Locally D-Optimal Design for Rank-Order Nested Logit Mode

n contrast to the classical discrete choice experiment, the respondent in a rank-order discrete choice experiment, is asked to rank a number of alternatives instead of the preferred one. In this paper, we study the information matrix of a rank-order nested multinomial logit model (RO.NMNL) and introduce local D -optimality criterion, then we obtain Locally D-optimal design for RO.NMNL models in the discrete choice experiment.
