Sample size determination in sequential hypothesis testing

Abstract:

Sample size determination techniques in sequential hypothesis testing in a digital medium environment are described. The sample size may be determined before a test to define a number of samples (e.g., user interactions with digital marketing content) that are likely to be tested as part of the sequential hypothesis testing in order to achieve a result. The sample size may also be determined in real time to define a number of samples that likely remain for testing in order to achieve a result. The sample size may be determined in a variety of ways, such as through simulation, based on a gap between conversion rates for different options being tested, and so on.
