SHARING WHAT WORKS AND KNOWING WHY | June 22–25, 2014 • Santa Fe, NM
JOIN US IN SANTA FE!
On the 25th anniversary of the AMA’s Advanced Research Techniques (ART) Forum,
we’ve freshened up the program to make it an even better experience for you.
The ART Forum has been called a “journeyman” conference — the place to discover practical
solutions, share methods, opinion and also code. While we have a strong academic presence,
our role is to guide the mid-level solution rather than refinement.
This year, we’re opening up the conference to some new audiences: marketing mix modelers,
statistically oriented data scientists and the legal community. In these fields, new data and
emerging methods demand an understanding not just of how something works but why.
Hence, this year’s conference theme: “Sharing What Works and Knowing Why.”
In addition, we are strengthening areas that are traditional ART Forum topics (e.g., choice and
conjoint, segmentation) and building on recent efforts to expand the conference to topics such
as big data, visualization, text analysis, unstructured data and social networks.
Join your fellow researchers and colleagues from across the industry to find solutions to
marketing problems through the free exchange of ideas and methodologies. The ART Forum
is about science — discovering and sharing what works. You’ll come away with a deeper
appreciation of what models can and cannot do and new connections with peers who share
the same interests and challenges.
We look forward to seeing you in June!

KEYNOTE (Chris Chapman, Session Leader)
Bayes and Big Data
Steven Scott, Senior Economic Analyst, Google
Big data sometimes poses big problems for statistical theory, depending on just how big the data is and on
the specific research question. Steven Scott of Google will describe computational and statistical trade-offs
associated with various strategies for big data problems. He will then present the “Consensus Monte Carlo”
algorithm, which efficiently scales Bayesian computations by partitioning data across multiple machines
and then combining draws from the multiple posterior distributions into a global posterior.
TEXT ANALYSIS (Joachim Büschken, Session Leader)
Computational Linguistics and Learning from Big Data
Gabriel Doyle, University of California, San Diego
Between social media, blogs and product review sites, the Internet provides marketing researchers with
data of unprecedented size and informativity. But extracting the relevant information from these big data
sources requires careful thinking and new analysis techniques. This talk provides an overview of common
unsupervised learning problems and solutions from computational linguistics, such as parsing, sentiment
analysis, named-entity recognition and information extraction, which can be used to automatically identify
the important information lurking in large unstructured text data sets.
Detecting Customer Experience Web Comments and their Drivers of Satisfaction
Kurt A. Pflughoeft, Director of Marketing Sciences, Maritz Research
Consumer-generated media is often littered with information that is not part of a customer’s experience
with a product or service. Being able to filter out as much irrelevant data as possible is important to make
sure that the true customer feedback is still discernible. Additionally, processing unstructured data must
go beyond simple word clouds and sentiment to understand the drivers of satisfaction. This research
examines several supervised techniques to remove irrelevant data and then applies key driver analysis to
the unstructured data.
Using Text Analysis of Unstructured Data to Navigate a World without Questions
John Fix, Advanced Analytics Innovation, Procter & Gamble
P&G serves almost 5 billion consumers around the world and relies on survey methods to guide its
understanding of its products, markets and communications. This reliance has become a burden on
resources — time and money — to stay in touch with consumers in markets across hundreds of
brands. Text analysis of unstructured data has the potential to sample from an unprecedented base size
of consumers across content that narrates, critiques, advocates and provides measure of consumers’

attitudes and behaviors. Sampling from this stream of information provides technical challenges as the data
needs to be filtered for relevancy, analyzed for attributes and themes, and potentially modeled for measures
such as brand equity. It is the intent of the presentation to share the motivation for applying unstructured
data analysis, potential applications and challenges experienced.

