Discrete Choice Methods with Simulation

Discrete Choice Methods with Simulation

Train Kenneth E.

Cambridge University Press
2009
pokkari
This book describes the new generation of discrete choice methods, focusing on the many advances that are made possible by simulation. Researchers use these statistical methods to examine the choices that consumers, households, firms, and other agents make. Each of the major models is covered: logit, generalized extreme value, or GEV (including nested and cross-nested logits), probit, and mixed logit, plus a variety of specifications that build on these basics. Recent advances in Bayesian procedures are explored, including the use of the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm and its variant Gibbs sampling. This second edition adds chapters on endogeneity and expectation-maximization (EM) algorithms. No other book incorporates all these fields, which have arisen in the past 25 years. The procedures are applicable in many fields, including energy, transportation, environmental studies, health, labor, and marketing.

Foundations of Stated Preference Elicitation

Foundations of Stated Preference Elicitation

Moshe Ben-Akiva; Daniel McFadden; Kenneth Train

now publishers Inc
2019
nidottu
Foundations of Stated Preferences Elicitation provides the reader with stated preference data collection methods, discrete choice models, and statistical analysis tools that can be used to forecast demand and assess welfare impacts for new or modified products or services in real markets, and summarize the conditions under which the reliability of these methods has been demonstrated or can be tested. One focus is the collection of preference and related data from consumer responses in hypothetical choice experiments, particularly conjoint analysis methods that have proven useful in market research. Another is the economic theory and statistical analysis of choice behavior, revealed or stated, and an economic framework for forecasting market demand and measuring consumer welfare. The treatment is informed by and benefits from experiments on perceptions and decision-making behavior in cognitive science and behavioral economics, and includes methods that can accommodate features of consumer choice that impact forecast reliability such as anchoring, adaptation to the status quo, and sensitivity to context. However, the authors' emphasis is on forecasting tools developed from traditional economic consumer theory and does not touch on the implications of behavioral consumer theory for demand forecasting.

In this book, Dhirananda and Viryabodhi offer clear commentaries and exercises that bring the slogans to life. With practice, you shift from a limited, self-centred view to feeling more connected and liberated, and more able to be of benefit to others.'This book is precious. Read it carefully to discover a brilliant map for training your mind and heart that is immediately applicable to all of life's circumstances. If things are going well, be generous and share your good fortune. If things are difficult, use this as an opportunity for empathy for others suffering in similar ways. Dhirananda and Viryabodhi have done a brilliant job of translating the profound and compassionate slogans into immediately accessible and practical teachings for the modern world.'Vidyamala Burch OBE, founder of the Breathworks Foundation and author of Living Well with Pain and Illness, Mindfulness for Health, and Mindfulness for Women'This is a great book for anyone who wants to know how to practise the Dharma in every moment of their life. The authors invite us to change our habitual attitudes to ones in which we treat whatever happens to us as gifts - opportunities to grow spiritually.'Ratnaguna, author of The Art of Reflection and Great Faith, Great Wisdom'The pithy slogans of the Tibetan mind-training tradition challenge us to face up to our self-centredness and to recognize how it perpetuates our suffering. Drawing on several traditional commentaries, the authors show how this ancient wisdom remains pertinent to today's existential challenges.'Nagapriya, author of The Promise of a Sacred World: Shinran's Teaching of Other Power

"Doug, can you see where you're going in this rain?" Barbara Dawson peered through the windshield. "It's not that bad. I've driven this road a million times." Douglas Dawson patted her hand to reassure her. "Did you enjoy yourself tonight, Barb? I know you're disappointed Jim and Sarah couldn't come." "I still had a good time," she answered. The lightning flashed again. Followed immediately by a thunderous boom. Doug's night vision momentarily vanished. "That was close I could feel the wheel shake." "Maybe we should pull over." "We can't. There isn't any shoulder." More lightning sizzled through the humid air, and the thunder clapped simultaneously. "I don't feel good about this. I've never liked this hill." "We'll be home soon." Once again the lightning exploded. The thunder reverberated and shook the small car. "That was too close for comfort." Douglas pointed. "Are those headlights on the..."

He hadn't called her Tarry since they were little kids. He turned to leave, and she followed him to the door and leaned against it after he left. He hurried to the elevator because he didn't want anyone to see him crying. "Shoot Why didn't I tell him to stay?" She threw open the door and sprinted after him, but it was too late. The elevator door closed. "Open Come on open " She stabbed the button repeatedly.hen it didn't, she ran back to her room and fell on the bed. She wept for several minutes and then got off the bed.

On the Trail of the Yellow Tiger

On the Trail of the Yellow Tiger

Kenneth M. Swope

University of Nebraska Press
2018
sidottu
The Manchu Qing victory over the Chinese Ming Dynasty in the mid-seventeenth century was one of the most surprising and traumatic developments in China’s long history. In the last year of the Ming, the southwest region of China became the base of operations for the notorious leader Zhang Xianzhong (1605–47), a peasant rebel known as the Yellow Tiger. Zhang’s systematic reign of terror allegedly resulted in the deaths of at least one-sixth of the population of the entire Sichuan province in just two years. The rich surviving source record, however, indicates that much of the destruction took place well after Zhang’s death in 1647 and can be attributed to independent warlords, marauding bandits, the various Ming and Qing armies vying for control of the empire, and natural disasters. On the Trail of the Yellow Tiger is the first Western study to examine in detail the aftermath of the Qing conquest by focusing on the social and demographic effects of the Ming-Qing transition. By integrating the modern techniques of trauma and memory studies into the military and social history of the transition, Kenneth M. Swope adds a crucial piece to the broader puzzle of dynastic collapse and reconstruction. He also considers the Ming-Qing transition in light of contemporary conflicts around the globe, offering a comparative military history that engages with the universal connections between war and society.

Train is an 18-year-old black caddy at an exclusive L.A. country club. He is a golf prodigy, but the year is 1953 and there is no such thing as a black golf prodigy. Nevertheless, Train draws the interest of Miller Packard, a gambler whose smiling, distracted air earned him the nickname "the Mile Away Man." Packard's easy manner hides a proclivity for violence, and he remains an enigma to Train even months later when they are winning high stakes matches against hustlers throughout the country. Packard is also drawn to Norah Still, a beautiful woman scarred in a hideous crime, a woman who finds Packard's tendency toward violence both alluring and frightening. In the ensuing triangular relationship kindness is never far from cruelty. In Train, National Book Award-winning Pete Dexter creates a startling, irresistibly readable book that crackles with suspense and the live-wire voices of its characters.
