Plackett-Luce Model

The Plackett-Luce model is a probabilistic framework for analysing and predicting rank-ordered data. Introduced by Robin Plackett (1975) — building on R. Duncan Luce's earlier axiom of choice (1959) — it models the probability of any complete ranking of items as a sequential selection process, where each item's chance of being chosen at each position is proportional to its latent worth parameter. It is widely used in preference learning, recommender systems, and choice modelling.