MARKETING MIX (Stephen Garry, Session Leader)
Attribution Modeling: State-of-the-Art and Beyond
P. K. Kannan, Professor of Marketing Science, University of Maryland
Presentation will focus on (a) comparing alternative attribution models on dimensions of theoretical basis,
estimation techniques, granularity of data analyzed, ability to estimate spillover and carryover effects, and
suitability for marketing mix implementations, and (b) challenges in dealing with big data, integrating online
and offline channels, incomplete data, and controllable versus uncontrollable elements of the customer
purchase funnel.
Modeling Advertising Effects in a Multi-media Environment —
A Latent Class Latent Markov Chain Approach
Carsten Stig Poulsen, Professor, Aalborg University
A new approach to the measurement of advertising effects in a multi-media environment, based on
consumer panel data, is presented. We formulate a dynamic, individual model that can be used for
descriptive, predictive, segmentation and — potentially — optimization purposes. It may even be utilized
during an ongoing campaign to monitor and eventually correct the media plan. The model is based on
recent advances in latent Markov modeling and views advertising and its effects as interactive stochastic
processes that unfold over time, influenced by the impact of advertising. The model is demonstrated by a
real but disguised application.
How Linking Marketing Mix Modeling and Copy Testing Can Improve
Advertising Performance
Ashish Joshi, Senior Director, Advanced Analytics, The Clorox Company
Stephen Garry, Director, Market Analytics, Hewlett-Packard
With billions of dollars spent on TV advertising every year, a persistent problem has been determining how
much to spend on an ad before it airs. We show how copy test scores can be used to accurately predict inmarket performance of ad executions, making it possible to optimize spending on ads before they enter the
market. This work has caused significant changes in pre-market testing behavior at Clorox and improved
advertising ROI.
Marketing ROI Measurement and Big-ish Data
Ross-boy Link, President, Global MROI Solutions, Nielsen
Is big data big hype? Current developments in marketing ROI measurement are the culmination of 20
years of valiant attempts by our industry at using so-called “single source” data. Big data is truly coming to
marketing measurement, and it’s bringing big changes, so get ready. But don’t throw everything you know
out the window just yet...

VISUALIZATION (Chris Chapman, Session Leader)
Visualizations of Model Output via Interactive Dashboards
Sergiy O. Nesterko, Principal, Theory LLC
Mark Garratt, Partner and Co-Founder, in4mation insights
Steve Cohen, Partner and Co-Founder, in4mation insights
With more data and increasingly complex models, the amount of analytic information grows exponentially.
We present two case studies in marketing mix optimization and consumer segmentation where interactive
visualization gives the end-user more control and understanding of the analytic process, and discuss pros
and cons of using interactive visualization in practice.
Visualizing Big Data: Methodology and Applications for Tuneable Maps
Stephen Bell, Senior Partner, Bell Falla and Associates
Tuneable maps are perceptual maps that are optimized in terms of both managerial criteria (e.g.,
comprehensibility) and statistical fit. Briefly, we augment a statistical fitting algorithm with “tuneable”
parameters (e.g., dispersion) that help to define a useful map. A large patient records database is used to
illustrate the methodology.
SOCIAL NETWORKS (Peter Ebbes, Session Leader)
Enterprise Social Network Formation on Yammer
Hema Yoganarasimhan, Assistant Professor of Management, University of California, Davis
Enterprise social networks are networks between employees in a firm or between people who interact
with each other for business activities. Enterprise networks are used for one-to-one as well as one-tomany communications and collaboration. We study factors that affect the formation of enterprise social
networks, using data from the leading enterprise software — Yammer. Specifically, we identify the network
externalities associated with past adoption on current adoption. We quantify how these externalities affect
the speed of network growth and size of the eventual network. We also examine how adoption of the
network by the firm (or the business) affects the overall adoption of the network and the use of the network
by the employees.

How the Establishment of Same-Carrier Ego Networks Impacts
Prepaid Mobile Carrier Engagement
Olly Downs, SVP, Data Sciences, Globys
Globys leverages telecom billing data to drive contextual in-base marketing activity for mobile operators.
Uniquely we are able to perform whole-base social network analytics for a carrier based on voice and SMS
interactions, in conjunction with conducting live marketing experiments.
One particular challenge for prepaid mobile operators that SIM activations that do not quickly turn into
revenue-generating usage, often driven by misalignment of dealer incentives and customer benefits with
those of the carrier. It is common, for example, for dealers to be compensated by carriers per activated
SIM, irrespective of whether the SIM becomes a commercially active line. Further, customers will often
acquire SIMs for the mobile carrier networks of their friends and family to exploit unlimited in-network
mobile-to-mobile calling and free inbound calls.
In this work, we have explored the focal and ego-network impacts of an SMS marketing campaign designed
to incent customers with activated SIMs who have not yet added balance to the line to do so and to initiate
commercial activity, testing the hypothesis that it is the development of an ego-network on that carrier that
impacts the propensity for a customer to engage in the offer.

