Discrete Choice and Censoring

چکیده
Multinomial Choice: Data consists of consumer choices of various goods, along char acteristics. Let there be J choices and y = (y1, . . . , yJ ) where yj = 1 if good j is chosen and yj = 0 otherwise. Let x be observed characteristics of the goods and choices. Here a conditional density for y corresponds to conditional choice probabilities P (j|x, β), one for each j, with �J j=1 P (j|x, β) = 1 for all β and x. Then

Fixed and Random Effects in Nonlinear Models
This paper surveys recently developed approaches to analyzing panel data with nonlinear models. We summarize a number of results on estimation of fixed and random effects models in nonlinear modeling frameworks such as discrete choice, count data, duration, censored data, sample selection, stochastic frontier and, generally, models that are nonlinear both in parameters and variables. We show th...

متن کاملAn Integrated Maximum Score Estimator for a Generalized Censored Quantile Regression Model
Quantile regression techniques have been widely used in empirical economics. In this paper, we consider the estimation of a generalized quantile regression model when data are subject to fixed or random censoring. Through a discretization technique, we transform the censored regression model into a sequence of binary choice models and further propose an integrated smoothed maximum score estimat...

متن کاملInference and Optimal Censoring Schemes for Progressively Censored Birnbaum-Saunders Distribution
The aim of this article is two fold. First we discuss the maximum likelihood estimators of the unknown parameters of a two-parameter Birnbaum-Saunders distribution when the data are progressively Type-II censored. The maximum likelihood estimators are obtained using the EM algorithm by exploiting the property that the BirnbaumSaunders distribution can be expressed as an equal mixture of an inve...
