Abstract

Based on market basket data, multicategory purchase incidence models analyze demand interdependencies between product categories. We propose a finite mixture multivariate logit model to derive segment-specific intercategory effects of market basket purchase. Under the assumption that only a fraction of intercategory effects are significant, we exclude irrelevant effects by variable selection. ...

Based on market basket data, multicategory purchase incidence models analyze demand interdependencies between product categories. We propose a finite mixture multivariate logit model to derive segment-specific intercategory effects of market basket purchase. Under the assumption that only a fraction of intercategory effects are significant, we exclude irrelevant effects by variable selection. This leads to a detailed description of consumers' shopping behavior that varies over segments not only w.r.t. parameters' values but also w.r.t. included interaction effects. We find that a homogeneous model would overestimate the intensity of interaction between product categories.
