Robustness of Student link function in multinomial choice models

‏‎interpersonal function of language in subtitling

‏‎translation as a comunicative process is always said to be associated with various aspects of meaning loss or gain. subtitling as a mode of translating, due to special discoursal and textual conditions imposed upon it, is believed to be an obvious case of this loss or gain. presenting the spoken sound track of a film in writing and synchronizing the perception of this text by the viewers with...

Estimating Multinomial Choice Models Using Cyclic Monotonicity

This paper proposes a new identification and estimation approach to semi-parametric multinomial choice models that easily applies to not only cross-sectional settings but also panel data settings with unobservable fixed effects. Our approach is based on cyclic monotonicity, which is a defining feature of the random utility framework underlying multinomial choice models. From the cyclic monotoni...

Simple Estimators for Semiparametric Multinomial Choice Models

This paper considers estimation of the coe¢ cients in a semiparametric multinomial choice model with linear indirect utility functions (with common coe¢ cients but di¤ering regressors) and errors that are assumed to be independent of the regressors. This implies that the conditional mean of the vector of dependent indicator variables is a smooth and invertible function of a corresponding vector...

Estimating Semi-parametric Panel Multinomial Choice Models using Cyclic Monotonicity∗

This paper proposes a new semi-parametric identification and estimation approach to multinomial choice models in a panel data setting with individual fixed effects. Our approach is based on cyclic monotonicity, which is a defining feature of the random utility framework underlying multinomial choice models. From the cyclic monotonicity property, we derive identifying inequalities without requir...
