Modeling preference heterogeneity in discrete choice models of product differentiation
remains computationally challenging. I derive a new method for estimating preference …

In this paper, we consider how rich sources of information on consumer choice can help to
identify demand parameters in a widely used class of differentiated products demand …

In this paper, we consider how rich sources of information on consumer choice can help to
identify demand parameters in a widely used class of differentiated products demand …

In this chapter, we describe how random utility maximization (RUM) discrete choice models
are used to estimate the demand for commodity attributes in quality-differentiated goods …

This dissertation consists of three chapters on demand estimation using discrete and
discrete/continuous choice models. In all papers I address the identification of heterogeneity …

This paper proposes an algorithm to estimate dynamic discrete choice models using
aggregate market share data. The algorithm achieves a computational advantage by …

In this article, we consider a class of discrete choice models in which consumers care about
a finite set of product characteristics. These models have been used extensively in the …

This paper develops a methodology to uncover consumer preferences from a discrete-
choice demand model of product differentiation using plant-level data. When prices and …

We extend BLP's aggregate discrete-choice model of product differentiation to create more
flexibility in the price functional form. We apply a Box-Cox specification, which relaxes the …

The study of differentiated-products markets is a central part of empirical industrial
organization. Questions regarding market power, mergers, innovation, and valuation of new …
