DISTANCE MEASURES IN AGGREGATING PREFERENCE DATA

The aim of this paper is to present aggregation methods of individual preferences scores by means of distance measures. Three groups of distance measures are discussed: measures  which use preference distributions for all pairs of objects (e.g. Kemeny’s measure, Bogart’s measure), distance measures...