UPPER LEVEL MODELING (Thomas C. Eagle, Session Leader)
How to Generalize from a Hierarchical Model?
Max Pachali, Goethe University
Peter Kurz, Head of Research and Development, TNS Infratest
Thomas Otter, Professor of Marketing, Goethe University
When hierarchical models are fit to a sample of observational units — e.g., a representative sample
of consumers in a product category participating in a discrete choice experiment — the relevant
generalization for marketing decisions is to observational units from the same population not included in
the sample. However, current choice simulators aimed at informing decisions that pertain to the entire
population of consumers predict market shares based on simulated decisions of the consumers included in
the sample. We probe into the merits and pitfalls of this practice vis-à-vis approaches that directly rely on
the hierarchical prior using data from several different commercial discrete choice experiments.
Choice & Conjoint: Using the Upper Level of an HB Model
Paul Richard “Dick” McCullough, President, MACRO Consulting, Inc.
This presentation explores the impact of a wide variety of covariates in the upper model of HB estimation
routines. In a single-cell design, numerous potential covariates will be inserted into a questionnaire that also
contains a CBC exercise. Sample will be generated from a panel that contains extensive digital behavior
information on panel members. These data will be appended to the survey data and also examined for
efficacy.

Integrating Self Stated Data into Choice Models without Bias
Kevin Karty, VP Analytics, Affinnova, Inc.
This session provides a simple mechanism for integrating self-stated data into a hierarchical Bayesian
choice model without suffering from the bias induced by other ad-hoc methods. Specifically, self-stated
data can be integrated as a covariate in the upper level of the choice model simply by defining group
membership based on self-stated responses to questions about feature preference or importance. This
maintains the integrity of the underlying assumptions of the choice model, such as equal error variance in
choices, which are violated by other approaches. The resulting model can strengthen simulated switching
behavior and improve overall accuracy.
Trading Upper Level Model Supervision for Data Augments and
Respondent Level Regression
Kevin Lattery, VP Marketing Sciences, Maritz Research
Respondent level regressions are flexible and give analysts complete control at the respondent level. These
approaches use data augments rather than an upper level model of means and covariances. We discuss
previous research on data augment methods, how the augments can be extended, and introduce a new
source for data augments: latent class ensembles. We compare these data augment methods against each
other and benchmark them against HB.

SEGMENTATION (Jacqueline Dawley, Session Leader)
Monitoring Shifts in Product Feature Importance via Trends in Online Searches
Ye Hu, Associate Professor of Marketing, Bauer College of Business, University of Houston
Sina Damangir, Doctoral Student, University of Houston
Rex Yuxing Du, Marvin Hurley Associate Professor of Marketing, Bauer College of Business,
University of Houston
Various factors beyond the control of marketers can lead to changes in the relative importance of different
product features in shaping consumers’ purchase decisions. Such changes in turn can lead to substantial
shifts in the relative attractiveness of products offering different feature levels. To marketers, the challenge
lies in finding a reliable yet cost-effective way to track the relative weights consumers place on different
product features. In the context of the U.S. automotive market, we explore the potential of using trends
in online searches for feature-related keywords as proxies for trends in the relative importance of five
common features in determining vehicle sales, i.e., fuel economy, acceleration, body type, cost to buy and
cost to operate. By augmenting marketing mix data with feature search data in a sales response model, we
show substantial improvements in both in- and out-of-sample fit. Furthermore, by examining the dynamic
relationship between trends in vehicle feature searches and vehicle sales, we show how the evolution of
feature search intensity can be leveraged to allow marketers to respond more proactively.

Bayesian Co-Clustering of Dyadic CPG Purchase Data
Ewa Nowakowska, Director Marketing Science, GfK
Joseph Retzer, VP Advanced Analytics, CMI Research
This paper presents an overview of Bayesian co-clustering of dyadic market research data. Specifically,
we show a Bayesian co-clustering of survey based shopper CPG purchase. Clustering is performed
simultaneously on both rows (shoppers) and columns (products) of the data matrix. The approach offers
numerous benefits beyond standard clustering methods that ignore inherent dyadic relationships in
the data. In addition, unlike standard co-clustering methods which are primarily partitional, Bayesian
co-clustering allows for mixed membership of rows/columns in respective clusters, which is a natural
requirement in the context of shopper-product relations.
