Ranking and Rating Rankings and Ratings
Cardinal scores collected from people are well known to suffer from miscalibrations.

Second, when the underlying distribution is not continuous, the OLS estimator and its asymptotic distribution may be highly sensitive to how ties in

We need to reason about rankings of objects in a wide variety of domains including information retrieval, sports tournaments, bibliometrics, and statistics.
