Discrete choice models are constantly in evolution in the literature. Since they enable to capture wide range of situations, they have been widely used by researchers and also practitioners in several fields of applications including econometrics and trans ...

The scores returned by support vector machines are often used as a confidence measures in the classification of new examples. However, there is no theoretical argument sustaining this practice. Thus, when classification uncertainty has to be assessed, it i ...
BIOGEME is a free software package for estimating by maximum likelihood a broad range of random utility models. It can estimate particularly Multivariate Extreme Value (MEV) models including the logit model, the nested logit model, the cross-nested logit m ...
Predicting species distribution is of fundamental importance for ecology and conservation. However, distribution models are usually established for only one region and it is unknown whether they can be transferred to other geographical regions. We studied ...
An important problem in logistic regression modeling is the existence of the maximum likelihood estimators. In particular, when the sample size is small, the maximum likelihood estimator of the regression parameters does not exist if the data are completel ...
We outline how modern likelihood theory, which provides essentially exact inferences in a variety of parametric statistical problems, may routinely be applied in practice. Although the likelihood procedures are based on analytical asymptotic approximations ...
When searching for loci possibly under selection in the genome, an alternative to population genetics theoretical models is to establish allele distribution models for each locus to directly correlate allelic frequencies and environmental variables like pr ...
To study factors associated with anemia and its effect on survival in HIV-infected persons treated with modern combined antiretroviral therapy (cART), we characterized the prevalence of anemia in the Veterans Aging Cohort Study (VACS) and used a candidate ...
The goal of the d-Rank project is to study rank aggregation in scientific publication databases. In our work we focus in particular on document ranking in the domain of particle physics and we work with the collection of CERN publications called the CERN D ...
