Fast computation algorithm for the random consideration set model

  • Lee, Younghwan

Abstract

This paper proposes a fast and reliable computation algorithm for the random consideration set model. A simple and numerically tractable representation of the model is developed to reduce the computational burden. I show that the new algorithm outperforms existing methods in terms of accuracy and speed.
