An apparatus and a method for extracting an underlying demand system for optimal product bundling and design. User input is received that indicates items for which a demand system is to be determined. Auction participants are selected. The structure of the auction is configured for determining demand complementarities of the items to be auctioned. At least one auction is then conducted using the configured structure so as to obtain bid data for each of the items that are auctioned. The bid data is then analyzed to determine an estimate of a demand system for the products.
A method for optimal product bundling and design comprising:
A method for optimal product bundling and design comprising:
In a computer system having a processor coupled to a bus, a computer-readable medium coupled to said bus and having stored therein a computer program that when executed by said processor causes said computer system to implement a method for optimal product bundling and design comprising:
In a computer system having a processor coupled to a bus, a computer-readable medium coupled to said bus and having stored therein a computer program that when executed by said processor causes said computer system to implement a method for optimal product bundling and design comprising:
A computing device operable to generate a web site, said computing device coupled to the Internet for communicating with participants for conducting auctions for items that have demand systems that include demand complementarities, said computing device operable to use bid data from said auctions for nonparametrically estimating said demand system for said items.
A computing device operable to generate a web site, said computing device coupled to the Internet for communicating with participants for receiving bids that indicate a valuation for items having said demand system that includes demand complementarities, said computing device operable for nonparametrically estimating said demand system using said bid data.
