Location, location, location choice models
… competing in the race for urban space. Location choice models can help to shine a light on these motivations by providing insights on agents' location preferences. They are also the building blocks of more comprehensive urban models and simulations that can help navigate urban complexity. This …

Neural-embedded discrete choice models
… value of integrating theory-based discrete choice models (DCM) and data-driven neural networks. How to benefit from the strengths of both is the overarching question. I propose hybrid structures and strategies to flexibly represent taste heterogeneity, reduce potential biases, and improve …

Customer Choice Models in Emerging Retail Markets
<p>In this dissertaion we discuss customer choice and company decisions in three emerging retail settings. We first consider subscription box services in which a provider selects the assortment of products to include in the box by taking into account the customer's preferences. Customers interested …

Ranked personalized recommendations using discrete choice models
… a large subset of the so called Random Utility Models (RUM). Building on the insight from the single ranking case, we handle the multiple ranking scenario using a mixture of Multi-Nomial Logit models. We then provide a theoretical illustration of the difficulty in learning models from this …

Behaviorally-Informed Discrete Choice Models in Operations Management
This thesis advances choice-based Revenue Management by integrating behavioral realism into analytical models of pricing and assortment optimization. Traditional discrete choice models (DCMs) simplify customer behavior by assuming that greater variety always increases purchase likelihood, that …

Online discrete choice models : applications in smart mobility
Discrete choice models have been widely applied in different fields to better understand behavior and forecast market shares. Because of their ability to capture taste heterogeneity, logit mixture models have gained increasing interest among researchers and practitioners. However, since the …

Tractable multi-product pricing under discrete choice models
… three important, more general families of demand models. Generalized attraction (GA) models broaden the range of nonlinear responses to changes in price. We propose a reformulation of the pricing problem over demands (instead of prices) which is convex. We show that the constrained problem under …

Use of discrete choice models with recommender systems
… dissertation, we investigate the use of discrete choice models as a radically new technique for giving personalized recommendations. Discrete choice modeling allows the integration of item and user specific data as well as contextual information that may be crucial in some applications. By giving …

Modelling choice set formation in discrete choice models
Thesis (Ph. D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Civil Engineering, 1989.

Endogeneity and Sampling of Alternatives in Spatial Choice Models
… are two key requirements of practical spatial choice models. The omission of attributes causes endogeneity when the unobserved variables are correlated with the measured variables, precluding the consistent estimation of the model parameters. The consistent estimation while sampling …

Assortment and Pricing Optimisation under non-conventional customer choice models
… that customers follow a certain model of choice. Most studied models satisfy the following property: whenever the offered set is enlarged, then the probability of selecting a specific product decreases. This property is called regularity in the literature. However, customer behaviour often …

Learning Carrier Choice Models for Load Pricing in Digital Freight Platforms
With the expansion of digital commerce and growth of the economy, the freight transportation scene has adapted to reflect such changes. Digital freight platforms, acting an intermediary between shippers and carriers, have gained traction to modernize the process and leverage technology to improve …

Empirical Studies of Discrete Choice Models in Health, Fertility, and Voting
Almost everything that we do involves a choice. In recent years there has been a growing interest in the development and application of quantitative statistical methods to study choices made by individuals with the purpose of gaining a better understanding of how choices are made and also to …

Assortment and inventory optimization : from predictive choice models to near-optimal algorithms
… is that designing an accurate predictive choice model generally comes at the detriment of efficient algorithms, which can prescribe near-optimal decisions. This thesis attempts to resolve this disconnect in the context of assortment and inventory optimization, through theoretical and …
