Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Use SRISv2 with adaptively clipped importance sampling and information sharing across interventions | Best soft-intervention identification · Flow Cytometry | performance: more than 65% improvement | Helped |
| Use SRISv2 instead of SRISv1, reusing samples from earlier phases (ablation) | Best soft-intervention identification · Flow Cytometry | performance | Helped |
| Use SRISv2 rather than SR, which does not use information leakage | Best soft-intervention identification · Synthetic experiments, low divergence and high gap | simple regret | Helped |
| Use SRISv2 rather than CR with a static clipper | Best soft-intervention identification · Synthetic experiments, high divergence and high gap | simple regret | Helped |
| Replace adaptive clipping with a static clipper (ablation) | Clipped importance sampling · Synthetic experiments, high divergence and high gap | probability of error | Hurt |
| Use information leakage from other interventions rather than treating arms independently | Best soft-intervention identification · Synthetic experiments, low divergence and high gap | probability of error | Helped |
| Use SRISv2 rather than CR with a static clipper | Best soft-intervention identification · Synthetic experiments, low divergence and high gap | probability of error | No clear effect |
| Reuse samples from earlier phases, clipping them using the current phase criterion (ablation) | SRISv2 · Best soft-intervention identification | error and simple regret guarantees | No clear effect |
