A participatory budgeting (PB) algorithm is an algorithm for implementing participatory budgeting. The inputs to a PB algorithm are: a list of possible projects that require funding, the total available budget for funding the projects, and the preferences of voters over the project. The output of a PB algorithm is a partition of budget among the projects - determining how much money to allocate to each project. A PB algorithm can treat the projects as either divisible or indivisible:

Property Value
dbo:abstract
  • A participatory budgeting (PB) algorithm is an algorithm for implementing participatory budgeting. The inputs to a PB algorithm are: a list of possible projects that require funding, the total available budget for funding the projects, and the preferences of voters over the project. The output of a PB algorithm is a partition of budget among the projects - determining how much money to allocate to each project. A PB algorithm can treat the projects as either divisible or indivisible: * A divisible PB algorithm may allocate any amount of money to any project, as long as the sum of allocations equals the budget. It is suited for projects in which each additional dollar can be used effectively, such as charity donations. * An indivisible PB algorithm takes, as additional inputs, the costs of the projects. It returns a subset of the projects, such that the total cost of the selected projects does not exceed the budget. Each selected project is allocated its entire cost, while each unselected project is allocated nothing. It is better suited for projects which must be entirely funded in order to operate, such as constructing new buildings. (en)
