Maximizing profit using recommender systems
Traditional recommendation systems make recommendations based solely on the customer’s past purchases, product ratings and demographic data without considering the profitability the items being recommended. In this work we study the question of how a vendor can directly incorporate the profitability of items into its recommender so as to maximize its expected profit while still providing accura...
متن کاملOn Maximizing Profit through Pricing
Several important practical problems and techniques which are familiar to both actuaries and underwriters are discussed informally and then analyzed mathematically. The main subjects are the degree to which profitability can be improved by estimating the expected losses of risks more accurately, and the usefulness of various methods of improving accuracy. The effect of raising or lowering the g...
متن کاملProfit-maximizing pricing for tollbooths
The input to the tollbooth problem is a graph G = (V,E) and a set of m buyers Pi where each buyer is interested in buying a path Pi connecting si, ti ∈ V . Each buyer comes with a budget b(Pi), a positive real number. The problem is to set non-negative prices to the edges E of G. A buyer buys her path Pi if the sum of prices on Pi is at most her budget. If a buyer buys her path, we obtain a pro...
متن کاملMulti-Attribute Profit-Maximizing Pricing
In the unlimited-supply profit-maximizing pricing problem, we are given the consumers’ consideration sets and know their purchase strategy (e.g. buy the cheapest items). The goal is to price the items to maximize the revenue. Previous studies suggest that this problem is too general to obtain even a sublinear approximation ratio (in terms of the number of items) even when the consumers are rest...
متن کاملPrediction of Average Daughter Performance from Sire Proofs for Use in Linear Programming Sire Profit Models
When linear programming is used to rank sires on daughter profits, coefficients of input are required for representative daughters of each sire. Within herdyear-season regressions of daughter's actual 305-day milk, fat percent, days open, 2-min milk yield adjusted for total yield, total milking time, and body weight at birth and first calving on sire's proofs for production, conformation, milki...
