Book Multinomial Probit

Download or read book Multinomial Probit written by Carlos Daganzo and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 1979-12-28 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Multinomial Probit: The Theory and Its Application to Demand Forecasting covers the theoretical and practical aspects of the multinomial probit (MNP) model and its relation to other discrete choice models. This text is divided into five chapters and begins with an overview of the disaggregate demand modeling in the transportation field. The subsequent chapters examine the computational aspects of the maximum-likelihood estimation and the statistical aspects of MNP model calibration. These chapters specifically describe the properties of the log-likelihood function and the statistical properties of MNP estimators. These topics are followed by a discussion of the mechanical aspects of the MNP model. The closing chapter examines the errors in the estimation of the true parameter value due to lack of data and how these errors propagate to the final prediction. This book will prove useful to econometricians, engineers, and applied mathematicians.

Book Linear Probability  Logit  and Probit Models

Download or read book Linear Probability Logit and Probit Models written by John H. Aldrich and published by SAGE. This book was released on 1984-11 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After showing why ordinary regression analysis is not appropriate for investigating dichotomous or otherwise 'limited' dependent variables, this volume examines three techniques which are well suited for such data. It reviews the linear probability model and discusses alternative specifications of non-linear models.

Book Multinomial Probit Model Estimation

Download or read book Multinomial Probit Model Estimation written by and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The multinomial probit (MNP) model offers a rather general and flexible framework for the analysis of discrete choices obtained from panel data and the specification of models with general error structures. However, this flexibility of specification has come at a relatively high price in terms of difficulty of computing maximum likelihood estimates ofthe model parameters and evaluating the associated choice function. This paper presents a new procedure for the estimation of MNP models, motivated primarily by the advances that have taken place in terms of computing environments and capabilities. the procedure derives its efficiency from execution in a parallel computing environment (CRAY YMP/8) and its accuracy from the use of better (but otherwise more computationally intensive) mathematical procedures. The paper also discusses and compares alternative nonlinear optimization procedures to search for the parameter values that maximize the likelihood function, in connection with Monte Carlo evaluation of the likelihood of each observation. The results are also compared to those obtained using the Clark approximation to evaluate the choice probabilities.

Book Discrete Choice Methods with Simulation

Download or read book Discrete Choice Methods with Simulation written by Kenneth Train and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2009-07-06 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes the new generation of discrete choice methods, focusing on the many advances that are made possible by simulation. Researchers use these statistical methods to examine the choices that consumers, households, firms, and other agents make. Each of the major models is covered: logit, generalized extreme value, or GEV (including nested and cross-nested logits), probit, and mixed logit, plus a variety of specifications that build on these basics. Simulation-assisted estimation procedures are investigated and compared, including maximum stimulated likelihood, method of simulated moments, and method of simulated scores. Procedures for drawing from densities are described, including variance reduction techniques such as anithetics and Halton draws. Recent advances in Bayesian procedures are explored, including the use of the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm and its variant Gibbs sampling. The second edition adds chapters on endogeneity and expectation-maximization (EM) algorithms. No other book incorporates all these fields, which have arisen in the past 25 years. The procedures are applicable in many fields, including energy, transportation, environmental studies, health, labor, and marketing.
