Hybridizing Median and Average for Measuring,Electing and Ranking Candidates | Chapter 14 | Theory and Practice of Mathematics and Computer Science Vol. 1

 

In this contribution we show that neither mean-based voting systems nor median-based ones can

ful_ll requirements of an ideal democracy. We then work out an original voting function obtained

by hydrizing Borda Majority Count (mean-based) and Majority Judgment (median-based). The so-

called \Mean-Median Compromise Method" slices between mean and average values. It proposes,

moreover, a new tie-breaking method computing intermedian grades mean.
