A Study of Housing Choice Behavior by Jointing with Discrete Choice Theory and Fuzzy Set Theory

The choice indexes are defined by using the FLS method and then applied to the Logit models. The choice behavior potentially can be designed as a simultaneously choice structure (known as the multinomial Logit model).

The new model named as \"Fuzzy Logit Model\"(FLM) is proposed to be more capable to deal with the problem of qualitative variables in a quantitative-based approach. The accuracy of the new model will be examined by comparing the results from the original models. As a result, we come to the following conclusions: (1) We derive six different linguistic types and five different semantic transformations in single unit housing, and eight different linguistic types in multiple unit housing.
