This paper explores the pricing of heterogeneous goods in the presence of market segmentation. We use housing as an example. We extend the theoretical hedonic model of Rosen (1974) and show that, in the presence of market segmentation, the hedonic price line is no longer continuous or unique....

In some applications of supervised machine learning, it is desirable to trade model complexity with greater interpretability for some covariates while letting other covariates remain a "black box". An important example is hedonic property valuation modeling, where machine learning techniques...

Accurate estimates of land values on a property-by-property basis are an important requirement for the effective implementation of land-based property taxes. We compare hedonic, residual, and matching techniques for mass appraisal of residential land values, using data from Maricopa County,...
