Σύνοψη	The Conditional Logit Model, introduced by Daniel McFadden in 1974, is a discrete-choice econometric model designed to explain an individual's selection among a finite set of mutually exclusive alternatives. Unlike multinomial logit, it uses covariates that vary across alternatives — such as price, travel time, or product attributes — making it ideally suited for revealed-preference studies in transportation, marketing, and labor economics.	The Nested Logit model is a discrete choice framework that groups mutually exclusive alternatives into hierarchical nests, allowing correlated unobserved utilities within each nest while maintaining independence across nests. Introduced formally by Ben-Akiva and Lerman (1985) and grounded in McFadden's Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) theory, it extends the standard Multinomial Logit by relaxing the restrictive Independence of Irrelevant Alternatives assumption within predefined groups of similar alternatives.
