Quasi-Random Simulation of Discrete Choice Models
We describe the properties of (t,m, s)-nets and Halton draws. Four types of (t,m, s)-nets, two types of Halton draws, and independent draws are compared in an application of maximum simulated likelihood estimation of a mixed logit model. All of the quasi-random procedures are found to perform far better than independent draws. The best performance is attained by one of the (t,m, s)-nets. The pr...
متن کاملBayesian Estimation of Dynamic Discrete Choice Models
We propose a new estimator for dynamic programming discrete choice models. Our estimation method combines the Dynamic Programming algorithm with a Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo algorithm into one single Markov Chain algorithm that solves the dynamic programming problem and estimates the parameters at the same time. Our key innovation is that during each solution-estimation iteration both th...
متن کاملFuzzy 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 کاملRandom Covariance Heterogeneity in Discrete Choice Models
In this paper, we extend the standard discrete choice modelling framework by allowing for random variation in the substitution patterns between alternatives across respondents, leading to increased model flexibility. The paper shows how such a Mixed Covariance model can be specified either with purely random variation or with a mixture between random and deterministic variation. Additionally, t...
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.
