MSI Analytics Conference Rebroadcast: Livestream Shopping and Dynamic Customer Interactions
This session is a rebroadcast from MSI’s 2023 Analytics Conference.
Nowadays consumers use digital devices wherever they go, so marketers can engage consumers with frequent and dynamic marketing interventions. Xiao Liu will present a dynamic personalized pricing strategy (or dynamic coupon targeting strategy) based on a state-of-the-art artificial intelligence algorithm, deep reinforcement learning, which also empowers AlphaGo. A large-scale field experiment conducted in collaboration with the world’s largest live-stream shopping platform demonstrates that the proposed dynamic personalized pricing strategy outperforms all the benchmarks.
