MNP: R package for fitting the multinomial probit model

K Imai, DA Van Dyk - Journal of Statistical Software, 2005 - jstatsoft.org
MNP is a publicly available R package that fits the Bayesian multinomial probit model via
Markov chain Monte Carlo. The multinomial probit model is often used to analyze the …

Alternative computational approaches to inference in the multinomial probit model

J Geweke, M Keane, D Runkle - The review of economics and statistics, 1994 - JSTOR
This research compares several approaches to inference in the multinomial probit model,
based on two Monte Carlo experiments for a seven choice model. The methods compared …

Simulation evaluation of emerging estimation techniques for multinomial probit models

PN Patil, SK Dubey, AR Pinjari, E Cherchi… - Journal of choice …, 2017 - Elsevier
A simulation evaluation is presented to compare alternative estimation techniques for a five-
alternative multinomial probit (MNP) model with random parameters, including cross …

An exact likelihood analysis of the multinomial probit model

R McCulloch, PE Rossi - Journal of Econometrics, 1994 - Elsevier
We develop new methods for conducting a finite sample, likelihood-based analysis of the
multinomial probit model. Using a variant of the Gibbs sampler, an algorithm is developed to …

[图书][B] Bayesian analysis of the multinomial probit model

RE McCulloch, PE Rossi - 2000 - books.google.com
In this chapter, we discuss Bayesian analysis of the multinomial probit model (MNP) using
Markov chain Monte Carlo methods. Although the MNP model has been in the econometrics …

The trace restriction: An alternative identification strategy for the Bayesian multinomial probit model

LF Burgette, EV Nordheim - Journal of Business & Economic …, 2012 - Taylor & Francis
Previous authors have made Bayesian multinomial probit models identifiable by fixing a
parameter on the main diagonal of the covariance matrix. The choice of which element one …

A Bayesian analysis of the multinomial probit model using marginal data augmentation

K Imai, DA Van Dyk - Journal of econometrics, 2005 - Elsevier
We introduce a set of new Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithms for Bayesian analysis of the
multinomial probit model. Our Bayesian representation of the model places a new, and …

Fast variational Bayes methods for multinomial probit models

R Loaiza-Maya, D Nibbering - Journal of Business & Economic …, 2023 - Taylor & Francis
The multinomial probit model is often used to analyze choice behavior. However, estimation
with existing Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods is computationally costly, which …

[PDF][PDF] Approximation and simulation of the multinomial probit model: an analysis of covariance matrix estimation

P Ruud - Department of Economics, Berkeley, 1996 - Citeseer
The multinomial probit (MNP) model is a primary application for combining simulation with
estimation. Indeed, McFadden (1989) featured the MNP model in his seminal paper. As …

A Bayesian mixed logit–probit model for multinomial choice

M Burda, M Harding, J Hausman - Journal of econometrics, 2008 - Elsevier
In this paper, we introduce a new flexible mixed model for multinomial discrete choice where
the key individual-and alternative-specific parameters of interest are allowed to follow an …
