主题:Operational Data Analytics for Newsvendors


讲座摘要

Decision making with limited data is challenging.In this talk, we introduce the framework of operational data analytics (ODA) that integrates data to predictive or prescriptive solutions. This framework strikes a delicate balance between the (likely imprecise) structural knowledge and the data. The two pillars of the ODA framework are (i) a data-integration model that identifies the class of operational statistics based on the desired structural properties of the models within the domain of validation, and (ii) a validating model that appropriately utilize the data to validate the choice of the operational statistics.  Using the classical newsvendor model as an example, we show that the ODA framework generalizes the existing approaches including predict-then-optimize, regularized empirical optimization, robust optimization, robust satisfying, order statistics and smart-predict-and-optimize.
