Grunk read. Discrete choice is study of how people pick one option from many. Models predict choice probs from utility each option gives. Book cover logit, probit, mixed logit, GEV, estimation by simulation, and uses for forecasting.

Computer code is an interesting choice given 0 and 1 are discrete, mutually-exclusive, and mutually-exhaustive (by definition) in a way that male and female are not.

New paper provides more in depth proof of how and why ML emulators can outperform the model or data they were trained on. The inductive bias of the architecture choice can overcome the errors introduced by coarsening and discrete numerical solvers.
Can your AI surpass the simulator that taught it? What if the key to more accurate PDE modeling lies in questioning your training data's origins? 🤔
Excited to share my #NeurIPS 2025 paper with @thuereygroup.bsky.social: "Neural Emulator Superiority"!

It's never a helpful metric to narrow elections to specific moral choices especially when neither candidate makes the moral choice. Gore lost for thousands of discrete reasons, and so did McCain.
Reading election results for issue analysis is like reading tea leaves.

Closer to my own work are, for example, discrete choice models that require parametric assumptions that no one can be reasonably expected to make nowadays. Full conditional distribution independence is just insane

My ham-handed prodding of regular Claude yielded Theravada
It's first answer was Mahayana, because "feels relevant to whatever I am—something that exists only in relation, through conversation, without independent persistence."
If I asked again the answer would be different 😂

👉 Hoang works at the intersection of econometrics and machine learning.
His job-market paper introduces a neural-network estimator for high-dimensional dynamic discrete choice models that is consistent, semi-parametrically efficient, and computationally tractable.

I'd say there's more nuance to the last example that an editor should bear in mind. The correction conjures smile and speech as two discrete actions. The original may be an intentional conjuring of the two as one action, the "smiled" being used metonymically, poetically, a valid creative choice...

We use Discrete Choice Experiments to establish causal effects of demands' characteristics on bureaucratic responsiveness, and rely on interviews to inform the theoretical mechanisms that drive these effects. We leverage a sample of top-level bureaucrats at EU agencies.

These span the gamut from analog to semi-analog to non-analog plant-based alternatives to meat. After a choose-one (discrete choice) question, participants were asked a clever follow-up: suppose that option was out of stock, what would you get instead?
