Improvements on Trained Across Multiple Experiments (TAME), a New Method for Treatment Effect DetectionPatikorn, Thanaporn 08 May 2017 (has links)
One of my previous works introduced a new data mining technique to analyze multiple experiments called TAME: Trained Across Multiple Experiments. TAME detects treatment effects of a randomized controlled experiment by utilizing data from outside of the experiment of interest. TAME with linear regression showed promising result; in all simulated scenarios, TAME was at least as good as a standard method, ANOVA, and was significantly better than ANOVA in certain scenarios. In this work, I further investigated and improved TAME by altering how TAME assembles data and creates subject models. I found that mean-centering “prior� data and treating each experiment as equally important allow TAME to detect treatment effects better. In addition, we did not find Random Forest to be compatible with TAME.
