RprobitB: Bayesian Probit Choice Modeling

Bayes estimation of probit choice models, both in the cross-sectional and panel setting. The package can analyze binary, multivariate, ordered, and ranked choices, and places a special focus on modeling heterogeneity of choice behavior among deciders. The main functionality includes model fitting via Markov chain Monte Carlo methods, tools for convergence diagnostic, choice data simulation, in-sample and out-of-sample choice prediction, and model selection using information criteria and Bayes factors. The latent class model extension facilitates preference-based decider classification, where the number of latent classes can be inferred via the Dirichlet process or a weight-based updating scheme. This allows for flexible modeling of choice behavior without the need to impose structural constraints. For a reference on the method see Oelschlaeger and Bauer (2021) <https://trid.trb.org/view/1759753>.
