Abstract
The surge in e-commerce during the past decade has led to dramatic changes in consumer shopping behaviour. The study applies two Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) family models to investigate households' e-shopping demands. The study proposes a model structure to jointly model ordinal-based choice behaviour with choice-makers' latent class membership. Introducing latent class structure with the OGEV formulation accounts for the relationship between choice-makers heterogeneous preferential groups and their ordinal choice outcomes. Furthermore, the study also applies the Ordered General Extreme Value (OGEV)-Negative Binomial (NB) model, capturing the interplay between consumers' in-store shopping demands and online shopping behaviour. The RUM principle inherited within the OGEV-NB model allows econometric valuation of in-store shopping activity explicitly considering households' e-shopping demands. Both models are empirically estimated using a dataset collected in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), Canada. The empirical findings and behavioural implications are also discussed. • The study proposes a GEV model to jointly model ordinal-based choice behaviour with latent class membership. • The formulation accounts for choice-makers heterogeneous preferential groups and their ordinal-in-nature choice outcomes. • The latent class & OGEV model is applied to households' e-shopping demands. • The study also applies the OGEV-NB model, capturing consumers' in-store shopping demands and online shopping behaviour. • The RUM principle inherited within the OGEV-NB model allows explicit econometric valuation of in-store shopping activity.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
