title: Verification of ideological classifications-a statistical approach
abstract: The paper presents a statistical method of verifying ideological classifications of votes. Parliamentary votes, preclassified by an expert (on a chosen subset), are verified at an assumed significance level by seeking the most likely match with the actual vote results. Classifications that do not meet the requirements defined are rejected. The results obtained can be applied in the ideological dimensioning algorithms, enabling ideological identification of dimensions obtained
