Setting up a Bayesian A/B Experiment
Once you've logged in and chosen to create new experiment from the landing page (see this guide), here's how to set up your Bayesian A/B experiment.
Fill out the experiment details
Enter the details for the experiment. Both Experiment Name
field and Description
are mandatory. Select Bayesian A/B Testing
as the experiment type.
Click on the Next
button to proceed.
Choose your prior and outcome type
Choose the outcome type: either binary or real-valued.
Click on the Next
button to proceed.
Create experiment arms
Currently, you can have exactly 2 arms for the A/B test: a treatment and control arm.
Enter details for each arm. The Name
and Description
fields are both mandatory.
The priors are defined through the Mean
and Standard Deviation
parameters of the Gaussian distributions: the default values are 0
and 1
respectively.
Click on the Next
button to proceed.
Once you've set up notfications and created the experiment, you can now run the experiment with your users, in the same way as you would for MABs.
