Algorithms for Multi-product Pricing

چکیده
In the information age, the availability of data on consumer profiles has opened new possibilities for companies to increase their revenue via data mining techniques. One approach has been to strategically set prices of various products, taking into account the profiles of consumers. We study algorithms for the multi-product pricing problem, where, given consumer preferences among products, their budgets, and the costs of production, the goal is to set prices of multiple products from a single company, so as to maximize the overall revenue of the company. We present approximation algorithms as well as negative results for several variants of the multi-product pricing problem, modeling different purchasing patterns and market assumptions.

An efficient Imperialistic Competitive Algorithm for the closed-loop supply chains considering pricing for product, and fleet of heterogeneous vehicles
This paper investigates a pricing multi-period, closed-loop supply chains (CLSCs) with two echelons of producers and customers. Products are delivered to customers might be defective which are picked up and gathered in the collection center and will be fixed if it is possible and will be returned to the chain. Otherwise, they are sold as waste. This problem is determining price and distributio...

Managing income is a considerable dimension in supply chain management in current economic atmosphere. Real world situation makes it inevitable not to design or redesign supply chain. Redesign will take place as costs increase or new services for customers’ new demands should be provided. Pricing is an important fragment of Supply chain due to two reasons: first, represents revenue based ...

Assessment of the electricity market shows that, electricity market data can be considered "big data". this data has been analyzed by both conventional and modern data mining methods. The predicted variables of supply and demand are considered to be the input of a defined multi-objective for predicting electricity price, which is the result of the defined model. This shows the advantage of appl...

This paper proposes a new mixed integer programming model for multi-item capacitated lot-sizing problem with setup times, safety stock and demand shortages in closed-loop supply chains. The returned products from customers can either be disposed or be remanufactured to be sold as new ones again. Due to the complexity of problem, three meta-heuristics algorithms named simulated annealing (SA) al...
