This paper presents an empirical model of sponsored search auctions in which advertisers are ranked by bid and ad quality. We introduce a new nonparametric estimator for the advertiser's ad value and its distribution under the 'incomplete information' assumption. The ad value is characterized by...

This paper presents an empirical model of sponsored search auctions where advertisers are ranked by bid and ad quality. Our model is developed under the 'incomplete information' setting with a general quality scoring rule. We establish nonparametric identification of the advertiser's valuation...

In this paper, I derive a new method to identify the distribution of the advertiser's ad-value in the sponsored search auction, explicitly looking at weighted Generalized Second Price auction (GSPw henceforth). Compared to previous literature, this method incorporates a weaker and more realistic...

Purpose: This study attempts to identify the cause of the failure of a platform operator in a P2P lending market, from the perspective of the internal credit rating system. Design/methodology/approach: Data from Moneyauction, the first P2P lending platform in Korea, which led the market for a...
