BBconsensus2: Core function in computing consensus ranking as defined by Emond and Mason (2002)
Description
Core function in computing consensus ranking as defined by Emond and Mason (2002), recalled by EMCons function
Usage
BBconsensus2(RR, cij, Po, PS = TRUE, FULL = FALSE)
Arguments
RR
A ranking
cij
combined input matrix
Po
current penalty
PS
If PS=true, it prints the evaluating branches
FULL
Default FULL=FALSE. If FULL=TRUE, the searching is limited to the space of complete rankings. FULL=TRUE if the function is called by BBFULL algorithm.
Value
median ranking
