Sample from the Mallows distribution.

Description

Sample from the Mallows distribution with arbitrary distance metric using a Metropolis-Hastings algorithm.

Usage

rmallows(
  rho0,
  alpha0,
  n_samples,
  burnin,
  thinning,
  leap_size = 1L,
  metric = "footrule"
)

Arguments

rho0

Vector specifying the latent consensus ranking.

alpha0

Scalar specifying the scale parameter.

n_samples

Integer specifying the number of random samples to generate.

burnin

Integer specifying the number of iterations to discard as burn-in.

thinning

Integer specifying the number of MCMC iterations to perform between each time a random rank vector is sampled.

leap_size

Integer specifying the step size of the leap-and-shift proposal distribution.

metric

Character string specifying the distance measure to use. Available options are "footrule" (default), "spearman", "cayley", "hamming", "kendall", and "ulam".
