Abstract
A system and method for determining a rank aggregation from a series of partial preferences is presented. A distribution is learned over preferences from partial preferences with sparse support. A computer receives a plurality of partial preferences selected from two or more preference lists. Weights are assigned to each of said plurality of partial preferences, resulting in multiple ranked lists.
