Abstract We investigate the relevance of dynamic variables that reflect purchase history a household as independent in multicategory choice models. To this end, we estimate both homogeneous and finite mixture variants multivariate logit model. consider two types variables. Variables first type, which previous publications on models have ignored, are exponentially smoothed category purchases, si...

Consider-then-choose models, borne out by empirical literature in marketing and psychology, explain that customers choose among alternatives two phases, first screening products to decide which consider then ranking them. In this paper, we develop a dynamic programming framework study the computational aspects of assortment optimization under consider-then-choose premises. Although nonparametri...
