Okay little one, let me explain what multinomial logit means.
Do you remember what a logistic regression is? No problem, let me refresh your memory - it's a type of regression in which we try to find a relationship between our independent variables and a binary outcome. But what if we have more than two possible outcomes? That's where a multinomial logit comes in.
Think of it like choosing your favorite ice cream flavor - there are many different flavors to choose from. A multinomial logit helps us understand the probability of choosing a particular flavor when given multiple choices.
For example, let's say you have to choose a color for your new bike. You have three options: red, blue, and green. A multinomial logit could tell us the probability of choosing each color based on different factors, like your age or how much you like each color.
A multinomial logit takes into account many different variables to predict the probability of each possible outcome. It's like having a magic ball that knows which ice cream or bike color you prefer based on your personal preferences.
So there you have it, little one - Multinomial logit helps us understand and predict decisions that involve more than two potential outcomes, using different variables to predict the probabilities of each option.
