A combinatorial algorithm for constrained assortment optimization under nested logit model

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

We consider the assortment optimization problem with disjoint-cardinality constraints under two-level nested logit model. To solve this problem, we first identify a candidate set with O(mn2)O(mn^2) assortments and show that at least one optimal assortment is included in this set. Based on this observation, a fast algorithm, which runs in O(mn2log⁡mn)O(m n^2 \log mn) time, is proposed to find an optimal assortment.
