Pricing with Contextual Elasticity and Heteroscedastic Valuation
具有情境价格弹性与异方差估值的动态定价
We study an online contextual dynamic pricing problem, where customers decide whether to purchase a product based on its features and price. We introduce a novel approach to modeling a customer's expected demand by incorporating feature-based price elasticity, which can be equivalently represented as a valuation with heteroscedastic noise. To solve the problem, we propose a computationally efficient algorithm called "Pricing with Perturbation (PwP)", which enjoys an $O(\sqrt{dT\log T})$…
