This paper presents an application of advanced econometric techniques to railway passenger choices in the context of revenue management. Three modeling approaches; multinomial logit, latent class, and mixed logit models are applied to ticket purchase timing decisions and to three market...

Maximum simulated likelihood (MSL) procedure is generally adopted in discrete choice analysis to solve complex models without closed mathematical formulation. This procedure differs from the maximum likelihood simply because simulated probabilities are inserted into the Log-Likelihood (LL)...
