The growth in female labour particpation and occupational attainment represents the most dramatic feature of labour markets in the second half of the twentieth century. This has been due in part to developments in social attitudes and the consequent changes in the prices attached to womens’ characteristics, and in part to changes in those characteristics themselves. This paper analyses these is...

We propose an estimator for discrete choice models, such as the logit, with a nonparametric distribution of random coefficients. The estimator, based on linear regression subject to linear inequality constraints, is robust, simple to program, and quick to compute compared to alternative estimators for mixture models. We discuss three methods for proving identification of the distribution of het...

Understanding the underlying relationship between crash injury severity and factors such as driver’s characteristics, vehicle type, and roadway conditions is very important for improving traffic safety. Most previous studies on this topic used traditional statistical models such as ordered probit OP , multinomial logit, and nested logit models. This research introduces the Bayesian inference an...

The choice network revenue management model incorporates customer purchase behavior as a function of the offered products, and is the appropriate model for airline and hotel network revenue management, dynamic sales of bundles, and dynamic assortment optimization. The optimization problem is a stochastic dynamic program and is intractable. A certainty-equivalence relaxation of the dynamic progr...

In the context of the SustainCity project (http://www.sustaincity.eu), three European cities (Brussels, Paris and Zurich) will be modelled using the land use microsimulation platform UrbanSim. This platform relies on various models interacting with each other, to predict long-term urban development. The aim of this paper is to provide some econometric insight into this process. A common set of ...

one of the farmers' marketing decisions is how to sell their products to the market. they sell their products in different ways, for example pre-sell, local dealers and wholesalers,. this paper aims at investigating citrus distribution channels and evaluation of factors affecting the choice of each channels by mazandaran ‘s producers. the data was collected by simple random sampling method. 252...

Abstract We present the first calibration of quantum decision theory (QDT) to a dataset binary risky choice. quantitatively account for fraction choice reversals between two repetitions experiment, using probabilistic formulation in simplest form without model assumption or adjustable parameters. The prediction reversal is then refined by introducing heterogeneity makers through their different...
