This paper describes and implements three computationally attractive procedures for nonparametric estimation of mixing distributions in discrete choice models. The procedures are specic types of the well known EM (Expectation-Maximization) algorithm based on three dierent ways of approximating...

Vacation travel in the USA, which constitutes about 25% of all long-distance travel, has been increasing consistently over the past two decades and warrants careful attention in the context of regional and statewide transportation air quality planning and policy analysis, as well as tourism...

This paper compares different types of simulated draws over a range of number of draws in generating Bayesian efficient designs for stated choice (SC) studies. The paper examines how closely pseudo Monte Carlo, quasi Monte Carlo and Gaussian quadrature methods are able to replicate the true...

We show how to combine statistically efficient ways to design discrete choice experiments based on random utility theory with new ways of collecting additional information that can be used to expand the amount of available choice information for modeling the choices of individual decision...
