Abstract

Kenneth Train .
JEL #: C15, C25
Keywords: mixed logit, Halton
The simulation variance in the estimation of mixed logit parameters is found, in our application, to be lower with 100 Halton draws than with 1000 random draws. This finding confirms Bhat's (1999a) results and implies significant reduction in run times for mixed logit estimation. Further investigation is needed to assure that the result is not quixotic or masking other issues.
