Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional systems for displaying advertisement creatives on webpages lack the ability to optimize the frequency of creative display based on their conversion rates, leading to suboptimal click-through and conversion rates for ecommerce websites.

Innovation Solution

A system that generates predefined frequency weights for advertisement creatives based on their conversion rates, allowing for real-time optimization of which creatives are displayed more frequently, thereby maximizing conversion rates without perceived lag in user experience.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If conventional systems select each advertisement creative at equal or random frequencies, then all creatives have equal display opportunity, but the total conversion rate of the advertisement campaign is suboptimal

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveconversion rateVSAvoiddisplay frequency optimization
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system changes the display frequency parameter of advertisement creatives based on their measured conversion rates. By dynamically adjusting the frequency weight parameter for each creative, the system optimizes the overall campaign conversion rate rather than using equal or random distribution.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements a feedback mechanism where conversion rates of displayed creatives are measured and used to adjust future display frequencies. This closed-loop feedback enables continuous optimization of the advertisement campaign performance.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Reliability

If the system optimizes advertisement creative display frequencies in real-time, then conversion rates are maximized, but computational complexity and processing time increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveconversion rate optimizationVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary measurements of conversion rates for each advertisement creative before using these metrics to optimize display frequencies. By gathering performance data in advance and using it to pre-calculate optimal frequencies, the system reduces real-time computational complexity while maintaining optimization benefits.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Reliability

If advertisement creatives with higher conversion rates are displayed more frequently, then total conversion rate increases, but less effective creatives receive fewer display opportunities

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetotal conversion rateVSAvoidcreative rotation flexibility
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The system adjusts the display frequency parameter for each creative based on its performance, allowing dynamic adaptation of the rotation strategy. This parameter-based control enables the system to balance between exploiting high-performing creatives and exploring others.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

AI summary

Systems and methods including one or more processing modules and one or more non-transitory storage modules storing computing instructions configured to run on the one or more processing modules and perform acts of receiving a plurality of advertisement creatives for an advertisement campaign, generating first predefined frequency weights for the plurality of advertisement creatives, and coordinating a display of the plurality of advertisement creatives within the impression slot of the webpages displayed to the online users based on the first predefined frequency weights. The first predefined frequency weights include a weighted frequency that each advertisement creative of the plurality of advertisement creatives should be displayed to the online users. A first advertisement creative of the can be displayed more frequently than a second advertisement creative because the first advertisement comprises a first frequency weight that is higher than a second frequency weight of the second advertisement creative.
