A system including one or more processors and one or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing computing instructions configured to run on the one or more processors and perform: displaying content elements on one or more websites to users; tracking respective impression response data for each impression of a respective content element of the content elements comprising (a) a respective response of a respective user of the users and (b) a respective time of the respective response of the respective user; determining respective weightings of the content elements based on posterior distributions using the respective impression response data, as adjusted by a temporal decay factor, based on the respective times of the respective impression response data for the content elements; and generating a webpage of the one or more web sites to comprise a selected content element based on the respective weighting of the selected content element. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Automated mechanisms to resolve explore-exploit dilemma with adaptive revival opportunities

A system including one or more processors and one or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing computing instructions configured to run on the one or more processors and perform: displaying content elements on one or more websites to users; performing a classification of the users into segments; receiving a request from a first user of the users to display a webpage of the one or more websites; determining an amount of information in a respective posterior distribution of each of the one or more first segments of the segments in which the first user is classified, for each of the content elements based on impression response data; selecting a selected content element from among the content elements based on weightings of the content elements for the one or more first segments; and generating the webpage comprising the selected content element. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Personalized mechanisms to resolve explore-exploit dilemma with dynamically shared learnings

A method including displaying content elements on one or more websites to users. This method can also include tracking impression response data comprising (a) a response of the user to the content element of the content elements displayed on the one or more websites and (b) a time of the response of the user. Additionally, the method can include receiving a request from a first user. The method can further include determining weightings of the content elements based on posterior distributions using the impression response data, as adjusted by a temporal decay factor based on the times of the impression response data for the content elements. The method additionally can include generating the webpage to comprise the selected content element. Other embodiments are disclosed.

A method including displaying content elements on one or more websites to users. The classification of the users into segments can be based on each impression of content elements being displayed on the one or more websites to a user of the users, tracking impression response data comprising (a) a response of the user to the content element of the content elements displayed on the one or more websites, and (b) one or more segments of the segments in which the user is classified. The method can also include receiving a request from a first user. The method can also include generating a mixture distribution for the first segment for the first content element based on the impression response data for the first segment and generating the webpage to comprise the selected content element. Other embodiments are disclosed.
