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. In isolation, the $x_1$-system is optimal: changing $x_1$ and leaving the $x_2$ at 0 will decrease system performance.

To Balance or Not to Balance?

The Unofficial Google Data Science Blog

In an ideal world, experimentation through randomization of the treatment assignment allows the identification and consistent estimation of causal effects. Identification We now discuss formally the statistical problem of causal inference. We start by describing the problem using standard statistical notation.

Although it’s not perfect, [Note: These are statistical approximations, of course!] At the time—in 2014—the three were colleagues working. You can home in on an optimal value by specifying, say, 32 dimensions and varying this value by powers of 2. s lead may not be the optimal choice. Example 11.6 Pennington, J.,
