  • 反向实验框架:仅用买卖单和成交价预测效率,不依赖诱导报价。
  • 早期预测准确:从最早订单就能预判分配效率,随成交价增加提升。
  • 适用于真实市场:对复杂非线性数据有效,可指导算法治理决策。

每年处理数十亿美元的数字交易平台是社会技术生态系统的关键基础设施,但其性能优化缺乏能指导算法治理决策的系统性测量框架。由于双拍卖市场中的买卖单不代表真实的最大购买意愿或最小出售意愿,经济学家难以评估市场的实际配置效率。为此,我们转向实验数据,采用反向诱导价值法。目标是仅使用订单簿数据(包括出价、要价和价格实现)尽早预测与市场效率相关的关键特征,特别是配置效率。由于缺乏战略最优行为的明确模型,且订单簿数据高度非结构化、非平稳且非线性,我们提出基于分位数的归一化方法,构建通用预测模型。我们训练了线性回归和梯度提升树等多种模型,利用底层供需模型的分位数输入。结果表明,这些模型能从最早的出价和要价中较准确预测配置效率,且随着更多成交价格数据的出现而持续改进。不同目标和市场类型下表现各异。该框架在真实市场数据中有显著应用潜力,可在任何交易发生前提供关于市场效率与性能的宝贵洞察。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Digital marketplaces processing billions of dollars annually represent critical infrastructure in sociotechnical ecosystems, yet their performance optimization lacks principled measurement frameworks that can inform algorithmic governance decisions regarding market efficiency and fairness from complex market data. By looking at orderbook data from double auction markets alone, because bids and asks do not represent true maximum willingnesses to buy and true minimum willingnesses to sell, there is little an economist can say about the market's actual performance in terms of allocative efficiency. We turn to experimental data to address this issue, `inverting' the standard induced value approach of double auction experiments. Our aim is to predict key market features relevant to market efficiency, particularly allocative efficiency, using orderbook data only -- specifically bids, asks and price realizations, but not the induced reservation values -- as early as possible. Since there is no established model of strategically optimal behavior in these markets, and because orderbook data is highly unstructured, non-stationary and non-linear, we propose quantile-based normalization techniques that help us build general predictive models. We develop and train several models, including linear regressions and gradient boosting trees, leveraging quantile-based input from the underlying supply-demand model. Our models can predict allocative efficiency with reasonable accuracy from the earliest bids and asks, and these predictions improve with additional realized price data. The performance of the prediction techniques varies by target and market type. Our framework holds significant potential for application to real-world market data, offering valuable insights into market efficiency and performance, even prior to any trade realizations.
