Abstract
This disclosure provides techniques for facilitating modeling responses to variable parameters, and in particular embodiments, within the context of a price setting strategy for a retail club. A trained member response metric model may be trained using a training corpus. A modified price for a target item may be then be predicted, and used to calculate a predicted demand for the target item. The predicted demand may be used to calculate predicted sales of the target item, after which predict a member response metric score associated with the modified price may be determined using the first trained member response metric model and the predicted sales.
