On Locally Optimal Criterion for a Logit Model with Random Parameters
نویسنده
چکیده
Mixed logit is a highly flexible model that can approximate any random utility model. In this paper, two kinds of mixed multinomial logit models were considered. The main aim was to introduce a locally D-optimal criterion to obtain an optimal combination of the levels of attributes for producing alternatives and an optimal combination of alternatives in choice sets. Thus, a design including choice sets as the support points was designed.

On Rank-Ordered Nested Multinomial Logit Model and D-Optimal Design for this Model
In contrast to the classical discrete choice experiment, the respondent in a rank-order discrete choice experiment, is asked to rank a number of alternatives instead of the preferred one. In this paper, we study the information matrix of a rank order nested multinomial logit model (RO.NMNL) and introduce local D-optimality criterion, then we obtain Locally D-optimal design for RO.NMNL models in...
متن کاملA new quadratic deviation of fuzzy random variable and its application to portfolio optimization
The aim of this paper is to propose a convex risk measure in the framework of fuzzy random theory and verify its advantage over the conventional variance approach. For this purpose, this paper defines the quadratic deviation (QD) of fuzzy random variable as the mathematical expectation of QDs of fuzzy variables. As a result, the new risk criterion essentially describes the variation of a fuzzy ...
متن کاملDeveloping a model for simulating urban expansion based on the concept of decision risk: A case study in Babol city
Today, the study of the spatial-temporal pattern of urban physical expansion and the identification of the parameters affecting the expansion play a crucial role in urban-related decision-making and long-term planning processes. Consequently, the use of precise and efficient methods to predict the physical expansion of urban areas is of great importance. The objective of present study is to pro...
متن کاملThe random coefficients logit model is identified
The random coefficients multinomial choice logit model, also known as the mixed logit, has been widely used in empirical choice analysis for the last thirty years. We prove that the distribution of random coefficients in the multinomial logit model is nonparametrically identified. Our approach requires variation in product characteristics only locally and does not rely on the special regressors...
متن کاملAssortment Optimization under the Multinomial Logit Model with Random Choice Parameters
We consider assortment optimization problems under the multinomial logit model, where the parameters of the choice model are random. The randomness in the choice model parameters is motivated by the fact that there are multiple customer segments, each with different preferences for the products, and the segment of each customer is unknown to the firm when the customer makes a purchase. This cho...
