Creative AI : a data-driven design approach for creative online ad optimisation using artificial intelligence and big data by Phay, Han

“…The research is structured in 7 chapters: (1) A Historical Perspective on Modern Advertising, looking at the way creative advertising agencies have evolved throughout the earlier years, (2) Present Day Advertising Technology, continuing the narrative post-internet through exploration of the advertising technology industry in present day, (3) Consumer Psychology, specifically on how creative design attributes in ads, such as visuals, text and sound, can subconsciously have an effect on humans and are important to the cause of advertising, (4) Data-driven design, a new way of looking at the digital online ad creation process, integrating big data and artificial intelligence to predict the optimal creative attributes in digital ads, (5) Multivariate Testing for Creative Optimisation, a controlled experiment to determine that generated ads do not underperform current human designed ads, (6) Translating Research into Product, where the ad agency as tech company model is brought forth through the form of a startup, and lastly (7) Future Opportunities, that identifies other areas of emerging tech and the implications on future research.…”
