Bayesian analysis of multivariate nominal measures using multivariate multinomial probit models [PDF]

open access: yesComputational Statistics & Data Analysis, 2008
The multinomial probit model has emerged as a useful framework for modeling nominal categorical data, but extending such models to multivariate measures presents computational challenges. Following a Bayesian paradigm, we use a Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method to analyze multivariate nominal measures through multivariate multinomial probit models.
