Abstract
AbstractIn this study, we consider parametric binary choice models from the perspective of information geometry. The set of models is a dually flat manifold with dual connections, naturally derived from the Fisher information metric. Under the dual connections, the canonical divergence and the Kullback–Leibler divergence of the binary choice model coincide if and only if the model is a logit model.
