Seminario “Bayesian sample selection model with multinomial endogenous switching for non-randomly missing travel behavior outcomes”

Expone: 

Hajime Watanabe. JSPS research fellow at the University of Tokyo, Japan

The sample selection modeling approach has been applied to describe unobserved dependency between residential location choice and travel behavior due to residential self-selection. Sample selection models describe a missing data mechanism in which expected travel behavior outcomes in residential locations are incidentally truncated by actual residential location choice, referred to as endogenous switching. This study proposes a general sample selection modeling framework with a multinomial endogenous switching. The proposed model has a large-scale open-form structure, and this study thus employs an efficient MCMC algorithm according to the model structure for the parameter estimation. The proposed model can be a useful tool for providing insights into coordination between land use and transportation planning.
