Abstract: This invention concerns optimal ad selection for Web pages by selecting and updating an attribute set, obtaining and updating an ad-attribute profile, and optimally choosing the next ad. The present invention associates a set of attributes with each customer. The attributes reflect the customers' interests and they incorporate the characteristics that impact ad selection. Similarly, the present invention associates with each ad an ad-attribute profile in order to calculate a customer's estimated ad selection probability and measure the uncertainty in that estimate. An ad selection algorithm optimally selects which ad to show based on the click probability estimates and the uncertainties regarding these estimates.

Abstract: A system and method for achieving optimal advertising is disclosed. In Internet advertising embodiments, small quantities of experimental advertising banner designs are tested to extract valuable information from the experiments. One or more embodiments can also incorporate array mathematics to help select and analyze the ad design elements that improve the results (e.g., click-thru-rate, revenue-per-impression, etc.) of the overall advertising campaigns. Embodiments of the present invention can also utilize a process of identifying influential design elements, selecting and testing banners representative of such design elements, obtaining feedback, and analyzing it to extract information from the experiments about which design elements are most important and which combination of design elements lead to the best overall banner.
