How to Select the Best Paper: Towards Justification (and Possible Enhancement) of Current Semi-Heuristic Procedures
F. Zapata, Olga M. Kosheleva, Владик Крейнович · Matematičeskie struktury i modelirovanie · 2018
To select the best paper at a conference or in a journal, people use reasonably standard semi-heuristic procedures like averaging scores. These procedures usually work well, but sometimes, new situations appear for which the existing procedures are not automatically applicable. Since the existing procedures are heuristic, it is often not clear how to extend them to new situations. In this paper, we provide a possible explanation for the existing procedures. This explanations enables us to naturally generalize these processes to possible new situations.
