Optimizing Two Sided Promotion for IS Enabled Transportation Network: A Conditional Bayesian Learning Model
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper investigates a typical two-sided micro-level business model of IS enabled transportation network. Specifically, we focus on how two-sided sales promotion interacts with users’ learning about attribute, and measure the effectiveness of sales promotion for their platform introductions. Our paper applies Bayesian learning model with an extension to account for multiple serial unobserved correlation. We find the measurable evidence of taxi driver’s learning about order commitment and payment methods of passenger. We furtherly identify that the attribute value of transportation network is undervalued in prior, which indicates that intensive promotion would not only attract user instantly, but also enhance user learning in long run. We name the effect on adoption rate driven by user learning as indirect effect of sales promotion. By running simulations, we quantify the indirect effect of sales promotion explicitly, and furtherly propose more efficient sales promotion strategy as managerial implication for industry.

Learning Bayesian Network Structure using Markov Blanket in K2 Algorithm
A Bayesian network is a graphical model that represents a set of random variables and their causal relationship via a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG). There are basically two methods used for learning Bayesian network: parameter-learning and structure-learning. One of the most effective structure-learning methods is K2 algorithm. Because the performance of the K2 algorithm depends on node...

Bayesian networks (BNs) are modern tools for modeling phenomena in dynamic and static systems and are used in different subjects such as disease diagnosis, weather forecasting, decision making and clustering. A BN is a graphical-probabilistic model which represents causal relations among random variables and consists of a directed acyclic graph and a set of conditional probabilities. Structure...

Evaporation phenomena is a effective climate component on water resources management and has special importance in agriculture. In this paper, Bayesian belief networks (BBNs) as a non-linear modeling technique provide an evaporation estimation method under uncertainty. As a case study, we estimated the surface water evaporation of the Persian Gulf and worked with a dataset of observations ...
