Patent attributes
Roughly described, the technology disclosed provides a so-called machine-learned conversion optimization (MLCO) system that uses artificial neural networks and evolutionary computations to efficiently identify most successful webpage designs in a search space without testing all possible webpage designs in the search space. The search space is defined based on webpage designs provided by marketers. Neural networks are represented as genomes. Neural networks map user attributes from live user traffic to different dimensions and dimension values of output funnels that are presented to the users in real time. The genomes are subjected to evolutionary operations like initialization, testing, competition, and procreation to identify parent genomes that perform well and offspring genomes that are likely to perform well.
