The Bradley--Terry condition is L1L_1--testable

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

We provide an algorithm with constant running time that given a weighted tournament TT, distinguishes with high probability of success between the cases that TT can be represented by a Bradley--Terry model, or cannot even be approximated by one. The same algorithm tests whether the corresponding Markov chain is reversible.
