Generalized Bradley-Terry Models for Score Estimation from Paired Comparisons

Julien René Fageot, Le Nguyen Hoang, Sadegh Farhadkhani, Oscar Jean Olivier Villemaud

Many applications, e.g. in content recommendation, sports, or recruitment, leverage the comparisons of alternatives to score those alternatives. The classical Bradley-Terry model and its variants have been widely used to do so. The historical model conside ...
