Description: Allows calculating global scores for characteristics of
        visual stimuli as assessed by human raters. Stimuli are
        presented as sequence of pairwise comparisons ('contests'),
        during each of which a rater expresses preference for one
        stimulus over the other (forced choice). The algorithm for
        calculating global scores is based on Elo rating, which updates
        individual scores after each single pairwise contest. Elo
        rating is widely used to rank chess players according to their
        performance. Its core feature is that dyadic contests with
        expected outcomes lead to smaller changes of participants'
        scores than outcomes that were unexpected. As such, Elo rating
        is an efficient tool to rate individual stimuli when a large
        number of such stimuli are paired against each other in the
        context of experiments where the goal is to rank stimuli
        according to some characteristic of interest. Clark et al
        (2018) <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0190393> provide details.
