Abstract
Techniques for evaluating a user experience experiment designed to use one user experience variant selected from a number of user experience variants as a global-best user experience variant to be used across users relative to a machine model trained to use user data to identify a user-preferred user experience variant. Disclosed systems and methods provide techniques for optimizing user response. In one embodiment, a global-best user experience variant is evaluated by comparing an aggregate user response determined for the global-best user experience variant to an aggregate user response determined using user response predictions determined using the trained machine model, and using the outcome of the comparison to make a recommendation as to which one of the global-best user experience variant and the trained machine model to adopt for providing a user experience to users.
