Abstract

Various embodiments can reduce variance in a target metric (e.g., experiment outcome). Embodiments can use historical pre-experiment outcomes to predict a metric (forecasts) that is expected for a future measurement time. The forecasts can then be used as a covariate to reduce the variance of the target metric. When predicting forecasts, various embodiments can use an automation pipeline that can generate better and quicker forecasts. When there are multiple covariates that may be considered to reduce variance in the target metric, various embodiments can use a closed from solution for determining optimal coefficient of each covariate.
