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.

The paper introduces the Constrained Triple-Head Price Optimization (C3PO) network, a transformer-based model designed for real‑time bi‑level decision making in discrete‑choice settings. C3PO integrates price imitation learning, multi‑task revenue prediction, and in‑context elasticity learning, while a lightweight differentiable constraint layer enforces business pricing rules. Experiments on simulated, synthetic, and real‑world datasets show that C3PO outperforms calibrated MNL baselines by up to 7.9 percentage points in expected revenue and reduces constraint violations by over 50%, with significant improvements in healthcare tender and airline ancillary pricing applications.

arXiv:2606. 16183v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We develop an LLM-powered virtual population model that simulates demand for pricing decisions, in settings where products are described by rich unstructured information, such as text descriptions and images, and where decision makers need not only mean-demand predictions but also uncertainty estimates for counterfactual prices.
