We value climate amenities by estimating a discrete location choice model for US
households. The utility of each metropolitan statistical area (MSA) depends on location …

The random parameter logit (RPL) model with uncorrelated coefficients is a restrictive
version of the mixed logit model, but it is one of the most frequently used models for …

Background and Research Aims: Agriculture through deforestation is an important threat to
biodiversity conservation in the Congo Basin's tropical forest. The policy challenge is not …

The present study attempts to evaluate an allegedly promising instrument of environmental
policy: public information campaigns for raising awareness, as reflected by enhanced …

Many prediction problems on social networks, from recommendations to anomaly detection,
can be approached by modeling network data as a sequence of relational events and then …

This study extends the finite mixture model proposed by Landry and Liu (2009) to control for
on-site sampling in the context of a system of recreation demand equations. We apply the …

Coastal and estuarine ecosystems, such as mangroves, tidal marshes and seagrass
meadows, provide a range of ecosystem services, but have seen extensive degradation and …

One of the central topics in crime research, and one in which discrete choice modelling has
been relatively recently introduced, is the study of where offenders choose to commit crime …

This study uses a choice experiment to characterize market segments (consumer
preferences heterogeneity) based on three attributes of seafood (mussels) that are affected …

Motivated by the promising performance of alternative estimation methods for mixed logit
models, in this paper we derive, implement, and test minorization-maximization (MM) …
