Model<PermutationVector>

public final class MallowsModel extends Object implements Model<PermutationVector>
Mallows model under Kendall distance.

The model estimates a consensus permutation (Borda-like ranking from elites) and concentration parameter φ (or θ=-log φ) from average Kendall distance to the consensus. Sampling uses repeated insertion model (RIM), yielding a valid permutation with controllable dispersion around consensus.
