Dynamic Contracting under Permanent and Transitory Private Information [PDF]

, 2013
To understand how firms create and maintain long term relationships with consumers, or how procurement relations evolve over time, it is useful to study a dynamic variant of the classical two-type-buyer contract in mechanism design.

Bottleneck Routing Games with Low Price of Anarchy

, 2010
We study {\em bottleneck routing games} where the social cost is determined by the worst congestion on any edge in the network. In the literature, bottleneck games assume player utility costs determined by the worst congested edge in their paths. However,

MEMU: More Efficient Algorithm to Mine High Average-Utility Patterns With Multiple Minimum Average-Utility Thresholds

IEEE Access, 2018
High average-utility itemsets mining (HAUIM) is an emerging topic in data mining. Compared to traditional high utility itemset mining, HAUIM more fairly measures the utility of itemsets by considering their lengths (number of items).

Niche products, generic products, and consumer search [PDF]

We endogenize product differentiation in a model of sequential search with random firm-consumer match value à la Wolinsky (1986) and Anderson and Renault (1999).

An Efficient Approach for Mining High Average-Utility Itemsets in Incremental Database

Engineering Proceedings
Traditional high-utility itemset (HUI) mining methods tend to overestimate utility for long itemsets, leading to biased results. High average-utility itemset (HAUI) mining addresses this problem by normalizing utility with itemset length.

The Utility Standard and the Patentability of Intermediate Technology [PDF]

We explore the consequences of the utility requirement on speed of innovation, welfare and public policy. A weak utility requirement means that an intermediate technology with no immediate application or commercial value is patentable.
