arXiv:2607. 27265v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Real-time bidding is central to computational advertising, comprising three elements: Supply Side Platform (SSP) selling ad impressions, Demand Side Platform (DSP) bidding for advertisers, and Ad Exchange conducting auctions between them.
The paper introduces LLP, a Large Language Model–based generative framework for pricing second‑hand products on consumer‑to‑consumer platforms. LLP retrieves similar items to capture market dynamics, then uses LLMs to generate price suggestions, refined through supervised fine‑tuning and group relative policy optimization. A confidence‑based filter rejects unreliable predictions, and experiments show LLP outperforms prior methods, achieving higher static adoption rates when deployed on Xianyu.
E-Commerce Bench is an open‑source benchmark that simulates a year‑long e‑commerce operation, requiring LLM agents to manage multiple online stores, negotiate with suppliers, optimize sales, fulfill orders, handle returns, and manage cash flow. The environment uses real product and supplier data, a calendar of promotions and shocks, and deterministic customer and negotiation models to enable reproducible evaluation. The study evaluates 18 state‑of‑the‑art models across seven metrics, finding no single model dominates, with GPT‑5.6 Sol achieving the highest year‑end assets but lagging in fraud avoidance and operational efficiency.
arXiv:2606. 13741v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper presents the design, development, and implementation of a specialized forecast-then-optimize algorithmic pricing tool for sales campaigns in fashion e-commerce.
The paper proposes a single hierarchical Semantic ID (SID) system to unify product identification across multiple merchants in e-commerce. By learning SID representations from product content, the authors demonstrate that ranking algorithms can aggregate consumer affinity and product performance over SID prefixes, improving offline relevance and online engagement. For query reformulation, SID concepts guide navigation and refinement, yielding better intent preservation and higher-quality suggestions compared to taxonomy or raw query transitions.
arXiv:2607. 03880v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sponsored search plays a crucial role in e-commerce revenue generation, where advertisers strategically bid on keywords to capture the attention of users through relevant search queries.
arXiv:2510. 15238v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Optimizing a single advertising campaign across heterogeneous channels is a central challenge in industrial autobidding.
The paper introduces DCEO, a data‑driven framework that learns item‑level proxy scores directly aligned with long‑term user objectives in e‑commerce search. It aggregates these scores into a user‑level metric, measures alignment via relative causal effect, and uses an actor‑critic model to generate context‑dependent fusion weights for multiple objectives. Offline experiments and a 41‑day online A/B test show DCEO improves GMV by 0.36% over traditional proxies.
arXiv:2607. 14418v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Ad-load design is a central supply-side decision in sponsored search: more sponsored slots can raise revenue, but may crowd out organic results and degrade user outcomes.
arXiv:2606. 26787v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Traditional dynamic pricing models in large-scale e-commerce suffer from limited interpretability, poor utilization of unstructured information, and misalignment with long-term business objectives such as cumulative Gross Merchandise Value (GMV), Return on Investment (ROI) and milestone achievement.
arXiv:2604. 05845v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Auto-bidding services optimize real-time bidding strategies for advertisers under key performance indicator (KPI) constraints such as target return on investment and budget.
arXiv:2607. 03886v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sponsored search plays a crucial role as a revenue stream for search engines, wherein advertisers competitively bid on keywords that align with the users' search queries.
