Detailed Description
The hotel room dynamic pricing method, the hotel room dynamic pricing device, the hotel room dynamic pricing equipment and the hotel room dynamic pricing storage medium provided by the invention are further described in detail with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments. Advantages and features of the present invention will become apparent from the following description and from the claims.
Example one
Dynamic pricing is part of revenue management, and means that an optimal price strategy is formulated by collecting historical data of customers and analyzing habits and characteristics of customer purchases. The dynamic pricing of the hotel rooms has very important significance on daily operation and income management of the hotel, the price of the hotel rooms most directly reflects the income condition of the hotel, the income and the profitability of the hotel can be further improved by adjusting the price of the hotel rooms, and the maximization of the total income is realized.
The embodiment provides a hotel room dynamic pricing method aiming at the problems that traditional hotels often make decisions based on experiences, the traditional hotels are generally limited by work experiences and reviews of pricing workers, the subjectivity is strong, and the total income cannot be effectively improved.
Referring to fig. 1, the method for dynamically pricing hotel rooms includes:
s1: collecting historical data of each room type of the hotel, and processing the historical data to obtain historical data of the price demand of the rooms;
s2: fitting a price demand function based on the historical data of the guest room price demand to predict the demands corresponding to different price points;
s3: establishing a dynamic game model of hotel room pricing and customer requirements based on a dynamic game theory;
s4: setting the highest price and the lowest price of a hotel room, and obtaining the probability distribution of the order accepted by the customer according to the ratio of the highest price and the lowest price accepted by the customer;
s5: and optimizing the profit model according to the probability distribution of the order received by the customer, the number of required guestrooms and the balanced solution of the dynamic game model, and solving to obtain the dynamic price of the hotel guestrooms in the pre-sale period.
Specifically, in step S1, in this embodiment, data of the type a in all types of rooms of a hotel from 7/2015 to 8/2017 is used as historical data of hotel orders, and is sorted into a predetermined number of rooms per day, a limited dependent variable regression method, such as a Tobit regression or multiple logistic regression model, is used to deal with the problem of right cutoff of demand caused by the limitation of the number of rooms, the historical data is restored to an untruncated state, the historical data of the hotel reservation per day is restored, and then seasonal factors are removed. The method comprises the following specific steps:
s11: for historical data, since the maximum predetermined number of rooms is the total number of rooms, but the real demand of the customer may be greater than the total number of rooms, when the predetermined number of rooms is maximum, corresponding to the demand of the customer, it is necessary to use a limited dependent variable regression method, to handle the problem of right truncation of the demand due to the limitation of the number of rooms, to restore the historical data to an un-truncated state, and to strip off periodic and seasonal factors.
For data points where demand is not truncated (original number of rooms <120), the original data is still used as the actual demand. For the data point with the truncated demand (the original preset number of guest rooms is 120), if the fitting value of the Tobit regression model is less than 120, the original data is still used as the actual demand, and if the fitting value of the Tobit regression model is greater than 120, the fitting value of the Tobit regression model is used as the actual demand, and the actual demand and the data which is not truncated are combined to obtain the truncated and reduced number of the preset guest rooms.
The restricted dependent variable regression method may be a Tobit regression, or a multivariate logistic regression or other model. In the embodiment, the Tobit regression is adopted to process the problem of right truncation of the demand caused by the limitation of the number of guest rooms, and the historical data is restored to be in an untruncated state.
The Tobit regression model is used for data with dependent variable being partially continuous and partially discrete distribution. The basic model is as follows:
y*=β′xi+ui
Figure BDA0002860936970000071
Figure BDA0002860936970000072
wherein the content of the first and second substances,
Figure BDA0002860936970000073
is a dependent variable (i.e., the number of guest rooms) which is observed when the dependent variable is greater than 0 and takes the value yi(ii) a When the dependent variable is less than or equal to 0, the value is 0; x is the number ofiIs an argument vector; β' is a coefficient vector; u. ofiIs an error term that is independent and obeys a positive power distribution: u. ofi~N(0,σ2)。
The values of the parameters β' and σ of the Tobit regression model can be obtained by maximum likelihood estimation, which is not described in detail herein.
Referring to fig. 2, the number of the guest room reservations before and after the truncation of the historical data is compared, in which a solid line represents a data curve of the demand truncation and a dotted line represents a curve after the restoration of the demand truncation point. From the figure, it can be easily seen that the curve after the requirement truncation and restoration is not limited to the value of 120 any more, the historical requirement data is restored to the state without truncation, and the real effectiveness of the requirement data is improved.
And calculating corresponding week factors, ten-day factors and month factors according to the reduced truncated data, and removing the influence of periodic and seasonal factors. The method comprises the following specific steps:
s12: solving main periodic and seasonal factor factors including a week factor, a ten-day factor and a month factor;
wherein, the calculation formula of each factor is as follows:
week factor:
Figure BDA0002860936970000081
factor of ten days:
Figure BDA0002860936970000082
monthly factor:

respectively the average requirements of each week, each ten-day and each month in the historical data;
Figure BDA0002860936970000087
is the overall average demand;
Figure BDA0002860936970000088
to cut off the demand after reduction.
