This paper studied an integrated incentivization mechanism that realisticly models subjects` behavioral response to different types of incentives and optimizes the incentive allocation with a control optimizer.

This paper extends the dynamically formulated hidden Markov models to a high-order hidden Markov model (HO-HMM) formulation. In the HO-HMM, the Markovian assumption that the future states (interpreted as the states of preferences or attitudes) depend only on the current state has been relaxed. Instead, the HO-HMM generalizes that the future states will depend on a number of states occurring beforehand.
