Abstract.  In this article, I provide an illustrative, step-by-step implementation of the expectation–maximization algorithm for the nonparametric estimation of mixed logit models. In particular, the proposed routine allows users to fit straight-forwardly latent-class logit models with an increasing number of mass points so as to approximate the unobserved structure of the mixing distribution.
