Objective Variables for Probabilistic Revenue Maximization in Second-Price Auctions with Reserve
Maja R. Rudolph, Joseph G. Ellis, David M. Blei
Many online companies sell advertisement space in second-price auctions with reserve. In this paper, we develop a probabilistic method to learn a profitable strategy to set the res…
Automatic Variational Inference in Stan
Alp Kucukelbir, Rajesh Ranganath, Andrew Gelman +1
Variational inference is a scalable technique for approximate Bayesian inference. Deriving variational inference algorithms requires tedious model-specific calculations; this makes…
Bayesian Poisson Tensor Factorization for Inferring Multilateral Relations from Sparse Dyadic Event Counts
Aaron Schein, John Paisley, David M. Blei +1
We present a Bayesian tensor factorization model for inferring latent group structures from dynamic pairwise interaction patterns. For decades, political scientists have collected…
