Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of privacy computing technology, and in particular, relates to a pricing method for an idle goods trading platform based on privacy computing. Background Art
[0002] With the development of informatization, platform economy as a new economic form is attracting more and more attention. Internet shopping platforms have become an important part of market economic activities and an indispensable part of people's lives. However, while developing rapidly, the negative factors of Internet shopping platforms have gradually emerged, such as Internet monopoly, infringement of user data privacy, and "big data killing old customers". In this context, it is particularly necessary to conduct more in-depth research on Internet platform companies. Among them, price is one of the core elements of the market economy. Pricing decision-making issues have always been a hot topic for scholars at home and abroad. Currently, supply chain pricing decisions based on different preference factors such as product or channel differences have become the mainstream of research. At present, there are the following problems in the pricing of shopping platform products: (1) Too high or too low pricing: Too high pricing will make it difficult for products to compete and sales will be poor, while too low pricing may affect the profitability of enterprises. (2) Unreasonable pricing strategy: The seller's pricing strategy is unclear, such as frequent price changes and lack of stability, which makes it difficult for consumers to form a sense of trust. (3) Ignoring cost and value: Sellers ignore the production cost and market value of products, resulting in unreasonable pricing. (4) Opaque or unfair pricing: Customers may feel that pricing is opaque and unfair, leading to dissatisfaction and complaints.
[0003] However, as an indispensable part of online shopping platforms, idle goods trading platforms have both the characteristics of ordinary shopping platforms and the characteristics that ordinary shopping platforms do not have. For example: (1) idle goods are usually goods that the seller will not use again after replacing them. Usually, they cannot be priced using traditional pricing methods due to their newness, seller preferences and other characteristics; (2) Sellers have different sales urgency, such as some sellers want to sell as soon as possible, while some sellers can wait for a longer sales cycle; (3) Sellers change their mentality. Usually, idle goods that cannot be sold for a long time will be discarded.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a pricing method that can effectively protect user privacy, avoid big data price discrimination, and help sellers sell idle items as soon as possible. Summary of the invention
[0005] The purpose of this application is to overcome the problems of the prior art and disclose a pricing method for an idle item trading platform based on privacy computing. This method can effectively protect user privacy and avoid big data price discrimination, and can also help sellers sell idle items as soon as possible.
[0006] The purpose of this application is achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0007] A pricing method for an idle goods trading platform based on privacy computing, wherein the idle goods trading platform comprises a pricing platform and an Internet platform, wherein the pricing platform is provided with a plurality of pricing servers, and each user interacts with a commodity server located on the Internet platform via the pricing servers;
[0008] The idle goods trading platform pricing method includes:
[0009] S1: Build a personalized recommendation pool on the Internet platform. The pricing platform obtains users' preferences and interests based on the training and learning process of federated learning and puts them into the personalized recommendation pool.
[0010] S2: Construct pricing ranges for products on the pricing platform. Product sellers provide a price range [m, n] for each product, where m <n;
[0011] S3: Set price rules for products on the pricing platform, price products according to preset price rules based on product listing time and preset price range, and upload real-time prices to the Internet platform;
[0012] S4: The Internet platform completes personalized product recommendations to the corresponding server of the pricing platform based on the product information in the recommendation pool and the obtained actual product price information. The user obtains product recommendations from the idle product trading platform based on the pricing server and completes the transaction.
[0013] According to a preferred embodiment, in step S3, the price rules of the commodity include:
[0014] Products are priced from high to low based on the time they are put on the shelves. The price of a product when it is first put on the shelves is the highest price n in the pricing range provided by the seller, and the price is periodically reduced according to the sales time.
[0015] According to a preferred embodiment, in step S3, a heat auction method is introduced in the process of periodic price reduction according to the sales time.
[0016] When the click rate of a product does not reach the preset popularity value within a period, the price of the corresponding product is too high, and the pricing range is activated to reduce the price of the product;
[0017] When the click rate of a product reaches the preset popularity value within a cycle and it is not sold, the product introduction information cannot attract platform users, so the recommendation information in the personalized recommendation pool is activated and the product introduction information is re-listed.
[0018] According to a preferred embodiment, the popularity is obtained by self-learning of the idle goods trading platform.
[0019] According to a preferred embodiment, during the heat statistics process, only one click is recorded when the same user browses the same product of the same price.
[0020] According to a preferred embodiment, clicks of users added to the untrustworthy user pool during the heat statistics process are regarded as invalid clicks; users in the untrustworthy user pool are defined as users who frequently click and browse the same product in a certain period of time.
