The paper introduces MoPLEx, an expectation‑maximization algorithm for learning mixtures of Plackett‑Luce models from multi‑way ranking data. It augments rankings with synthetic responses from a base language model and uses a gradient‑based estimation to reduce inference cost, enabling efficient fitting of large‑scale models. Experiments show the method achieves low probability estimation error and improves clustering and ranking accuracy by 43.7% and 15.2% over baselines.
