<h2>Description</h2>

<p>X5 uses text messages to encourage customers to shop more. Sending texts is costly, so we would like to target a specific group of clients, typically those who would see this as a compelling event. In other words, the goal is to target those customers who wouldn&rsquo;t have made a purchase without this communication. The goal is to develop an algorithm that predicts whether or not we should send a text message to the client.</p>

<p>This is called uplift modeling problem, see <a href="https://youtu.be/yFQAIJBYXI0">this video</a> for more details (video is in Russian, you can use auto subtitles).</p>

<h2>Quality criteria</h2>

<p>In uplift modeling tasks, clients from the test sample are ranked using descending predicted communication efficiency. The top 30% are selected from such a ranked list as the &ldquo;most promising&rdquo; sub-sample. This sub-sample is used to estimate the average added conversion. In a sense, we calculate the average increase in response to the impact on a client.</p>

<h2>Prizes</h2>

<p>Prize fund is 400&rsquo;000 RUR. The winning team will receive 150&rsquo;000 RUR; second place gets 100&rsquo;000 RUR; third place receives 50&rsquo;000 RUR; fourth and fifth places both get 25&rsquo;000 RUR. There is also a nomination for the best open-sourced solution with a prize of 50&rsquo;000 RUR. Teams of up to 4 people from all over the world are allowed, regardless of actual physical location. You are entitled to participate in different teams in multiple Retail Hero contests.</p>
