The model functionality in Mix Modeler allows you to configure, train, and score models specific to your business objectives. The training and scoring supports AI-driven transfer learning between multitouch attribution and marketing mix modeling.

The models are based on the harmonized data that you create as part of the Mix Modeler application workflow.

A model in Mix Modeler is a machine learning model employed to measure and predict a specified outcome based on a marketer鈥檚 investments. Marketing touchpoints and summary-level data can be used as an input. Mix Modeler allows you to create variants of models based on different sets of variables, dimensions, and outcomes, such as revenues, units sold, leads.

A model requires:

  • One conversion.
  • One or more marketing touchpoints (channels) comprised of summary-level data, marketing touchpoint data (event data) or both.
  • A configurable lookback window.
  • A configurable training window.

A model can optionally include:

  • External factors.
  • Internal factors.
  • Prior knowledge of marketing contributions from other sources such as past stakeholder experience, incrementally testing, other models.
  • Spend share, which uses relative spend share as a proxy when marketing data is sparse.

When a model is first created, the creation immediately kicks off the training and scoring process. After the completion of the initial training and scoring run, model insights are available for review. A model may subsequently be re-trained. Also, data may be added to the model which requires you to rescore the model manually. Re-trainng and re-scoring are an iterative process as new findings and information emerge and adjustments are needed to obtain a model fit that is most appropriate for your business objectives.

Build models

To build a model, use the Mix Modeler step-by-step guided model configuration flow available when you select Open model canvas. See Build models for more details.

Manage models

To view a table of your current models, in the Mix Modeler interface:

  1. Select Models from the left rail.

  2. You see a table of the current models.

    The table columns specify details about the model.

    table 0-row-2 1-row-2 2-row-2 3-row-2 4-row-2 5-row-2 6-row-2 layout-auto
    Column name Details
    Name Name of the model
    Description Description of the model
    Conversion event The conversion you have selected for the model.
    Run frequency The running frequency of training the model.
    Last run The date and time of the last training of the model.
    Status The status of the model.

    The reported status of the model is dependent on where a model is within its lifecycle. For example, whether a model is created, (re-)trained successfully or not, or (re-)scored successfully or not.

    In the table below:

    • Checkmark - indicates a successful execution of a step in the model lifecycle.
    • Clock - indicates a current ongoing execution of a step in the model lifecycle.
    • Close - indicates a failed execution of a step in the model lifecycle.

  3. To change the columns displayed for the list, select Column settings and toggle columns on Check or off.

You can take the following actions on a specific model.

Model insights

The model insights functionality is only available on successfully trained and scored models.

To view the insights of a model:

  1. Select Models from the left rail.

  2. Select the model name.

You are redirected to Model Insights.

View details

To view more details of a model:

  1. Select Models from the left rail.

  2. Select Info for a model to show a pop-up with details.

Duplicate

You can quickly duplicate a model.

  1. Select Models from the left rail.

  2. Select More for a model, and from the context menu select Duplicate.

You are redirected to the steps to create a new model, with a proposed name composed of the original model鈥檚 name appended with (Copy) (n).
