In a classical conjoint choice experiment, respondents choose one profile from each choice set that has to be evaluated. However, in real life the respondent does not always make a choice: often he/she does not prefer any of the alternatives offered. Therefore, including a no-choice option in a...

The authors propose a fast and efficient algorithm for constructing D-optimal conjoint choice designs for mixed logit models in the presence of respondent heterogeneity. With this new algorithm, the construction of semi-Bayesian D-optimal mixed logit designs with large numbers of attributes and...

Recently, Kessels et al. (2006) developed a way to produce Bayesian G- and V-optimal designs for the multinomial logitmodel. These designs allow for precise response predictions which is the goal of conjoint choice experiments. The authors showed that the G- and V- optimality criteria outperform...

In this paper, we propose an efficient individually adapted sequential Bayesian approach for constructing conjoint choice experiments. It uses Bayesian updating, a Bayesian analysis and a Bayesian design criterion for generating choice-set-designs for each individual respondent based on previous...

Consumer products and services can often be described as mixtures of ingredients. Examples are the mixture of ingredients in a cocktail and the mixture of different components of waiting time (e.g., in-vehicle and out-of-vehicle travel time) in a transportation setting. Choice experiments may...