Wti、EtjAnd MtkAll values are between 0 and 1 and satisfy
Figure BDA0002860936970000089
And
Figure BDA00028609369700000810
if the day of residence t is on day i of the week, WtiOtherwise, Wti0; if the ten-day degree of the entering date t is j, Etj1, otherwise Etj0; if the month of the entering-living day t is k, Mtk1, otherwise Mtk=0。
Referring to fig. 3, the solid line represents the raw data curve (i.e., the data curve without stripping the periodic and seasonal factors), and the dashed line represents the data curve after stripping the periodic and seasonal factors. After the periodic and seasonal factors of the demand data are stripped, compared with the guest room booking number without stripping the periodic and seasonal factors, the guest room booking number reduces the fluctuation range of the data, and the demand data tends to be stable.
Step S2 further includes: based on the historical data of the guest room price demand, a local slope updating algorithm or a least square method is adopted to fit a price demand function.
In the embodiment, the reduced demand data set is used as a sample set, the demand data from 2017 to 2017 and month 4 to 8 is selected as historical data, and a local slope updating method is used for fitting a price demand curve in the house type pre-sale period, wherein the house type pre-sale period is 10 days in 2017 and 9 months in a check-in date and ten days in a pre-sale period. The method comprises the following specific steps:
in the local slope updating method, according to Lagrange's median theorem, when the price variation interval is sufficiently small, the slope of the price demand function obtained at a certain price point can be approximately used as the unified slope value of the interval near the price point.
The specific steps of local slope update are as follows:
obtaining selected historical scattered points, wherein the scattered points are real sample points and correspond to price requirements (pi, di), and i is 1, 2, 3 …
A demand function D1 (-) with a first segment slope of-D1/p 1 is obtained from a first sample point (p1, D1) (the slope of the price demand in a cell around this point is determined by this point, and the slope represents a price sensitivity or price elasticity).
The second sample point (p2, D2) obtains a demand function D2 (-) with a second segment slope of-D2/p 2, and the previous first segment is adjusted (slope is constant and intercept is changed) to ensure that price sensitivity among each cell is determined by the nearest sample point and continuity of the whole demand function.
By analogy, the t-th section of the demand curve is obtained at the t-th sample point, and meanwhile, the previous t-1 section is adjusted, and finally, the price demand curve in the house type pre-sale period based on historical data is obtained:
Figure BDA0002860936970000091
the price demand curve is shown in fig. 4.
Step S3 further includes: in the dynamic game model, the game of the hotel and the customer about the price of the guest room is a non-antagonistic cooperative game, the hotel and the customer conspire to jointly obtain the benefit as much as possible, and the ideal outcome pursued by the hotel is that the benefit of the hotel is as much as possible on the basis of the reservation of the customer.
When a dynamic game model is created, a hotel can firstly set the pre-sale price of a guest room and then generate two different prediction benefits according to the feedback result of reservation or non-reservation of customers; according to the income prediction result, the decision of the hotel is to adjust the pre-sale price of the guest room on the premise of customer reservation.
Dynamic gambling refers to the sequential order of the participants' actions, and the latter can observe the selection of the former and make corresponding selections based on the observed selection. Specifically to the present embodiment, the participants in the dynamic game are hotel pricing providers and customers. A hotel pricing person firstly makes a pre-sale price of a guest room, a customer compares the pre-sale price with a psychological expectation, and if the customer is within the psychological expectation (acceptable price), the hotel pricing person makes a reservation; if it is not psychologically expected (unacceptable price), it is not booked.
Step S4 further includes:
s41: the maximum price f of the guest room is set according to the actual condition of the hotelmax
S42: according to the fitted price demand function in step S2, check-inThe price corresponding to the actual remaining stock of the guest room is taken as the lowest price fmin
S43: calculating the maximum acceptable guest room price f through historical datamaxThe customer ratio of (a) is θ;
Figure BDA0002860936970000101
s44 the probability distribution from the guest room to the customer accepting the guest room price to order is:
Figure BDA0002860936970000102
in this embodiment, the maximum price and the minimum price in the pre-sale period of the house type of the hotel are set for the day of 9 and 1 month in 2017, and the probability distribution of the customer receiving the pre-sale order in the pre-sale period is obtained according to the ratio of the maximum price and the minimum price received by the customer, which is specifically as follows:
the maximum price of the guest room is set to be 250 through the non-discount price of the guest room, and the price 128 corresponding to the actual remaining stock of the guest room with the number of the incoming days of 2017, 9 and 10 in 9 and 1 in 2017 is found out from the fitted demand function and serves as the minimum price.
Calculating the maximum acceptable guest room price f through the historical data of the customer's room reservation from 4 to 8 months in 2017maxThe customer ratio of (a) is:
