• Abstract: One of the major barriers for the retailers is to understand the consumption elasticity they can expect from their contracted demand response (DR) clients. The current trend of DR products provided by retailers are not consumer-specific, which poses additional barriers for the active engagement of consumers in these programs. The elasticity of consumers demand behavior varies from individual to individual. The utility will benefit from knowing more accurately how changes in its prices will modify the consumption pattern of its clients. This work proposes a functional model for the consumption elasticity of the DR contracted consumers. The model aims to determine the load adjustment the DR consumers can provide to the retailers or utilities for different price levels. The proposed model uses a Bayesian probabilistic approach to identify the actual load adjustment an individual contracted client can provide for different price levels it can experience. The developed framework provides the retailers or utilities with a tool to obtain crucial information on how an individual consumer will respond to different price levels. This approach is able to quantify the likelihood with which the consumer reacts to a DR signal and identify the actual load adjustment an individual contracted DR client provides for different price levels they can experience. This information can be used to maximize the control and reliability of the services the retailer or utility can offer to the System Operators.

• Estimating the Unobservable Components of Electricity Demand Response with Inverse Optimization [0.0]
  Understanding and predicting electricity demand responses to prices are critical activities for system operators, retailers, and regulators. The emergence of active consumers with flexible assets such as solar-plus-storage systems, and electric vehicles, introduces new challenges. We define the main components of net demand, as baseload, flexible, and self-generation, each having nonlinear responses to market price signals.

  We consider a dynamic model with the consumers' preferences as well as price sensitivity varying over time. We measure the performance of a dynamic pricing policy via regret, which is the expected revenue loss compared to a clairvoyant that knows the sequence of model parameters in advance. Our regret analysis results not only demonstrate optimality of the proposed policy but also show that for policy planning it is essential to incorporate available structural information.

  We develop a hybrid interpretable model to analyse 454,897 online customers' behavior for a particular product category at the largest online retailer in China, that is JD. Our results reveal that customers' product choice is insensitive to the promised delivery time, but this factor significantly impacts customers' order quantity. We identify product classes for which certain discounting approaches are more effective and provide recommendations on better use of different discounting tools.

  Product Question Answering (PQA) on E-Commerce platforms has attracted increasing attention as it can act as an intelligent online shopping assistant. It is insufficient to provide the same "completely summarized" answer to all customers, since many customers are more willing to see personalized answers with customized information only for themselves. We propose a novel multi-perspective user preference model for generating personalized answers in PQA.
