Abstract: We introduce a new class of methods and inference techniques for infinite mixtures of Inverse Gaussian, Multinomial Probit and Exponential Regression, models that belong to the widely ...

A rich class of parametric models is proposed for discrete choice data based on the scale mixture of multivariate normal distributions. The multinomial probit model is a special case in the class. The ...

A typical assumption of electoral models of party competition is that parties adopt policy positions so as to maximize expected vote share. Here we use Euro-barometer survey data and European ...
