On Rank-Ordered Nested Multinomial Logit Model and D-Optimal Design for this Model

author

Abstract:

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 the discrete choice experiment.

Frequentist model averaging for multinomial and ordered logit models

Multinomial and ordered Logit models are quantitative techniques which are used in a range of disciplines nowadays. When applying these techniques, practitioners usually select a single model using either information-based criteria or pretesting. In this paper, we consider the alternative strategy of combining models rather than selecting a single model. Our strategy ofweight choice for the can...

The Generalized Multinomial Logit Model

The so-called “mixed” or “heterogeneous” multinomial logit (MIXL) model has become popular in a number of fields, especially Marketing, Health Economics and Industrial Organization. In most applications of the model, the vector of consumer utility weights on product attributes is assumed to have a multivariate normal (MVN) distribution in the population. Thus, some consumers care more about som...

The Generalized Nested Logit Model

The generalized nested logit model is a new member of the generalized extreme value family of models. The GNL provides a higher degree of flexibility in the estimation of substitution or cross-elasticity between pairs of alternatives than previously developed generalized extreme value models. The generalized nested logit model includes the paired combinatorial logit and cross-nested logit model...

Bayesian Inference in the Multinomial Logit Model

The multinomial logit model (MNL) possesses a latent variable representation in terms of random variables following a multivariate logistic distribution. Based on multivariate finite mixture approximations of the multivariate logistic distribution, various data-augmented Metropolis-Hastings algorithms are developed for a Bayesian inference of the MNL model. Zusammenfassung: Das multinomiale log...

A Note on the Estimation of the Multinomial Logit Model

The multinomial logit model with random eeects is often used in modeling correlated nominal polytomous data. Given that there is no standard software of tting it, we advocate using either a Poisson log-linear model or a Poisson nonlinear model, both with random eeects. Their implementations can be carried out easily by many existing commercial statistical packages including SAS. A brand choice ...

Assortment Optimization under the Multinomial Logit Model with Nested Consideration Sets

We study assortment optimization problems when customers choose under the multinomial logit model with nested considerations sets. In this choice model, there are multiple customer types and a customer of a particular type is interested in purchasing only a particular subset of products. We use the term consideration set to refer to the subset of products that a customer of a particular type is...
