Estimating Desirable Cattle Traits Using Latent Class and Mixed Logit Models: A Choice Modeling Application to the U.S. Grass-Fed Beef Industry
… examines the preferences for cattle traits using mixed logit and latent class models. Choice experiment data from a 2013 mail survey of 1,052 U.S. grass-fed beef producers were used. The findings indicate that grass-fed beef producers generally preferred lower-priced, heavy animals that were …

Using a Bayesian model for bankruptcy prediction : a comparative approach
… models are assessed- Bayesian, Hazard and Mixed Logit. A salient feature of the study is that the analysis includes both parametric and nonparametric bankruptcy prediction models. A sample of firms from Lynn M. LoPucki Bankruptcy Research Database in the U. S. was used to evaluate the …

Modeling preferences for innovative modes and services : a case study in Lisbon
… of innovative modes and services -- nested logit models and mixed logit models. The main attributes in the systematic utilities include natural logarithm of travel time and cost, schedule delay, size variables for unequal departure time intervals, and inertia to revealed preferences (RP) …

Modeling airline passenger choice : passenger preference for schedule in the passenger origin-destination simulator (PODS)
… the implementation of more flexible models like mixed logit models. Second, the increasing competition of low-cost new entrant airlines has put great pressure on pricing practices of traditional network carriers. This increasing competition has also compelled these carriers to focus on their …

Rural internship job preferences of final year medical students in South Africa: a discrete choice experiment
… was conducted, the results effects coded, and mixed logit models applied. The final sample size was 193 (86,16% of the class), majority female 130 (66.33%), with urban origins 176 (89.80%), unmarried 183 (93.37%) and without children 193 (98.47%). Most had undergraduate rural medicine exposure …

Conditional, Structural and Unobserved Heterogeneity: three essays on preference heterogeneity in the design of financial incentives to increase weight loss program reach
… heterogeneity is popularly modelled using the mixed logit model, so called because it is a mixture of standard conditional logit models. Although the mixed logit model can, in theory, approximate any random utility model with an appropriate mixing distribution, there is little guidance on how …

Farmer Preferences for Attributes of Conservation Agriculture in Eastern Uganda
… a choice experiment study are analyzed with a mixed logit model to determine farmers' willingness to pay for increases in maize yield, reductions in erosion, and reductions in land preparation labor requirements. It finds that farmers have a statistically significant willingness to pay for …

An investigation of heterogeneous commuting mode choices through an Early Stopping Bayesian Data Assimilation approach
… samples. We carry out the development using the Mixed-Logit as the main behaviour model, which is a remarkably versatile tool in revealing insights into inter and intra-individual behavioural heterogeneity. ESBDA makes it possible for existing models to learn from small samples of travellers who …

Consumer Willingness-to-pay for Concord Grape Juice Treated by High-pressure Processing and Pulsed Electric Field
… designing a discrete choice model experiment. Mixed logit models and Latent-class logit models are used to estimate consumers’ willingness to pay toward different attributes including processing technology for the productions of Concord grape juice. We found that consumers tend to pay more for …

Post-secondary Students' Travel Behavior through the Lens of Urban and Rural Contexts
… choice analysis estimates both RP–SP multinomial logit (MNL) and RP–SP mixed logit models, enabling the combination of actual revealed preference data with stated preference scenarios while also capturing unobserved taste heterogeneity across individuals. The MNL model provides a baseline …

Willingness to Pay for Safer Bathing Water in Poland: A Discrete Choice Experiment linked to Benefit-Cost Analysis
… policy attributes, which was analysed using a mixed logit model in preference space to capture unobserved preference heterogeneity. We find that households valued both policy attributes positively, with diminishing marginal utility across their levels. WTP values for respondents classified as …

Understanding consumers' ornamental plant preferences for disease-free and water conservation labels
… certification labels. The results of the mixed logit models show consumers are willing to pay a premium for plants certified as disease-free and/or produced with water conservation practices. The results strongly suggest producers can recoup some of the costs of implementing water …

The planning and analysis implications of automated data collection systems : rail transit OD matrix inference and path choice modeling examples
… study is of rail path choice, which employs the Logit and Mixed Logit models to examine revealed public transit riders' travel behavior based on the inferred OD matrix and the transit network attributes. This study is based on two data sources: the rail trip OD matrix inferred in the first case …

Modeling Intercity Mode Choice and Airport Choice in the United States
… at nation-level in the United States. Nested and mixed logit models were developed to study national-level intercity transportation in the United States. A separate General Aviation airport choice model to estimates General Aviation person-trips and number of aircraft operations though more than …

ANALYSIS OF ACTIVITY CHOICE: THE ROLE OF ACTIVITY ATTRIBUTES AND INDIVIDUAL SCHEDULES
… horizons and activity choice are performed by mixed logit models. The model results reveal the significant relationships between socio-demographics, temporal characteristics, travel, and characteristics of the schedules on activity choice. The findings of these models could be integrated in the …

Three papers on the behavior modeling of the shrimp fishermen in the Gulf of Mexico
… FL, LAM, and TX. For each area a conditional logit and mixed logit based on Random Utility Model are run to analyze the influence of fishermen’s past choice decision on current choice (state dependence), and the fishermen’s difference in preferences (preference heterogeneity). The results show …

Residential Preference at Transit-oriented Development: A Visual Choice Experiment
… to elicit residential preference: a multinomial logit model, a mixed logit model, and a latent class model. The results indicated the presence of preference heterogeneity and the emergence of four lifestyle classes that could explain and predict residential preference patterns. People with …

Consumer Choice of Hotel Experiences: The Effects of Cognitive, Affective, and Sensory Attributes
… predict consumer hotel choice using multinomial logit (MNL) and random parameter (or mixed) logit (RPL) models. For choice experiments, the main objectives are to determine the choice attributes and attribute levels to be used for the choice modeling and to create an optimal choice design. I used …

Tractable multi-product pricing under discrete choice models
… of the prices under the basic multinomial logit (MNL) demand model. Linear constraints can induce a non-convex feasible region. Nevertheless, we show how to efficiently solve the pricing problem under three important, more general families of demand models. Generalized attraction (GA) …
