Abstract

Roughly described, the technology disclosed provides a so-called machine-learned conversion optimization (MLCO) system that uses artificial neural networks and evolutionary computations to efficiently identify most successful webpage designs in a search space without testing all possible webpage designs in the search space. The search space is defined based on webpage designs provided by marketers. Neural networks are represented as genomes. Neural networks map user attributes from live user traffic to different dimensions and dimension values of output funnels that are presented to the users in real time. The genomes are subjected to evolutionary operations like initialization, testing, competition, and procreation to identify parent genomes that perform well and offspring genomes that are likely to perform well.

Abstract

Roughly described, a system for user identification of a desired document. A database is provided which identifies a catalog of documents in an embedding space, the database identifying a distance in the embedding space between each pair of documents corresponding to a predetermined measure of dissimilarity between the pair of documents. The system presents an initial collection of the documents toward the user, from an initial candidate space which is part of the embedding space. The system then iteratively refines the candidate space using geometric constraints on the embedding space determined in response to relative feedback by the user. At each iteration the system identifies to the user a subset of documents from the then-current candidate space, based on which the user provides the relative feedback. In an embodiment, these subsets of documents are more discriminative than the average discriminativeness of similar sets of documents in the then-current candidate space.

Abstract

A method for finding a best solution to a problem is provided. The method includes evolving candidate individuals in a candidate pool by testing each candidate individual of the candidate individuals to obtain test results, assigning a performance measure to each of the tested candidate individuals in dependence upon the test results, discarding candidate individuals from the candidate pool in dependence upon their assigned performance measure, and adding, to the candidate pool, a new candidate individual procreated from parent candidate individuals remaining in the candidate pool, and repeating the evolution steps to evolve the candidate individuals in the candidate pool. The method further includes selecting, as a winning candidate individual, a candidate individual from the candidate pool having a best probability to beat a predetermined score, the probability to beat the predetermined score being determined in dependence upon a Bayesian posterior probability distribution of a particular candidate individual.

Abstract

A method for identifying a desired document is provided to include forming K clusters of documents and, for each cluster: for each respective document of the cluster determining a sum of distances between (i) the respective document and (ii) each of the other documents of the cluster; and identifying a medoid document of the cluster as the document of the cluster having the smallest sum of determined distances of all of the documents of the cluster. The method also includes selecting M representative documents for each cluster, identifying for dynamic display toward the user K groupings of documents, wherein each of the K groupings of documents identifies the selected M representative documents of a corresponding cluster, and, in response to user selection of one of the K groupings of documents, identifying for dynamic display toward the user P documents of the cluster that corresponds to the selected grouping.

Abstract

The technology disclosed is generally directed to massively multivariate testing, conversion rate optimization, and product recommendation and, in particular, directed to automatically and autonomously placing conversion code (e.g., scripts) in webpages of a host website without requiring any affirmative action on the part of the host. The conversion code modifies display and functionality of a particular portion of a host webpage without modifying other portions of the host webpage. The conversion code is placed by a website modification service which is limitedly authorized by the host to modify only the particular portion of the host webpage under a product recommendation and/or conversion rate optimization scheme.

Abstract

A method for identifying a desired document is provided to include calculating a Prior probability score for each document of a candidate list including a portion of documents of an embedding space, the Prior probability score indicating a preliminary probability, for each document of the candidate list, that the document is the desired document, and identifying an initial (i=0) collection of N0>1 candidate documents from the candidate list in dependence on the calculated Prior probability scores, the initial collection of candidate documents having fewer documents than the candidate list. The method further includes, for each i'th iteration in a plurality of iterations, beginning with a first iteration (i=1) and in response to user selection of an i'th selected document from the (i−1)'th collection of candidate documents, identifying an i'th collection of Ni>1 candidate documents from the candidate list in dependence on Posterior probability scores.

Abstract

Roughly described, a system for user identification of a desired document. A database is provided which identifies a catalog of documents in an embedding space, the database identifying a distance in the embedding space between each pair of documents corresponding to a predetermined measure of dissimilarity between the pair of documents. The system presents an initial collection of the documents toward the user, from an initial candidate space which is part of the embedding space. The system then iteratively refines the candidate space using geometric constraints on the embedding space determined in response to relative feedback by the user. At each iteration the system identifies to the user a subset of documents from the then-current candidate space, based on which the user provides the relative feedback. In an embodiment, these subsets of documents are more discriminative than the average discriminativeness of similar sets of documents in the then-current candidate space.
