Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 13:
14. A non-transitory processor-readable medium storing code representing instructions to be executed by a processor of a first compute device, the code comprising code to cause the processor to:
receive a plurality of ballots from a plurality of search engines that includes X number of search engines,
X being at least two, the plurality of ballots associated with Y candidates, Y being at least two, each ballot from the plurality of ballots (1) generated based on a search engine from the plurality of search engines different than remaining search engines from the plurality of search engines and (2) indicating how the search engine ranked the Y candidates;

generate a mathematical representation based on the plurality of ballots, the mathematical representation associated with a size of Y by Y,
for each candidate from the Y candidates and for each remaining candidate from the Y candidates, the mathematical representation indicating a number of search engines from the X search engines that ranked that candidate higher than that remaining candidate;

generate a normalized mathematical representation by dividing each value in the mathematical representation by X;
generate a vector based on the normalized mathematical representation;
input the vector into a trained statistical model to generate an output, the output indicating a ranking for the Y candidates; and
cause a hiring action to occur in response to and based on the ranking the Y candidates based on the output.
