Project description
Fast algorithms for multi-winner voting
Computational social choice (COMSOC) lies at the junction of social choice theory, computer science and economics. Since the effectiveness of a particular voting system is restricted if calculation of the winner of an election requires a long time, computational social choice is concerned with the efficient computation of results of voting rules. The EU-funded PRAGMA project will study multi-winner elections to provide a proper structure for multi-winner voting applications in a wide range of real-life cases. The project will design new, fast algorithms for computing the results of multi-winner voting rules and new languages of specifying preferences, achieving an algorithmic and mathematical understanding of preference data, and provide algorithms for analysing elections.
