Abstract: An online concierge system trains a machine learning conversion model that predicts a probability of receiving an order from a user when the user accesses the online concierge system. The conversion model predicts the probability of receiving the order based on a set of input features that include price and availability information. For each access to the online concierge system, the online concierge system applies the conversion model to a current price and availability and to an optimal price availability. The online concierge system generates a metric as the difference between the two predicted probabilities of receiving an order.

Abstract: An online concierge system displays an interface to a user identifying an estimated time of arrival for an order. To generate the estimated time of arrival for the order, the online concierge system trains a prediction engine to predict delivery time based on a predicted selection time for a shopper to select the order for fulfillment and predicted travel time for the shopper to deliver items of the order to a location identified by the order. The online concierge system generates a policy optimization model that computes an adjustment for the predicted delivery time. The adjustment is determined by solving a stochastic optimization problem with a constraint on a probability of the order being delivered after the estimated time of arrival. The predicted delivery time combined with the adjustment determines the estimated time of delivery displayed to the user to balance between minimizing late deliveries and wait times.

Abstract: An online concierge system assigns shoppers to fulfill orders from users. To allocate shoppers, the online concierge system predicts future supply and demand for the shoppers' services for different time windows. To forecast a supply of shoppers, the online concierge system trains a machine learning model that estimates future supply based on access to a shopper mobile application through which the shoppers obtain new assignments by shoppers. The online concierge system also forecasts future orders. The online concierge system estimates a supply gap in a future time period by selecting a target time to accept for shoppers to accept orders and determining a corresponding ratio of number of shoppers and number of orders. The online concierge system may adjust a number of shoppers allocated to the future time period to achieve the determined ratio number of shoppers and number of orders.
