Towards optimal experimentation in online systems

The Unofficial Google Data Science Blog

If $Y$ at that point is (statistically and practically) significantly better than our current operating point, and that point is deemed acceptable, we update the system parameters to this better value. Figure 2: Spreading measurements out makes estimates of model (slope of line) more accurate. And sometimes even if it is not[1].)

To Balance or Not to Balance?

The Unofficial Google Data Science Blog

A naïve way to solve this problem would be to compare the proportion of buyers between the exposed and unexposed groups, using a simple test for equality of means. Identification We now discuss formally the statistical problem of causal inference. We start by describing the problem using standard statistical notation.
