Software for discrete choice model estimation
From DDL Wiki
Contents |
Train's code
Prof. Ken Train offers his Matlab codes using both maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) and Bayesian approach for mixed logit model.
Lenk's Code
Prof. Peter Lenk offers his Gauss code using Bayesian methods for discrete choice model estimation.
Biogeme
A free software package provided by Prof. Michael Bierlaire using the maximum likelihood estimation for Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) models. It can be used for Multinomial Logit models, Nested logit models and other types of GEV models.
Discrete Choice Model (DCM) Package
A free software package written in Ox (or using OxMetrics) which is a commercial statistics programming language. It is provided by Matias Eklof at Uppsala University and Melvyn Weeks at University of Cambridge. However, the package has not been updated since August 2005.
