Abstract

Embodiments are disclosed for predicting target events occurrence for an advertisement campaign. A computing device according to some embodiments assigns a label to an advertisement as unlabeled, in response to a notification that a prerequisite event occurs for the advertisement. The device generates feature vectors based on data that relate to the advertisement. The device further trains a machine learning model using the feature vectors of the unlabeled advertisement based on a first term of an objective function, without waiting for a target event for the advertisement to occur. The first term depends on unlabeled advertisements. The device predicts a probability of a target event occurring for a new advertisement, by feeding data of the new advertisement to the trained machine learning model.
