Notice: The reproducibility variables underlying each score are classified using an automated LLM-based pipeline, validated against a manually labeled dataset. LLM-based classification introduces uncertainty and potential bias; scores should be interpreted as estimates. Full accuracy metrics and methodology are described in Coakley et alK. L. Coakley, T.

| Research Type | Theoretical | Our main goal is to study distortion with top-t preferences under the original utilitarian framework. ... We identify a tight bound of ฮ(max( m, m/t)). ... For the case of full rankings (t = m), this matches the lower bound of Caragiannis et al. [2017], closing a m1/6 gap they left open. This resolves the optimal distortion for committee selection as ฮ(min(m/k, m)). |
