BIOGEME Users Guide

Biogeme is an open source freeware designed for the estimation of discrete choice models. Two versions are now available. They wear the name of the piece of software that has been used for the parsing of the model file.

  • Bison Biogeme is the traditional version, based on model specification files with the .mod extension.
  • Python Biogeme is a more recent version, allowing to estimate a wider variety of models.
The documentation of the two versions can be accessed with the following links.
