Bimodal/multimodal distribution of mixed logit random coefficients
Posted: 07 Oct 2023, 16:22
Hi!
In Hess and Palma (2019) on page 15, it is shown how to make the random coefficients in a mixed logit follow a negative Lognormal distribution, a symmetrical Triangular distribution and a Johnson SB distribution, using Apollo. Is it also possible to make them follow a bimodal or multimodal distribution? How would that look?
