Accounting for Estimation Optimality Criteria in Simulated Annealing
Goovaerts, Pierre - 1998
This paper presents both estimation and simulation as optimization problems that differ in the optimization criteria …, minimization of a local expected loss for estimation and reproduction of global statistics (semivariogram, histogram) for … simulation ignoring local constraints, but not as accurate as E-type estimation. Flow simulation results show that accounting for …

External Validity of Hypothetical Surveys and Laboratory Experiments
Chang, Jae Bong; Lusk, Jayson L.; Norwood, F. Bailey - 2008
We compare the ability of three preference elicitation methods (hypothetical choices, non-hypothetical choices, and non-hypothetical rankings) and three discrete-choice econometric models (the multinomial logit, the independent availability logit, and the random parameter logit) to predict...
