Modeling industrial location decisions in U.S. counties [PDF]

Given its sound theoretical underpinnings, the Random Utility Maximization-based conditional logit model has been the methodological basis for applied research on industrial location decisions. However, in practice, the implementation of this methodology

Interpreting interaction terms in linear and non-linear models: A cautionary tale [PDF]

Interaction terms are often misinterpreted in the empirical economics literature by assuming that the coefficient of interest represents unconditional marginal changes. I present the correct way to estimate conditional marginal changes in a series of non-

Identification of inferential parameters in the covariate-normalized linear conditional logit model

, 2020
The conditional logit model is a standard workhorse approach to estimating customers' product feature preferences using choice data. Using these models at scale, however, can result in numerical imprecision and optimization failure due to a combination of large-valued covariates and the softmax probability function. Standard machine learning approaches

Transition choice probabilities and welfare in ARUM's [PDF]

We study the descriptive and the normative consequences of price and/or other attributes changes in additive random utility models. We first derive expressions for the transition choice probabilities associated to these changes.

Are there differences between unconditional and conditional demand estimates? implications for future research and policy

Cost Effectiveness and Resource Allocation, 2008
Background Estimations of the demand for healthcare often rely on estimating the conditional probabilities of being ill. Such estimate poses several problems due to sample selectivity problems and an under-reporting of the incidence of illness.
