Predicting Purchasing Behavior on E-Commerce Platforms: A Regression Model Approach for Understanding User Features that Lead to Purchasing

This research introduces a novel approach to improve and optimize the predictive capacity of consumer purchase behaviors on e-commerce platforms. This study presented an introduction to the fundamental concepts of the logistic regression algorithm. In addition, it analyzed user data obtained from an e-commerce platform. The original data were preprocessed, and a consumer purchase prediction model was developed for the e-commerce platform using the logistic regression method. The comparison study used the classic random forest approach, further enhanced by including the K-fold cross-validation method. Evaluation of the accuracy of the model’s classification was conducted using performance indicators that included the accuracy rate, the precision rate, the recall rate, and the F1 score. A visual examination determined the significance of the findings. The findings suggest that employing the logistic regression algorithm to forecast customer purchase behaviors on e-commerce platforms can improve the efficacy of the approach and yield more accurate predictions. This study serves as a valuable resource for improving the precision of forecasting customers’ purchase behaviors on e-commerce platforms. It has significant practical implications for optimizing the operational efficiency of e-commerce platforms.

Dynamic Pricing Model of E-Commerce Platforms Based on Deep Reinforcement Learning

With the continuous development of artificial intelligence technology,its application field has gradually expanded.To further apply the deep reinforcement learning technology to the field of dynamic pricing,we build an intelligent dynamic pricing system,introduce the reinforcement learning technology related to dynamic pricing,and introduce existing research on the number of suppliers(single supplier and multiple suppliers),environmental models,and selection algorithms.A two-period dynamic pricing game model is designed to assess the optimal pricing strategy for e-commerce platforms under two market conditions and two consumer participation conditions.The first step is to analyze the pricing strategies of e-commerce platforms in mature markets,analyze the optimal pricing and profits of various enterprises under different strategy combinations,compare different market equilibriums and solve the Nash equilibrium.Then,assuming that all consumers are naive in the market,the pricing strategy of the duopoly e-commerce platform in emerging markets is analyzed.By comparing and analyzing the optimal pricing and total profit of each enterprise under different strategy combinations,the subgame refined Nash equilibrium is solved.Finally,assuming that the market includes all experienced consumers,the pricing strategy of the duopoly e-commerce platform in emerging markets is analyzed.

A Novel Named Entity Recognition Scheme for Steel E-Commerce Platforms Using a Lite BERT

In the era of big data,E-commerce plays an increasingly important role,and steel E-commerce certainly occupies a positive position.However,it is very difficult to choose satisfactory steel raw materials from diverse steel commodities online on steel E-commerce platforms in the purchase of staffs.In order to improve the efficiency of purchasers searching for commodities on the steel E-commerce platforms,we propose a novel deep learning-based loss function for named entity recognition(NER).Considering the impacts of small sample and imbalanced data,in our NER scheme,the focal loss,the label smoothing,and the cross entropy are incorporated into a lite bidirectional encoder representations from transformers(BERT)model to avoid the over-fitting.Moreover,through the analysis of different classic annotation techniques used to tag data,an ideal one is chosen for the training model in our proposed scheme.Experiments are conducted on Chinese steel E-commerce datasets.The experimental results show that the training time of a lite BERT(ALBERT)-based method is much shorter than that of BERT-based models,while achieving the similar computational performance in terms of metrics precision,recall,and F1 with BERT-based models.Meanwhile,our proposed approach performs much better than that of combining Word2Vec,bidirectional long short-term memory(Bi-LSTM),and conditional random field(CRF)models,in consideration of training time and F1.

Evolutionary game analysis of information service quality control of e-commerce platforms under information ecology

Due to the information asymmetry and imperfect supervision system,the problem of information service quality of e-commerce platforms is becoming increasingly prominent.Based on the perspective of information ecology,this paper constructs a three-party evolutionary game model including merchants,e-commerce platforms and governments,and analyzes the dynamic process of the threeparty game under bounded rationality,thereby characterizing the behavior and optimal strategies of information service quality control.We carry out numerical simulation using data of the Pinduoduo platform.The results show that the cost of each party,control strength of e-commerce platforms,proportion of margin deducted and other factors are important factors affecting the quality of information service;Only when the sum of the costs of passive management of e-commerce platforms,penalties for merchants,and the additional revenue generated from the active management exceeds the cost of the active management of the e-commerce platforms,it ensures effective control over the quality of information service in a stable market environment.Finally,some suggestions are put forward to optimize the e-commerce information service quality control.

Price Masking Strategy of Cross-Border E-Commerce Platform Financing

E-commerce platform financing is a new service pattern of supply chain finance.However,this pattern may bring some new issues when considering the problem of cash flow shortage and financing difficulties of small and medium-sized enterprises.When enterprises use this service,they worry about the leakage of preferential wholesale price when applying the full loan amount and providing the true transaction information.Based on the model consisting of a supplier,a retailer and a cross-border e-commerce platform,the authors design a price masking strategy to prevent the retailer’s preferential wholesale price information from leakage.The authors analyze the profit of the retailer and the platform before and after adopting the price masking strategy.The authors find that the price masking strategy always benefits the retailer.Besides,the optimal profit of the retailer and the platform are both affected by the loan interest rate.Moreover,there exists a range of loan interest rates that can benefit both the retailer and the platform if the price masking strategy is adopted.The research emphasizes that platform can expand the total business volume by allowing retailers to use price masking strategy.In other words,there will be more and more retailers attracted by the strategy,which benefits the long-term growth of cross-border e-commerce platform financing.

论短视频版权侵权行为中平台责任的认定

长视频版权方与短视频平台之间的矛盾是愈演愈烈的长短视频之争中需要首先解决的问题,短视频版权侵权行为中平台责任的认定亟须得到明确。合理使用情形的排除是平台担责的前提,重点是对“适当引用”条款的理解,应通过非实质性引用和比例原则检验引用是否适当。避风港规则是判断平台是否被归责的标准,红旗原则是排除避风港规则适用的例外。平台对用户上传内容的实质审查义务取决于平台对内容的版权性接触事实或接触可能,但平台对内容的合规审查义务并不必然触发其对内容版权合法性的审查义务。提供网络服务的类型是平台担责的基础,平台身份越靠近网络中介服务提供者,越有可能通过避风港规则免责;反之,平台身份越靠近网络内容提供者,越难以通过避风港规则免责。
