Expectation Propagation for the Smoothing Distribution in Dynamic Probit
The smoothing distribution of dynamic probit models with Gaussian state dynamics was recently proved to belong to the unified skew-normal family.... -
Globally and symmetrically identified Bayesian multinomial probit model
Bayesian multinomial probit models have been widely used to analyze discrete choice data. Existing methods have some shortcomings in parameter...

A New Nash-Probit Model for Binary Classification
The Nash equilibrium is used to estimate the parameters of a Probit binary classification model transformed into a multiplayer game. Each training... -
A flexible multiple discrete–continuous probit (MDCP) model: application to analysis of expenditure patterns of domestic tourists in India
Traditional multiple discrete–continuous (MDC) choice models impose tight linkages between consumers’ discrete choice and the continuous consumption...
