Multi-Touch Attribution Based Budget Allocation in Online Advertising
Budget allocation in online advertising deals with distributing the campaign
(insertion order) level budgets to different sub-campaigns which employ
different targeting criteria and may perform differently in terms of
return-on-investment (ROI). In this paper, we present the efforts at Turn on
how to best allocate campaign budget so that the advertiser or campaign-level
ROI is maximized. To do this, it is crucial to be able to correctly determine
the performance of sub-campaigns. This determination is highly related to the
action-attribution problem, i.e. to be able to find out the set of ads, and
hence the sub-campaigns that provided them to a user, that an action should be
attributed to. For this purpose, we employ both last-touch (last ad gets all
credit) and multi-touch (many ads share the credit) attribution methodologies.
We present the algorithms deployed at Turn for the attribution problem, as well
as their parallel implementation on the large advertiser performance datasets.
We conclude the paper with our empirical comparison of last-touch and
multi-touch attribution-based budget allocation in a real online advertising
setting.Comment: This paper has been published in ADKDD 2014, August 24, New York

Recurrent spontaneous ovarıan hyperstımulatıon ın a virgın girl
Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) develops due to the release of vasoactive mediators induced by excessively luteinized and enlarged ovaries. Most OHSS cases are iatrogenic subsequent to ovulation induction. We report the first case of recurrent OHSS developed during normal menstral cycle in a virgin girl, diagnozed with ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging
A parallel fully-coupled fluid-structure interaction simulation of a cerebral aneurysm
A parallel fully-coupled approach has been developed for the fluid-structure interaction problem in a cerebral artery with aneurysm. An Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian formulation based on the side-centered unstructured finite volume method [2] is employed for the governing incompressible Navier-Stokes equations and the classical Galerkin finite element formulation is used to discretize the constitutive law for the Saint VenantKirchhoff material in a Lagrangian frame for the solid domain. A special attention is given to construct an algorithm with exact fluid mass/volume conservation while obeying the global discrete geometric conservation law (DGCL). The resulting large-scale algebraic linear equations are solved using a one-level restricted additive Schwarz preconditioner with a block-incomplete factorization within each partitioned sub-domains. The parallel implementation of the present fully coupled unstructured fluid-structure solver is based on the PETSc library for improving the efficiency of the parallel algorithm. The proposed numerical algorithm is applied to a complicated problem involving unsteady pulsatile blood flow in a cerebral artery with aneurysm as a realistic fluid-structure interaction problem encountered in biomechanics
