abstract: 'Easily compute an aggregate ranking (also called a median ranking or a
  consensus ranking) according to the axiomatic approach presented by Cook et al.
  (2007). This approach minimises the number of violations between all candidate consensus
  rankings and all input (partial) rankings, and draws on a branch and bound algorithm
  and a heuristic algorithm to drastically improve speed. The package also provides
  an option to bootstrap a consensus ranking based on resampling input rankings (with
  replacement). Input rankings can be either incomplete (partial) or complete. Reference:
  Cook, W.D., Golany, B., Penn, M. and Raviv, T. (2007) <https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cor.2005.05.030>.'
