| '''Reinforcement Mechanism Design''' | |||
Mechanism design is a modeling and algorithmic framework to design and optimize mechanisms in dynamic industrial environments where a designer can make use of the data generated in the process to automatically improve future design. Reinforcement mechanism design is rooted in game theory but incorporates recent AI techniques to get rid of nonrealistic modeling assumptions and to make automated optimization feasible. The framework can be applied on many key application scenarios, such as Baidu and Taobao, two of the largest mobile app companies in China. For the Taobao case, the framework automatically designs mechanisms that allocate buyer impressions for the e-commerce website; for the Baidu case, the frame-work automatically designs dynamic reserve pricing schemes of advertisement auctions of the search engine. Experiments show that the solutions outperform the state-of-the-art alternatives and those currently deployed, under both scenarios. | |||
