Enhancing Agent-Based Models with Discrete Choice Experiments
Agent-based modeling is a promising method to investigate market dynamics, as it allows modeling the behavior of all market participants individually. Integrating empirical data in the agentsrsquo; decision model can improve the validity of agent-based models (ABMs). We present an approach of using discrete choice experiments (DCEs) to enhance the empirical foundation of ABMs. The DCE method is...
متن کاملRanking in discrete choice experiments
A common problem in ethology is ranking of animal preferences for several discrete stimuli or options. We considered experiments where animals chose one of all possible simultaneously presented options. The animals might be observed at repeated occasions. In the ethological literature the analysis is often focused on testing the global hypotheses of no difference in preferences by non-parametri...
متن کاملDiscrete choice models based on random walks
We show that a large class of discrete choice models which contain the Markov chain model introduced by Blanchet, Gallego, and Goyal (2013) belong to the class of discrete choice models based on random utility. © 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
متن کاملChoice Based Conjoint Analysis: Discrete Choice Models vs. Direct Regression
Conjoint analysis is family of techniques that originated in psychology and later became popular in market research. The main objective of conjoint analysis is to measure an individual’s or a population’s preferences on a class options that can be described by parameters and their levels. We consider preference data obtained in choice based conjoint analysis studies, where one observes test per...
متن کاملAgent—Based Models and Human Subject Experiments∗
I examine the relationship between agent-based modeling and economic decision-making experiments with human subjects. Both approaches exploit controlled “laboratory” conditions as a means of isolating the sources of aggregate phenomena. Research findings from laboratory studies of human subject behavior have inspired studies using artificial agents in “computational laboratories” and vice versa...
