Research Type Theoretical The first policy called Contextual Robust Pricing (CORP) is designed for the setting where the market noise distribution is known to the seller and achieves a T-period regret of O(d log(Td) log(T)), where d is the dimension of the contextual information. The second policy, which is a variant of the first policy, is called Stable CORP (SCORP). This policy is tailored to the setting where the market noise distribution is unknown to the seller and belongs to an ambiguity set. We show that the SCORP policy has a T-period regret of O( p d log(Td) T 2/3).

Pseudocode Yes Table 1: CORP Policy
Open Source Code No The paper describes theoretical policies and their analysis, but does not provide any statements about the availability of open-source code for the described methodology.
Open Datasets No This is a theoretical paper that focuses on algorithm design and mathematical analysis (regret bounds) rather than empirical studies with specific datasets. Therefore, no information about public or open datasets for training is provided.
Dataset Splits No This is a theoretical paper focusing on algorithm design and mathematical analysis. It does not involve empirical experiments with dataset splits for training, validation, or testing.
Hardware Specification No The paper is theoretical and does not describe any empirical experiments, therefore no hardware specifications are mentioned.
Software Dependencies No The paper is theoretical and does not describe any implementation details that would require specific software dependencies with version numbers.
Experiment Setup No This is a theoretical paper and does not describe any empirical experiments with specific experimental setup details like hyperparameters or training configurations.
