Deep Knowledge: Next Step After Deep Learning

Assume an individual is represented by a multidimensional utility function that maps to the customer satisfaction domain. This function contains non-linear features and numerous feedback loops which may be negative, positive or either depending on market conditions. To illustrate, let's consider hyperbolic discounting, a well-established non-linear feature from behavior economics. As an exponential, small changes in the market interest rate can cause large changes in value perception. Each individual will have a different response ranging from almost none to dramatic changes in consumption and investment behavior. A change in interest rates could dramatically alter the cluster membership.
