Unintentional data

The Unofficial Google Data Science Blog

1]" Statistics, as a discipline, was largely developed in a small data world. Yet when we use these tools to explore data and look for anomalies or interesting features, we are implicitly formulating and testing hypotheses after we have observed the outcomes. We must correct for multiple hypothesis tests.

Similarly, we could test the effectiveness of a search ad compared to showing only organic search results. Structure of a geo experiment A typical geo experiment consists of two distinct time periods: pretest and test. After the test period finishes, the campaigns in the treatment group are reset to their original configurations.
