Yang Cai, Christopher Liaw, Aranyak Mehta +1
We consider the problem of maximizing the gains from trade (GFT) in two-sided markets. The seminal impossibility result by Myerson and Satterthwaite shows that even for bilateral t…
Polynomial Time and Private Learning of Unbounded Gaussian Mixture Models
Jamil Arbas, Hassan Ashtiani, Christopher Liaw
We study the problem of privately estimating the parameters of -dimensional Gaussian Mixture Models (GMMs) with components. For this, we develop a technique to reduce the pr…
User Response in Ad Auctions: An MDP Formulation of Long-Term Revenue Optimization
Yang Cai, Zhe Feng, Christopher Liaw +2
We propose a new Markov Decision Process (MDP) model for ad auctions to capture the user response to the quality of ads, with the objective of maximizing the long-term discounted r…
