Fuzzy Random Utility Choice Models: The Case of Telecommuting Suitability
Random utility models have been widely used in many diverse fields. Considering utility as a random variable opened many new analytical doors to researchers in explaining behavioral phenomena. Introducing and incorporating the random error term into the utility function had several reasons, including accounting for unobserved variables. This paper incorporates fuzziness into random utility mode...
متن کاملOmitted Product Attributes in Discrete Choice Models
We describe two methods for correcting an omitted variables problem in discrete choice models: a fixed effects approach and a control function approach. The control function approach is easier to implement and applicable in situations for which the fixed effects approach is not. We apply both methods to a cross-section of disaggregate data on customer’s choice among television options including...
متن کاملProbabilistic and Utility-theoretic Models in Social Choice: Challenges for Learning, Elicitation, and Manipulation
The abundance of inexpensive preference data facilitated by online commerce, search, recommender systems, and social networks has the potential to stretch the boundaries of social choice. Specifically, concepts and models usually applied to high stakes domains such as political elections, public or corporate policy decisions, and the like, will increasingly find themselves used in the lower sta...
متن کاملAttribute Reduction in Utility-Based Decision-Theoretic Rough Set Models
Decision-theoretic rough set (DTRS) model, proposed by Yao in the early 1990’s, introduces Bayesian decision procedure and loss function in rough set theory. Considering utility function in decision processing, utility-based decision-theoretic rough set model (UDTRS) is given in this paper. The utility of the positive region, the boundary region and the negative region are obtained respectively...
متن کاملModeling the choice of choice set in discrete-choice random-utility models
In conventional random-utility models, such as the multinomial logit model, it is assumed that a decisionmaker's choice set is independent of his or her preferences conditional on the explanatory variables of the models. However, there are many situations in which the decisionmaker chooses the choice set, thereby making the independence assumption implausible. For example, if information about ...
