Nowadays, there are so many types of software which can do modeling. but , what are the best and efficient software or packages that can manage modeling problems specifically for Transport Mode choice Modeling.
is it stata, R, biogeme, TransCAD, .............?
Any help is appreciated.
Dear colleague, the choice of the software is not important, however, the most important thing is linked to the technique which you want to apply and the objectives. For example, Stata is a good software for the panel data analysis, also, R...
For the case of the logit models, I recommend the use of the STATA software.
The choice of the software depend on your mastery of programming language. To make the best use of statistical packages such as R and Python you should be well-versed in programming.
On STATA you already have written command. With the command "mlogit" on Stata you can easily generate the regression results you need. You can follow up with "margins" to get the marginal effects for further analysis.
Takesh Luckho , thank you for your contribution. can i have additional question for you,please. How can we change wide format into long format in STATA?
Mollalign Yizengaw Mebrat : Use the command Reshape. Search on the command help on STATA. All the best..
Takesh Luckho : Reshaping for alternative invariant variables is simple. I know how to reshape very-well using R. but, in STATA, I don't know how to reshape both alternative variant and invariant variables. Maybe, if you have a short method to make it, I am happy. Anyways, thank you for your effort. I appreciate it.
I strongly recommend STATA for you. It is vast and flexible particularly if you have a sound knowledge and skills of handling the software.
