中文简介:
本文描述了爱彼迎的定价策略模型,爱彼迎是一个共享家居和体验的在线市场。价格优化的目标是帮助在Airbnb上共享房屋的房东为其房源设定最佳价格。与传统的定价问题不同,传统的定价策略适用于大量相同的产品,Airbnb上没有“相同”的产品,因为我们平台上的每个房源都为我们的客人提供了独特的价值观和体验。爱彼迎房源的独特性使得很难估计应用传统收入最大化定价策略所需的准确需求曲线。 我们的定价体系由三部分组成。首先,一个二元分类模型预测了每个房源夜晚的预订概率。其次,回归模型预测了每个上市夜晚的最佳价格,其中使用定制的损失函数来指导学习。最后,我们在第二个模型的输出之上应用额外的个性化逻辑来生成最终的价格建议。在本文中,我们重点描述了定价系统第二阶段的回归模型。我们还描述了一组新的离线评估指标。拟议的定价策略已在生产中部署,为Airbnb上的价格提示和智能定价工具提供动力。在线A/B测试结果证明了所提出的策略模型的有效性。
课程简介: This paper describes the pricing strategy model deployed at Airbnb, an online marketplace for sharing home and experience. The goal of price optimization is to help hosts who share their homes on Airbnb set the optimal price for their listings. In contrast to conventional pricing problems, where pricing strategies are applied to a large quantity of identical products, there are no “identical” products on Airbnb, because each listing on our platform offers unique values and experiences to our guests. The unique nature of Airbnb listings makes it very difficult to estimate an accurate demand curve that’s required to apply conventional revenue maximization pricing strategies. Our pricing system consists of three components. First, a binary classification model predicts the booking probability of each listing-night. Second, a regression model predicts the optimal price for each listing-night, in which a customized loss function is used to guide the learning. Finally, we apply additional personalization logic on top of the output from the second model to generate the final price suggestions. In this paper, we focus on describing the regression model in the second stage of our pricing system. We also describe a novel set of metrics for offline evaluation. The proposed pricing strategy has been deployed in production to power the Price Tips and Smart Pricing tool on Airbnb. Online A/B testing results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed strategy model.