[0021] According to a preferred embodiment, the commodity price in the next period of the periodic price reduction process is:
[0022] The product price in the next cycle = current product price * (1-1 / product popularity - seller urgency index); product popularity refers to the number of clicks in the corresponding period after the product goes online, and the seller urgency index is determined by the seller's waiting time. If the seller accepts the sale of the item within p days, the seller urgency index is 1 / p.
[0023] The aforementioned main scheme of the present application and its further options can be freely combined to form multiple schemes, all of which are schemes that can be adopted and claimed for protection in the present application. After understanding the scheme of the present application, those skilled in the art can understand that there are multiple combinations based on the prior art and common knowledge, all of which are technical schemes to be protected by the present application, and they are not exhaustively listed here.
[0024] Beneficial effects of this application:
[0025] Users do not interact directly with the product server, which can protect user privacy and avoid big data price discrimination; it can also avoid repeated clicks by a single participant, that is, a user frequently clicks on the same item to increase the popularity of the item.

[0033] Example 1
[0034] refer to Figure 1 As shown, the present application discloses a pricing method for an idle item trading platform based on privacy computing. The idle item trading platform includes a pricing platform and an Internet platform. The pricing platform is provided with a number of pricing servers, and each user interacts with a commodity server located on the Internet platform via the pricing server.
[0035] The pricing method of the idle goods trading platform includes the following steps:
[0036] Step S1: Build a personalized recommendation pool on the Internet platform. The pricing platform obtains the user's preferences and interests based on the training and learning process of federated learning, and puts them into the personalized recommendation pool. The construction of the personalized recommendation pool is obtained from the parameters of the federated participants.
[0037] The training learning process based on federated learning obtains users' preferences and interests and puts them into the personalized recommendation pool. And users do not directly interact with the commodity server. The web background (pricing platform) is used as the server of federated learning, and platform users are the participants of federated learning. Introducing federated learning can effectively prevent the shopping platform from memorizing user information, effectively protect user data privacy, and avoid the behavior of big data price discrimination on the platform.
[0038] Step S2: Build a pricing range for the commodity on the pricing platform. The commodity seller provides a price range [m, n] for each commodity, where m < n. Different from the deterministic pricing criterion of a traditional platform where a commodity has only one price, the present invention introduces the pricing range theory, that is, the commodity seller needs to provide an acceptable price range for each commodity so as to carry out periodic price reduction for the commodity according to the algorithm.
[0039] Step S3: Set a price rule for the commodity on the pricing platform. Based on the commodity listing time and the preset price range, the commodity is priced according to the preset price rule, and the real-time price is uploaded to the Internet platform.
[0040] Preferably, in step S3, the price rule of the commodity includes: the commodity is priced from high to low based on the listing time. The price when the commodity is just listed is the highest price n in the pricing range provided by the seller, and periodic price reduction is carried out according to the sales time.
[0041] Further, in step S3, a heat auction method is introduced during the process of periodic price reduction according to the sales time.
[0042] When the click-through rate of a commodity does not reach the preset heat value within one cycle, it means that the price of the corresponding commodity is too high, and the pricing range is activated to lower the price of the commodity.
[0043] When the click-through rate of a commodity reaches the preset heat value within one cycle and the commodity is not sold out at the same time, it means that the introduction information of the commodity cannot attract platform users, and then the recommendation information in the personalized recommendation pool is activated to re-list the commodity introduction information.
[0044] Preferably, the heat is obtained by the second-hand trading platform's self-learning.
[0045] Further, during the heat statistics process, only one click is recorded for the same user's browsing of the same commodity at the same price.
[0046] Preferably, the clicks of users added to the dishonest user pool are regarded as invalid clicks during the heat statistics process; users in the dishonest user pool are defined as users who frequently click (for example, click the same commodity more than 5 times on the same day) and browse the same commodity within a certain period of time, thus avoiding the behavior of brushing heat.
[0047] Preferably, during the periodic price reduction process, the commodity price of the next cycle is: commodity price of the next cycle = current commodity price * (1-1 / commodity popularity-seller urgency index); wherein, commodity popularity refers to the number of clicks in the corresponding period after the commodity is launched, and the seller urgency index is determined by the seller's waiting time. If the seller accepts the sale of the item within p days, the seller urgency index is 1 / p.
[0048] Step S4: The Internet platform completes personalized product recommendations to the corresponding server of the pricing platform based on the product information in the recommendation pool and the obtained actual product price information. The user obtains product recommendations from the idle product trading platform based on the pricing server and completes the transaction.
[0049] Therefore, the method of the present invention can not only help sellers quickly match suitable buyers to sell their idle items, but also effectively avoid the phenomenon of big data price discrimination while protecting user data privacy.
[0050] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
