modification of the Plackett-Luce model for $M$-way ranking with only
the top choice observed and is an extension of the celebrated
Bradley-Terry-Luce model that corresponds to $M=2$. Under a uniform sampling
scheme in which any $M$ distinguished items are selected for comparisons with
probability $p$ and the selected $M$ items are …
