Discrete choice models with multiplicative error terms

We propose a multiplicative speci cation of a discrete choice model that renders choice probabilities independent of the scale of the utility. The scale can thus be random with unspeci ed distribution. The model mostly outperforms the classical additive formulation over a range of stated choice data sets. In some cases, the improvement in likelihood is greater than that obtained from adding obs...

Model Selection for Mixture Models Using Perfect Sample

We have considered a perfect sample method for model selection of finite mixture models with either known (fixed) or unknown number of components which can be applied in the most general setting with assumptions on the relation between the rival models and the true distribution. It is, both, one or neither to be well-specified or mis-specified, they may be nested or non-nested. We consider mixt...

Vector Multiplicative Error Models: Representation and Inference∗

The Multiplicative Error Model introduced by Engle (2002) for positive valued processes is specified as the product of a (conditionally autoregressive) scale factor and an innovation process with positive support. In this paper we propose a multivariate extension of such a model, by taking into consideration the possibility that the vector innovation process be contemporaneously correlated. The...

Estimation of sample selection models with two selection mechanisms

This paper focuses on estimating limited dependent variable models with incidentally truncated data and two selection mechanisms. While typical sample selection models have been widely estimated, extensions to multiple selection mechanisms have been sparse due to intractable likelihood functions or estimation algorithms with slow convergence. This paper extends the sampling algorithm from Chib ...
