We introduce the conditional restricted Boltzmann machine as method to analyze brand-level market basket data of individual households. The conditional restricted Boltzmann machine includes marketing variables and household attributes as independent variables. To our knowledge this is the first...

A regressor is endogenous if it is correlated with the unobserved residual of a model. Ignoring endogeneity may lead to biased coefficients. We deal with the omitted variable bias that arises if firms set marketing variables considering factors (demand shocks) that researchers do not observe....
