Script 1145: AdGroup CPA Outlier
Purpose
The script identifies and tags AdGroups with abnormally high Cost Per Acquisition (CPA) performance within a campaign over a 30-day lookback period, excluding the most recent day.
To Elaborate
The Python script is designed to detect and tag AdGroups within advertising campaigns that exhibit unusually high Cost Per Acquisition (CPA) performance. It analyzes data over a 30-day period, excluding the most recent day to account for conversion lag. The script uses statistical methods to identify outliers in CPA performance, specifically employing the Interquartile Range (IQR) method to determine anomalies. By comparing each AdGroup’s CPA against the campaign’s average, the script flags those with significantly higher CPA values. This helps in identifying potential inefficiencies or issues in the advertising strategy, allowing for targeted adjustments to improve overall campaign performance.
Walking Through the Code
- Configurable Parameters
- The script begins by defining user-changeable parameters such as
ANOMALY_IQR_THRESHOLD
,LOOKBACK_DAYS
, andCONVERSION_LAG_DAYS
. These parameters control the sensitivity of anomaly detection and the period of data analysis.
- The script begins by defining user-changeable parameters such as
- Data Preparation
- The script filters the input data to include only the relevant 30-day period, excluding the most recent day. It then reduces the dataset to essential columns and aggregates performance metrics like cost, conversions, revenue, and clicks by AdGroup within each campaign.
- Anomaly Detection Functions
- Functions are defined to identify anomalies using the IQR method. The
get_feature_anomalies
function calculates upper and lower bounds for each feature and identifies outliers. Theis_anomaly_iqr
function specifically applies the IQR method to detect anomalies in CPA performance.
- Functions are defined to identify anomalies using the IQR method. The
- Identifying CPA Anomalies
- The script iterates over each campaign, calculating the median CPA and identifying AdGroups with CPA significantly higher than the campaign average. It uses the
find_peer_anomaly
function to determine if an AdGroup’s CPA is an outlier.
- The script iterates over each campaign, calculating the median CPA and identifying AdGroups with CPA significantly higher than the campaign average. It uses the
- Output Preparation
- If anomalies are found, the script compiles them into a DataFrame, tagging each outlier with a descriptive message. If no anomalies are detected, it prepares an empty output DataFrame.
