Researchers have developed a new neural network model called the Integrable Context-Dependent Demand Network (ICDN) for multiproduct retail demand. This model learns log-demand as a function of log-prices, enabling exact derivation of elasticities from the learned demand surface. Applied to the Dominick's beer dataset, ICDN demonstrated improved out-of-sample generalization and more stable elasticity estimates compared to existing benchmarks. AI
